Y spiltter connection... HELP!!!

[deserte4gle 10+ year member]

my HU have only 2 preout which i already connected to woofer's and mid's amps..

Forget about the electronic crossover or preamp as i dont have budget to get it....

My question is, can i connect another amp using 1 male 2 female Y splitter cables or vice versa?? can i connect the Y spiltter from the tweeter's n mid's amp and pull the rca from the HU??......like in this picture... http://www.bcae1.com/ycable.htm

In other words i want to play 3 amps but my HU preout is limited which is only 2 preout....

what do u mean by close enough? the distance between the HU and the amps or the distance between the two amps?? ....

if the rca's will reach the right holes its fine.one rca ran back to a female to dual male splitter will work.

so it seems that ive no prob to connect it coz my 2 amps just beside each other as i believe that the rca from the HU will connect the Y splitter perfectly...

by the way, im using HU pioneer 3050UB with 3 band EQ...... the setting for the tweeter is limited which have frequencies 3khz,8khz,10khz,12khz and Q factor 1N,2N,1W,2W... furthermore, my 2 channel tweeter amp doesnt have HPF setting but my HU got HPF setting which i believe it is for the component ONLY..... am i rite??? or the HPF setting at my HU is for the both tweeter n mid???
