truck_buster23 Posted May 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 I got a quick question, when using my 4 channel for my front and rear speakers what do I do with the head unit speaker wires? Should I put resistors or something on them or crimp something on them? Any help would be great. thanks,dan Quote Eclipse Hifonics Alpine Kinetik Optima Excessive Amperage alt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyBoy Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 yea or heat shrink, or tape them off. also, you couldve just bought a line driver instead of a new head unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean 371 Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 AudioControl makes some real good ones. Basically it takes and boosts your signal, up to 13v max.
