Hey peeps
I've got one set of rca outputs coming out my headunit but to run both my amps I need 2 rca outputs, I obviously knew this was just wondering if anyone could help me out on what the adaptor is that I need to run both amps and where I can get it from??
Cheers

you have a choice, if your amps have RCA buffered ouputs you can daisy chain them. Thats connecting RCA leads from your headunit to one amps RCA inputs, then RCA leads from the RCA outputs to another amp
Alternatively, you can get RCA Y-Splitters like THIS
let me know if you need any more help

Thanks for help guys but I'm still completly lost!
I'm running a sub off one amp and speakers off the other amp
How would those RCA Y Splitters work? If I've 4 inputs but only 2 outputs??
Sorry to be so stupid!

ok, you have two outputs, look at them y-splitters. On the right they have a socket. You'll need two y-splitters (one for L and one for R)
you would have a normal rca lead comming from your R output, then connect this to the socket of one of them Y-splitters. This will give you 2 R outputs. Do the same with your L output and then you also have 2 L outputs.
then connect a L and R to each amp
Job done
