[QUOTE="Abel2, post: 8717496, member: 681016"] Yes I got an aftermarket deck, Alpine CDE-147BT which goes 50 * 4 so not a whole lot either. Then I'm running a small 2 channel 300 watt amp (bridged) to a 12in Rockford fosgate P3.... Cab speakers and tweeters just run off the deck... So the Alpine has a total of three sets of RCA outputs... two sets for speaker outputs and then a single set RCA for a subwoofer output. But I've been tossing around the idea of takin that two channel 300 watt amp and just running my whole cab all six speakers as a left to right no fader front and back and then getting a new amp for the sub... That's why I was curious as to how the wiring to those tweeters should work if I was pushing more power and if I run them all as a one or two channel how I would adjust my crossover. I'm not too up to speed on RCA wiring and wattage distribution, so I figured this was a good place to find out... Another thing is if my Alpine deck is 50x4 and I add an RCA out to an amp to run my 6x9s and 6 1/2 I would still have the 4 channels and 50 watts from the deck, correct??then I could go six total channels correct.Two coming off the amp and the four from my original deck correct?
