Since your questions are car audio related, and this site's focus is car pc, you'd find better reception for your questions over at www.caraudio.com.

Check if you amp as line level inputs. If so, you can splice the rear speakers into the amp, probably with a crossover, and drive them that way.

And an infraction.

Actually, he was posting in all caps (i.e. yelling). vBulletin parses that and makes every word have a single capital letter. Frankly, it looks worse this way, in my opinion.

Whatever.

I think it only parses if the whole post is in all caps or something. That way, you can use all caps for EMPHASIS.

Ummm....

What?

I can only get half of that post.

Try spellcheck, or typing out the full word or something that is at least readable if you're looking for advice.

I'll be glad to help, but if I can't understand what you're typing then

Cheers

BJ

Think of it this way. A forum site such as this one is very much like a library. Each time you post a\ question or a problem, you're basically standing on a table and announcing your question to everyone within earshot.

So the double post is like going into antoher area of the library and announcing the same question over again.

Looking at it from that perspective, it seems pretty rude, no?

Also, your language indicates that either English is not your primary language, or you're trying to talk like a hiphop thug. If the situation is the former, then you're doing a pretty good job of conveying your questions in a foreign language. If you're trying to sound like a hip-hop thug, please stop. It doesn't impress anyone.

Now...
Understand that your question is a very generalized car audio question. That's not a bad thing, but...
Considering that the focus of this forum is vehicle computing, you're far more likely to get a helpful answer in a timely manner on a forum that is devoted to car audio.
There are lots of guides and tutorials and such available on the internet. Google for them. Another option would be to look at the manuals for your sub(s) and amp(s). They should have wiring information there.

If your amps are wired up properly, they're not going to kill your battery. Do "your boys" know about car audio and vehicle electical systems for you to be able to trust their judgement? From what you said they said, I wouldn't, but that's just me. Hell, I'm a relative n00b to car audio installation, but I understand that you can wire hardware up without it draining the battery.

Here are the basics:
You're gpoing to power it straight from the battery, with a dedicated line.
Ground should run to a bolt on the chassis that is stripped of all paint (to ensure a good ground).
The amp should have a remote lead. That will be switched from an ignition source, which will trigger powering the amp on/off.

Again, read the manual for your amp(s). They'll give you the information you need to do the job properly.
