help hooking ps2 audio to headunit

Post by phillyMX3mayn »

i have the alpine cda-7873. im having trouble hooking up the audio from the ps2. the yellow ps2 video wire goes to the monitor. easy, that works fine. the 2 other audio rca's (red and white) go where? my headunit does have a auxilary mode. it also has 4 rca inputs. 2 for front, 2 for rear. if i plug the ps2 audio into the front audio on the headunit, then i only get sound out of the front speakers. if i plug them in the the rear audio inputs, then i only get sound from the rear speakers. how do i hook this up so that i have sound from all 4 speakers plus subs?
thanks

if you just got four RCA inputs on the deck. Then just split the two audio signals into four, and you'll be good. Otherwise check to see if there is an option to have only stereo in to the four speakers

to get the aux to work on the deck you need one of these accessories:

or
