splitting single bass knob to two amps


Recommended Posts

Im trying to figure out how i should do this so i don't mess up the amps, i have two jbl gto1400.1s, this is my diagram lol

The colors are the four wire colors that make the phone lines (RJ11), the top diagram is what would happen if i used the splitter i have, the bottom is what the wires normally do, im wondering if the fact that they dont flip 180 degrees will cause problems? thanks!

dont use that phone cord knob. get the RCA one. darvex.com sells one.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

mine has 4 pins, its RJ11, but its flips colors from one end to the other normally, but using the splitter it flips once then again after the splitter which makes it the same on both ends

I know that you could use a phone splitter with the old RF amps but I would just contact JBL and ask tech support most of the guys that I have talked too over the years at that company are pretty cool and know there shit

i called jbl and after being on hold for ~27 minutes i had a 45 second conversation with the tech support... he said it would be bad to use a splitter... so new question, which rca bass level controller do i get? PAC or peripheral?? or what others are there?
