    It doesnt matter which way you look them up as their is no left or right stereo.

    BTW, I have heard some good things about US Acoustics. Let us know what you think of the amp.

    i use to have a cheater usacoustic amp back in teh early 90's it did 150x2@4ohm 450x1@4ohm and like 800X2ohm. but the box stated different until i bench tested the amp and was like wow!!! so if the quality is still the same then its a solid amp.

    The INPUT side is for the signal comeing from the HU to your AMP. The OUTPUT side is so you can run another set of RCA cable to another AMP if you don't have more RCA Pre-Outs on the head unit. Since that amp is MONO, it will not matter which(Left or Right) get hooked up.

    Hope that helped.

    Later !!!

    Yep, just make sure that the RCA coming from the Head Unit is going to the INPUT side of your amp. Like I said, the OUTPUT from the amp is to add another AMP if you don't have multiple RCA PREOUTS from the headunit.

    Pretty simple.

    I think the question was already answered. By actual stereo people. Later, QD.
