    Yes i am using the sub out on the head unit. I have an older pioneer two channel amp that is stable down to two ohms and the subs are 4 ohms also still have the kenwood 9103d 1600 watt mono amp

    if your using sub out to 6x9's that is the problem, wrong frequencies they will distort pretty quickly

    use the rear preouts for the amp on the 6x9's be sure to have a good distribution block for power, and I like to run a relay when doing multiple amps on the remote turn on to keep from burning it up

    you need to pull the radio out, and run an rca line from the radio to the amp, then the 6x9's hook to the amp
