1- Take the the four Speaker Level...and buy a LOC ( Line Output Converter ) SLC-4 Scosche ...and drive the amp 2- Buy a EQ ....and use the output ( 4 RCA ) and drive my amp 3- Buy a Crossover ...with four rca output Thank's again to take time to respond me |
ok here goes - see if i got this right.
You have 4 outputs from your head unit right. front and rear, but no sub out. If this is the case buy a splitter that changes the single rear output to two ouputs - curcuit city has them. run the one output to your to your 4 channel and the other to your sub. use the volume remote off the sub amp, looks like a telephone jack, to control the sub volume. set your gains and HP / LP (60-80 for the sub)so they blend properly. If your head unit has no pre outs i would recommend looking for a different unit. Those converters are garbage for the most part unless you send big bucks, and replacing the head unit is cheaper. Hope this helps. |

typ thing will work but i like what he/she said "If your head unit has no pre outs i would recommend looking for a different unit. Those converters are garbage for the most part unless you send big bucks, and replacing the head unit is cheaper." |
What I did was use a LOC. and ran those RCAs to a crossover unit. Then those RCA's to your amp.
