    what is the best way to connect four amps to my eq

    2 sub amps have one sub amp going into the other, one amp per 12' sub then the 4 channel amp for the interior an a 2 chanel amp for the 8 subs in the rear but the eq has front ,rear and subs out puts.

    want to control rear 8 subs and intertior better.
    dont want the s8subs to get highs signal

    What is your complete system? What amps, what subs, what EQ, etc...

    Do your amps have low-pass filters on them? Some EQ's have high pass that may be determined by the low pass....Sometimes they are fixed and sometimes they are adjustable or choosable...

    Well

    i am thinking of connecting the eq to the four chanel amp then the connect the amp for the 8 'subs to sub output on eq, the add a line driver for the 12i subs amp.

    remeber 4 amps and the eq only has 3 sets of outputs

    Um...your posts are really confusing.

    But as for the sub amps...all you need is the sub out on the eq then daisy chain the sub amps together

    Simple as that

    What is the best way to send signal to four amps from radio and for the best sound and control?

    Welcome to the site Xlaudio. Your first few posts are rather confusing to be honest!!!!!!

    You say you have an EQ with front, rear and sub outs. Simply wirie the sub amps to the output of the EQ , and hook the 4 channel amp amp to the front and rear outs of the EQ....For multiple amps running off of one set of rca outputs, you can use rcs "y" adaptors....not ideal, but will probably work best in your situation.

    ok, sounds likea plan. any other way to wire it. you said not ideal....
    how would u do it?
    or should i use eq for tew amps and a bass driver for the sub amps

    Ideally your sub amps would all have input/output rca jacks.... then you could just simply "daisy chain" the signal from amp to amp to amp to amp using short rca cords. With that eq you have, may think about a line driver....something to increase the voltage ouput from the eq....NOT necassary though. Hook it up with the "y" connectors and see how it performs, you may be perfectly happy with it.

    thanks vik

    i like that way it sounds, i do that ve sub amps slave one into the other. yup four pairs of rca and six pairs of outputs on the eq.

    stil thinking og line driver.
