if your head unit only has 1 pre-out then split it.

if you split it though it halfs the power output of your amp, if you don't want to use splitters run your rca's to one of the amps inputs then get another set of rca's from that amps output into the others input

iv got a amp with a front and rear setting and a out, iv pluged the rca cable into the front in, ran anther rca cable from the out too the rear port thingy, and i can run both!

if you can read that :lol: but then again iv got the power to do that 2600watts :wink:
