My dad keeps telling me that i do not need to hook my amp up to my head unit and that I can hook it up threw the back 2 speakers straight into my 1800 watt amp then into my 2 Kicker Solobaric L7
fo sho, there are called pre outs for a reason, pre outs mean the signal is not amplified, which means the amp can amplifie it withg less distortion. when u use a speaker signal, that is already amplified, which means your amp has to shrink down the signal to an acceptble level then amplifiy it, causing more distortion.
