Every Sony MD unit I've ever seen has at least 2 sets of RCA's on it. I'd
double check the eq as well.

I got my amps hooked up last night finally, and I noticed that even
though I had the amps turned all the way up, cranking the volume of my
deck to full throttle did not drive the speakers that loud. In fact, if
I were driving on the freeway, I know I would have a difficult time
hearing the audio. This should not be the case, given that my amp is a
170 x 4, and my speakers are 65 watt, 4 ohm speakers.

Now, the head unit does not seem to have low level outputs, and it
connects to the input of an EQ, then the EQ has front / rear outputs to
the amp.

I will mess around with it more tonight, but I wanted to see if anyone
had any suggestions on where to look for settings before I went back at
it.

The amps a HiFonics Zeus 6400 and a Brutus 1000 D
The head unit is a Sony Xplode MD Deck, and the EQ is a Pioneer 10 band
