I am wanting to setup my surround sound with two Amps, one for front and one for rear. I also have a third party sub that I was hoping to use with the Amps. My questions are:

  1. Is this possible? Right now I have it setup, but the sub is not working.
  2. If so, does the sub have to be connected to the Amp driving the front channel speakers? Right now, my sub is wired where the rear amp is, not where the front is located.

Yes, this is possible. One Amp will power the two front speakers and one Amp will power the two surround speakers. The subwoofer needs to be connected to the first Amp powering the front speakers. When the Amp is being used as surrounds, it disables the subwoofer output.

Thanks for the response. While it’s not the best news that the sub has to be connected to the front Amp, it certainly is good to hear it’s capable. Now to rewire my speakers………..
