another JL Cleansweep question..

I just realized that I'll need a RCA splitter to run speaker wires to a sub amp in the boot.
Does it matter if I connect the rca splitter to the front or rear channel to the sub amp? I've read that the lower frequencies drop off sharply on the rear channels. ( Boost radio) However, perhaps that doesn't matter if the Cleansweep can correct the drop off in the rear channels... I don't know, this gets so complicated...
Any recommendation for a RCA splitter? The all the same?

Thanks

Scott

This depends on the system you have in your car. The Base System does drop off on the rear channels. The HiFi System is not perfect but is close to flat out of the head unit.

Note both the Base and HiFi use the Boost Radio.

The clean sweep can do some miracles but if there is nothing there to begin with there is nothing for it to crate miracles with.

No recommendations, just make sure they are good quality.
