I just installed a set of Boston Acoustics FS-80 components in the front. They are running off an Alpine 2-channel amp and it sounds great. Well I also have a 12-inch Kenwood sub that previously ran off the Alpine amp. I can't afford to buy another amp right now so I want to try something out. The rear speaker deck has been removed along with the stock Mach 460 speakers that were there. All that's left are the harnesses. Well I connected those harnesses back to the stock Mach 460 amps and then ran the rear right channel to the sub. The bass is great now, even better than when the sub ran off the Alpine amp. I did a little research previously on Visteon's website and it said that the rear speakers are dual-coil voice coil speakers and the amps can handle frequencies under 20 Hz. There shouldn't be a problem running the sub off one of the amps.
Anyway, the sub is a lot louder than the front speakers. So is there something I can install that will allow me to adjust the output of the sub (or rear right speaker output)? My Alpine headunit has a fader control but the sub still overpowers the front speakers.
Thanks!
