ok i might get flamed for asking this because im sure its somewhere on this forum but i cant find it. but im going to run two amps and my head unit only has one set of pre outs, so how do i run a second set of rca's to my head unit? and can i bridge my power line between the two amps? thanks.. oh and another question im going to use a single chanel amp made by blaupunkt and it has 2 sets of pre-outs on it, i was wondering which set i connect the rcas to. the help is very much appreciated.

    If your amp has a set of 'preouts' you only need to run one set of rca's from the deck and a shorter set between the one amps output and the others input.

    Do not jump power wires from amp to amp, use a distribution block.

    One set of rca's on the amp should say input and one output or bypass, if not refer to the manual.

    might want to check Crutchfield
    there is installation information and adapters available

    for example :

    thanks man i was about to ask about what you just explained here. which if im understanding is i can run a rca cable from one amp to another and then run another set of rcas out of one of the amps to the head unit right?
