    so you are only using one pair of the RCA inputs, correct?

    you want the fader switch set to OFF

    then you want to use the left pair of RCA's (amp 1)

    you should only use the gain for amp 1 if i remember correctly (though i may be wrong there so just try it and see)

    I’ll give that a try and see how it works. It’s funny. I can build all kinds of things but get thrown for a loop when it comes to audio

    Just a bit of a update. I got everything working. And it sounds amazing. Great clarity and volume. Got the bases for the door panels glassed today. Gonna call it a night and hopefully finish them out tomorrow. Fiberglass is a whole new beast to me but i think it’s turning out good so far

    Glad you got the amp figured out!
    Fiberglass is something I never tried my hand at so props to you for giving it a go!

    Ignore the messy workbench. Got quite a few projects going on right now
