Default Is This possible? Daisy chain amps

Evenig all,

Got the bose system and would like to keep the stock deck for now. I have the following amps

PG XS4300
RF 1000bd

Here is what I am thinking. Since the PG XS 4300 has high signal inputs, could I tap into the rear speaker wire to get the source signal and then feed this signal to the 1000bd? I do not want to change my components for the moment but would like to have the amp ready to go when I do.

I this even possible or will I have to go with a LOC?

Thanks for your help

They make wire to RCA adapters so you can tap the rear speakers for an input and use that instead. Do this twice and your golden. I know JL Audio makes them, Phoenix Gold I believe also makes them. You can get cheapy ones also. Its not really daisy chaining the amps either. I thought you had meant running your amps parallel to each other to boost power but anyhow. I hope that helps.

Just reread and am changing my statement. Do this once and use the output from the amp with the higher voltage if it has signal outs.

but since my 4 channel amp has high signal inputs, cant I just tap in the rear speaker wires using that?

Also, would the sound quality be better with a Line out converter or the high imput signal from the amp?

thanks for any help,

They both sound like ****, so just use the high level inputs on the PG amp and jump a RCA line off the aux outputs to the RF amp.
