How to hook up an amp to OEM HU

vitonxl · 05-26-2005, 09:50 PM

Hey guys and ladies!
Thanks for your help in picking my audio equipment. I got a 2 channel (3 channel capable) 1200 watt amp and two 10" Audiobahn subs 600 watt RMS. I'm going to run the amp to my front speakers in the future so that's why I got that amp. Anyways I was thinking to run the audio off the back speakers to the amp so I don't have to run rca patch cords front HU. I know others that have done it.
Does anybody out there have a step by step instructions on how to install an amp for an '00 A4? I know crutchfield gives out directions so I'm hoping somebody out there has them.
I would really appreciate your guys help.
Thank you.

Pretty sure the amps for the back speakers are in the speakers, if it's not a Bose system at least. You should be able to tap the line-level back there instead of running a cable all the way up front. Don't use the high-level outs because you're too lazy to run a wire though

And for the love of god, lose the rims!
