Alright, well I got my Legacy La290, to power my 6x9s. Now, That will be connected into the back of my deck, 4 channel outputs.
Now, I will be running an amp for my subs. ( Havent decided the subs, or amp yet ). But how will I go about connecting that amp, to my deck as well ? like, just strictly base. ?
Thanks.

Does your deck have two sets of RCA outs? If so, use one to each amp. If not, you can use RCA splitters.

Kenwood KDC-205.
My 1st HU I got off ebay.

Also, what would be good to run to my LA290 for my 6/9s. The High input, or low input ?
It came with both wires.

what are you talking about

his mono block amp can use the remaining RCA's, first set goes to the amp for the 6x9's, second set to the sub amp, I've done that before with previous decks
