Eq and amp install

[jeff_s]

I picked up a Clarion XC1410 amp with a Clarion EQs755 (it was a package deal). My stock head unit has 3 sets of preamp outputs (Front, rear, Sub)
The EQ has RCA inputs for Main in. Can I use the EQ if my radio doesn't have "Main out"?

Thanks in advance.

I would either use the front or rear output, you will just lose the fade function.

Fade on the head unit?

Fade on the head unit?

Yes. Fade anywhere...as in control of front/rear speakers. You will only have balance...L/R. You have to pick either front/rear outs, go in to your EQ, and then out of your EQ to amp. If your amp has 4 channels with 2 sets of inputs then you could have fader control without the EQ. Tradeoff.

Yep, as described by @scokill . I have the last version of that EQ and it's great if you want to use more than 1 amp.

Thanks for the quick responses!

@jeff_s I have the Clarion EQs755 with a 5 channel amp and you will not loose F/R fade as you will now need to use the fade feature on the EQ it self. I currently use it to fade from the cockpit speakers to the swimdeck speakers.
