Simple amp question, please!
|
slaya Unregistered guest | Hey, I have a Pioneer DEH-2700 HU and I would like to amplify my 4 car speakers with an external amp. The headunit only has one amp preout. I am wondering, if I get a 4 channel amp is it possible to connect my 4 speakers (fronts and rears) to the amplifier and have it actually recognize the fronts and rears as themselves? what i'm trying to say is.. if the song fades from front to rear, would the speakers fade from front to rear if I amplify them externaly? I was wondering maybe the "speaker level inputs" would help me achive this but i'm not sure? thanks guys. |

Your situation is unfortunate, but a new headunit can be had for less than $100 from ebay with all the necessary pre-outs. Right now your cheapest option is to simply buy two Y-interconnects to split the single pre-out into two channels-but the fader won't function as you have already mentioned. |
