Yes absolutely. Your amplifier may have built-in speaker level in or you'll have to pick up a high to low convertor. See a local stereo shop and they'll be able to sell you what you need.

i have this amp. you need to use the white adapter that came with it.
connect the wires to the speaker wires on the HU and you set to go.

I don't have that adapter cause I bought it from a friend and he gave me all of what he had for it.

Do you know where I could get one?

go to a stereo shop and get a Line Out converter... tell em what your doin and they will hook you up... unless you have a Rockford dealer in town, try to order the plug from them

Isn't the plug small with four wires in it??? Gray's and white's??? If so then an MTX plug would work with it too. There are a few manufacturers that use the same type of plug. MTX, Rockford are a couple that I can remember now.

i am not sure. but to i still would order a new one just to make sure it is the right one.

I've got a converter just laying around. It's one from Wal-mart but it works. I'll have to see if I have the directions for hooking it up.

yes, as mentioned all you need is a line-level converter (about $20) or you can buy an amp that has speaker level inputs and use that, make sure your amp also has a low pass filter.
