Running Subs and Front Speakers off a 4 channel amp with an external low pass x-over
Hey guys,
I've got my subs hooked up on two channels-my amp didn't have a low pass so I have my rca's running from the hu to an electronic low pass x-over, then to my amp so only the low frequencies come out of the subs. I want to run my front speakers off the other two channels of the amp, but I want to run my highs through them. I've searched and messed around with the wiring, but I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Any suggestions, or would I just be better off getting another amp to power my front speakers? I'm sure the answer is obvious, but I'm new to this so thanks in advance.

If there is only one set of RCA outputs on the HU install a set of RCA "Y" adpt. on the RCAs before the x-over, then one "Y" to the x-over then out of the x-over to two inputs on the amp and the other "Y" to the other two inputs on the amp. Another way would be to replace the x-over with a 2way hi/low pass, a better way to do it.
What kind of HU is it? are you sure there is only one set of RCA outputs
