I have a issue doing this in home audio. from a Y splitter off my EQ to 2 Kenwood KM-209 house amps. I don't always run both amps and I noticed if I only have 1 of the 2 amps powered on the subwoofers don't move the way they should. They almost move like they are free air or something, if I turn the 2nd amp on, they are all normal again. Why would this happen? I've been trying to figure this out for years. I've tried different sterios, different rca splitters and cables. Any help would be appreciated. If I leave both amps on every time I want to play 1 set of speakers and I don't even need to engage the speakers with the ab switch, as long as both amps are on, it's fine. It's so strange.

@BlowByMeToo Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the Voltage staying even comment. I was wondering. The one thing you should have mentioned was how to specifically connect the 2 RCA cables to the split lines. Some people might try to connect the lines to their new amps and have both right channels going into both Left and Right of one amp then both Left channels going into left and right of the other amp. That could be tricky if you don't know what you are doing.

@ATLieN562 5 ай бұрын

Glad to read this. So when you do split how he did for Left side goes to both amps left side and Right side would go to each amp Right side versus if you plug say Right one to one amp thinking left and right its wrong and same if other one. So essentially each Y from one side goes to 2 different amps correct?

question. One set of RCA cables (L&R), split into 2 lefts and 2 rights. 1 L&R hooked to 2 channel stereo amp. 1 L&R hooked to mono amp. Will the L&R signal be combined inside the mono amp? Therefore combining the L&R signal at the 2 channel amp as well? Causing a loss of stereo?

What's up Jacob my name is Ryan here's my situation currently I'm running a stock head unit and I have a broken 4 output RCA converter it's going to be a month before I can get a new one however I have a spare but it's a single output ,however that single output only one channel is working, and I have four amplifiers, so I have a y splitter coming from my converter going to 1 amplifier from that amplifier I have a exact one which I'm using a output from that amplifier running to the twin, then from that one that output is going to my 4-channel amplifier. Now for some reason when I hooked up some more wire connectors it doesn't matter from the converter or from another amplifier as soon as I go to my fourth amplifier the whole system sounds wack so it sounds decent running the 3 amps however I want that fourth one so I want to run another RCA converter however but I want to know is if I can run one channel out of my head unit the ties into both left and right of the RCA converter or should I just run that one channel of my head unit to one of the left or right of the RCA converter then use a wire adapter like I did with my other RCA converter?

What's the purpose of having an amp in and out for your RCA's on a 4-channel or a 2-channel class d etc on sub amplifier where it says amp in I thought that your RCA's go to first amp then where it says amp out you take them RCA to next amp and then if you want to add another amp on top of that or more you just jump off the last amp that you have your RCA's going to so in order to get your high amplifier to work right and sound to come through it without using the high input jack to the speakers or the low input jack for the subwoofers if you don't have RCA's you got to do a pig tail like you have here and you can just go off one set of RCA's you can just use your sub RCA create 2 RCA's coming off that to your high and then two coming off going to your sub and it doesn't see a difference I always thought that the sub RCA was made internally different in the head unit specifically for low bass only type of frequency the mids and highs free different type of frequency through the RCA so basically you taught me something no matter if I got four sets of RCA's coming from the back of my radio if I got two amplifiers for 3 amplifiers all I have to do is just run a wire adapter off of one of the other of the RCA coming from the head unit that being said the other ones are there just kind of a backup or a spare in case you blow an RCA channel you have three other sets so that means you can run your sub off a high or a mid-range Jack coming from the head unit I believe that's what you're saying it's been awhile since I hooked up double or multiple amps I did it some years ago and I couldn't remember but I thought you just jump from one amp to another where it says in and out the out would be to your next amp and that's all you would need to get sound coming through your amplifier to your speakers I did that recently a day ago and I was getting a weird noise coming from the speaker so that probably explains that I don't jump to another amp off the previous yep I got to come directly from the head unit to get the right RCA frequency for each individual specific amp ?

Man all I can find are 1male to 2female splitters. Anyone know of a 1female to 2female?

Where is sound test

@marksabota4056 Жыл бұрын

Wouldn't this splitter drop the quality and voltage of the signal a lot? Since there is so many outputs out of one RCA? Maybe better to use sound processor in this case?

Seen people have up to 8 amps and work just fine? I doubt that’s something to worry about but if it’s full sound quality then yes

@JacobViral2 I recently installed a passive line output converter for a Sub amplifier all great no issues. Now I want to install a second amplifier a 4channel I usually use an Lc2i for this purpose. My question is can I use my existing LOC and connect it to a new Rockville R7EQ that has sub out ,rear out and front rca output. Or should I still get the LC2I ..Thank you
