Hi, I recently installed a xplode l600x, 6.5 speakers in the front and 4x6's in the back (all that fit). Anyway what I wanted to do was install a small amp I had lying around to just power the 6.5's in the front because it is only 2 channel and non bridgeable then power the back ones through the deck. I just bought a 12" sub and was wondering how to hook both the amps up to the deck. There are only 2 rca plugs and obviously i need 4, is there a converter capable of doing this? Thanks

All you need is a couple of Y-cables - ones that have one RCA male plug and two RCA female plugs. I've done this on many installs and have never had a problem.
