Some audio system questions..

Hi there,

I have a few questions regarding my hopeful instal for my type r:

I am looking to replace all the speakers (pos with alpine type r's) and run them off a 4 channel amp (around 300/400w) and install a sub in the boot with its own amp which can be removed when needs be.

The sub i am looking at is an all in one unit from alpine the SWD-3000 (http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/pro...s_id/3464.html)

My first question is when running to amps i will run one cable from the engine bay and use a split thingy from autoleads to run to each amp. With the amount of power the amps use (shouldnt be to much im not after 1000's of watts!) will i need to install a 2nd battery or a capacitor? I would rather not have to!

My 2nd which is the easiest way to connect the amps to the head unit? I was wondering about putting a line converter from the rear speakers and using RCA input to the amps. Will i need 2 line converters one for each amp? (ie one from the front speakers for the speaker amp and one from the rears for the sub)?

Im sure i will have more questions!!

Many thanks in advanced
