yes splitters reduce the power...but its hardly noticable.
if your amps are to power 2 subs you wont notice it at all...

or put a female to 2 male splitters at the amp end so you dont have to put 2 rca leads in. just saves effort really

Cheaper to buy the splitters and one more set of RCA's like i said. if the amps arnt close enough with the splitters on the end of the RCA's at the amp end would mean buying another 2 sets.
