So I have taken the 2 channel and then y split it at the amp so it plugs into the amp correctly and gets full power. SO after all that it was senseless to try and have them on individual channels if the HU doesnt think it is anyway

And obviously the True fronts are on channels 1 an 2 and the true rears are on 3 and 4. So it can be tuned right on the amp
Horrible way to run a system. You really should get a deck with 6ch rca's so you can run it like it should be run, the SQ improvement by doing so will be dramatic, far more dramatic than the one you noticed by changing rca's and you'll have more control over the sound than you do now. Not to mention that splitting the rca's like that via Y adapter essentially halves the rca voltage, resulting in a dirtier signal and causing the amp to work that much harder. I really think you should have a new head unit at the top of your list of things to buy for your system, seriously.

Im probably going to put in the Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.2 sound processor in anyway once everything in my new system is in.

I believe I did note that in my "new system" thread

I don't know how that will work, but hopefully it will. Have you looked in to it? Reason I ask is because i'm curious as to how the 360 can get a front input only, and then turn it into front and rear. But then again, I know the 360 has gobs of tuning options so surely you'd be setting everything up from it anyway so it might just work out. And for the record, I will be jealous if/when you get that in, it's a nice piece

it can i believe, but a ms-8 will be much better at such a thing at only a cool 700$ but hey it's def worth it if you put the time into the wiring, the biggest hasle it is , is the wiring.
