Good morning, looking for a bit of insight to see if I can amplify some sound for cheap. I have a 2012 SCREW with SYNC (Gen1) w/o nav. I have a PAC adapter behind the dash that has 2 pr of RCA outs for Front/Rear channel sound. I currently have the front going to a 2 ch amp to power my front components, and the rear to a small sub amp. If i were to get RCA Splitters and split the front channel of the PAC Adapter into 2 sets of outputs, could i use those going into the front/rear of a 5 channel amp, and the "rear" output of the PAC adapter to the sub input of the 5 ch amp for the sub? really just looking to amplify the rear speakers more than the stock head unit does as the rears currently get drowned out by the sub. I apologize if this description is vague, please let me know if anyone needs any more info to help me answer this question. thanks!
Looking to get this 5ch amp to replace the two amps that i currently have that power the front components/subwoofer (infinity reference components / 12" shallow mount kicker 350W RMS Sub)

yes that will work if you split the rca signal to run the fronts and rears. You will lose front to rear fade though. If you're not worried about that, then go for it. Only other option is using those splitters on the rear outputs to retain front and rear fade and you're just splitting that rear signal to the sub. Either way would work though.
