Hey guys to help clarify I have 1 red and 1 white out put on myhead deck, and 2 white and 2 red inputs on my amp, so tomorrow I'm goin to get 2 splitters one for red and one for white so I can run all 4 channels.
Sorry bout any confusion.

Too easy mad dog, just use your gains to bring the front speakers slightly louder and you'll be in business.
Play a song you know well, close your eyes, you want to hear them as if they're coming from an imaginary stage on your bonnet. (Of course this varies from person to person as to what sounds good) But it's usually a good measuring stick.

Hey I put in the splitters today and connected another set of speakers, it sounds GREAT,
I put the splitters at the amplifier end, and I'm using 1 RCA cord, does that matter?

The way you've done it you should have lost your fader adjustment. I'd be splitting at the output on the head unit, then running 2 set's of RCA's to your amplifier.

Exactly, and he'll need two sets of 5m RCA cables, not to mention 1 male to 2 female splitters.

As an alternative which allows fading is the item below.....you will need 2x RCA 5m cables though (if mounted on the dash).

Yer, the way I have it now will be fine from what I can gather, only I won't have any fader controls. Unless I get a splitter with a fader control built in:)
