mono rca out of dvd player
Tuesday, March 17, 2009 11:24 AM
ok so i just bought a new dvd player and i was hooking it up and i realized it has a mono amp wire to run to the amp..ive hooked up alot of systems before and this is the first that I have seen this...do i just hook up the mono wire and call it a day? or do i need to hook up my other and rca to another jack in the back of the headunit?

Depends, not really enough information to give good advice, what size amp? channels? amount of woofers? impedance? single voice coil, dual voice coil? bridgeable? ect..


Mine's the same I just bridged it, and run the speakers parallel..
But mines capable of that. You don't want to hook it up wrong and throw too much of a load on your amp, ect...

yeh i was thinkin of running a y splitter from my rcas into the amp...i dont see how the mono rca wire matters for the bridge or anything but i have a 15" 4ohm kicker L7 wired to 2 ohms, powered by a 1000.1 kicker amp...

One speaker? just run it mono.

(the bridge matters for impedance, and the load you're putting on the amp.. )

Yeah... if its for subs just get a Y-adapter. Bass is mono since. Just look at home theater set-ups, all you need is one sub because you can't really tell which direction low frequencies come from.

your not understanding his question, hes asking how to hook up the 2 rca's on the back of the headunit when it only has 1 rca subwoofer output.

to the op, im assuming you have either a jensen, dual, or valor flip out dvd player? just use a y splitter.
