Dual Amps 3 speakers

[stapes779]

hey guys, new to DIY Audio and I may have a stupid question but oh well. Anyway I have a 15 and 2 12's in my truck with an amp for each. I have the rca's running from the amp for the 15 into the amp for the 12's. my question is does the amp for the 15 add any power to the amp for the 12's through the rca cables in any way? The reason I am asking is because every since I added the 15 the twelves havent sounded the same even when I turn the 15 all the way down so I can adjust the 12's so the 15 doesnt abstruct me being able to hear the 12's clearly.

Thanks in advance

Hey,
is there any reason u are mixing 12's with 15's?
like are there different x-over points?
maybe the problem is one amp cuts out the lower/higher frequency resulting in less sound

well I have the 12s for the hard hitting bass and the 15 for the low bass but the only reason I have the rca's running from the amp for the 15 is so I didnt have to run another set of rca's from the radio all the way back, plus I am running out of room to hide wires.
