can anyone tell me the best way to hook up a 4 channel amp when u only have one set of rca preouts from stereo?? like should u split it from the head unit and run 2 pairs of rca's or can you run one set to the amp then go from the preout on the amp back in to the other input on the same amp??? |

you can either by rca splitters and split it from the head unit and run two sets of rca cables. but the cheaper way would be to run a rca cable from the head unit and then back at the amp use two spliters (1 female 2 male) and use them to go into the amp. |
