Hi all,
So I replaced my shitty '07 non-premium HU with a JVC. I've really liked it and adding a 12" sub+amp (~1500W, monoblock) was easy. So now I want to add an amp for the other channels--I have a pretty nice amp I snagged off CL that would work well--I think--but have some other prospects.
Here's my problem, or misunderstanding, or just idiotness: my HU provides 4 channels of pre-amp (RCA) output; x-over supports the sub, "sub/rear", "front/rear", and "sub/sub". If I add a 4-channel amp, how would I select/differentiate the rear from the sub? Or am I screwed and need to buy an HU with 5- or 6-channel pre-amp output? I'm contemplating only amping the the fronts or masquerading the soundbar as fronts with the front pre-out, as the sub eats the rear out. Has anyone done this? Or had a similar issue?
Thanks my friends.
PS: I'm adding another sub tomorrow. I'll post pics. The bass is kickass,,, I don't expect great sound, just want better sound; I run topless :thumb: and tube half doors--getting ****ing cold in CO--so, I'm trying to buy everything (except the sub setup--thank you Prime) and, though I live in a low-to-no crime town east of the PRB, I still don't want to attract more attention... than I already do (not on purpose, not bragging: my OE DS door got ****ed, so I said **** it and waxed instead of shaved my rig.
