Polk...anyone...need wiring diagram

CRTguys

Can someone provide me with a wiring diagram for this system.

My HU has (2) pre-outs (front and rear)

I am running (2) sets of MMC6500 components (2 in rear) (2 in front)

I am running (2) 400.4 amps

I have fronts hooked up to one amp

I have rears hooked up to the other amp

I have the speakers wired per Polk's Instructions that use the Pre-Eq button

My power is all hooked up and working. Is there something I should be doing different based on this set up with 2 amps and 4 speakers?

Thanks:)

the c500.1 is a d class amplifier used for subwoofers. are you sure you don't mean the c400.4 ?

Here you go.

...i'm at work and i'm bored. You're lucky

i did that diagram kinda quickly, so you might want someone to look it over. If you don't know what you're doing, though, I'd recommend getting someone to help you with your wiring.

That wiring diagram is purely...magic. Nice job.

Thanks, I will try that tomorrow. Hope it solves my problem. My next question will be adding a sub to the system....using a separate amp 500.1 to a 12" sub

I have that setup right now. What sub are you using? and is it svc or dvc? either way you can wire it like the diagram i attached. (you can also find the same wiring diagram on page 14 of the manual. )

I was just asking about your sub so it's in the correct power range. My setup requires 3 amps also, except mine are going to be 2 c500's and 1 c400. Right now I'm temporarily using one c500.1 to power a momo 12" svc. Even though its only giving it 350 watts it sounds great. I cant wait untill i pickup a pair of SR's to replace this momo

ps. The second pic is me testing 2 of the 3 amps. The wiring will be a LOT cleaner once I'm done

Wow.... that wiring looks dangerous.

Clean that up soon

Well, I do not have sub outs on my HU but I think my head unit is giving me the trouble. Your wiring diagram worked well however I need to either leave the HU in FULL front fader or FULL rear fader and wire accordingly otherwise if I use the fader to fade between front and rear the speakers sound really bad on low amounts of volume.

Since I do not have sub outs on my HU, I think a new HU is in order as well. This system is in my boat and it came stock with a Clarion HU which does OK for the unit.

Thanks again for your help.

Glad I could help


...and the wiring looks much cleaner, now. That was when I was first testing both amps before hiding all the wires and making it look nice. But it still looks like crap until I finish my damn sub box and amp rack. Its taking me forever!
