Powering components with monoblock amps

I know its possible and i know people have done it before. How do you power your components with two monolock amps? on the deck, theres the front preamp outputs which are red and white...one is right +/- and the other is left +/-. So how would i hook up the two monoblock amps to the deck?...using only one (either the white or red) rca cable?

What do you mean DLS A3 are monoblock amps, but they still have a red and white output, so what are you asking here.

Well, any monoblock amp. I have an xtant A4004T biamped into a pair of mb quart pwe's. I also have a xtant 121m laying around not doing anything. So I was wondering if I bought another 121m then I could use two of those to power my components w/ 125 watts a piece. I am just a little bit confused about the wiring aspects of the setup.

I wouldn't do it. You're better off using your 4 channel and wiring the components active.

What headunit are you using? Maybe instead of wiring bi-amped(which isn't bad) you can use the cd players onboard crossovers to wire them active-depending on your headunit.

What are you using for a sub amp? Maybe that will work better than what you are using?

I have an old alpine deck, 7892, and running a rockford power 450s. The crossover settings from my alpine EQ, deck, and amps dont go high enough that I can use their crossover settings. I was just thinking of more ways that I could get more power for my components
