Thread: pairing amp to speakers.

I'm running RCAs to the amp for its input, and I'll be using 14 gauge wire for the speakers.

Okay I looked at my headunit

It looks like it has 3 RCA pre-outs (1 I hooked to sub already) I can use RCA cables for input of amp like you're doing. For the output of amp should I take 14 gauge wire to my old wire and pull it through dash then hook to amp? Also, where is a good spot to mount a 4channel amp for main speakers/ where are you putting yours?

One more thing. Where is the head unit's amp? Will I miss the power from it or will the signal be automatically paired together since the RCA inputs for my new amp are coming from my head unit?
