component wiring
My diamond audio set has crossovers with both + and - on the in and out side for both the tweeters and woofers. I know how to wire the out but not the in from the amp. I have only the front channel on amp for components.. the crossovers are both active or passive..the instructions were missing from the box.

you're using one amplifier channel to drive both the L+R components? Am I understanding that correctly? So then you need to know what the impedence of your components is and decide what load the amp can drive. Assuming they're 4ohm and the amp is two ohm stable run the +/- from the amp to one XO + to + and - to - and then a speaker wire from the + in on one XO to the + in on the other and then - to -
if I'm misunderstanding and you have two front channels you'd wire from the amp to each XO and I don't understand what the confusion is, sorry.
