    You do realize the 5802 is NOT common ground and add'l procedure's are needed?

    Plus I am not understanding your question based on how you've worded it. Also the RCA's have nothing to do with hooking to the actual SDA's.

    Please explain futhur

    Hi. I know the 5802 do not have common ground and need to run wire in. Can I B wire speaker to amp or just used main only. The othe Q was about pre amp to power amp. Can I use cable from RCA out of pre amp to Balance in on power amp. Thanks

    I am sorry, and I don't mean this to be rude, but I can't understand your question. I assume English is not your native language.

    Go here Adcom

    and down load the owners manual, it will show you how to hook up a pre-amp.

    Yes, with the proper adaptor(s) or if you have cables with RCA on one end and XLR on the other. Don't buy these special because you won't be getting any of the benefit of the balanced (XLR) connection.

    Why are you wanting to hook it up this way? Why not balanced to balanced or rca to rca?

    Yes English is not my native language and I am trying to know what is the best way to use that amp. I had blow up 5800 before because I did not know about the common ground. I am asking two thing in that post. # 1 did any one used RCA to balance cable to hookup pre to power amp ?. # 2 B wiring speaker to power amp have a good sound or just used singel wire. Thanks for putting up whit me.:)
