Default SoundStream Speaker Setup

So I ordered the
Soundstream PN4.1000D 1000W 4-Channel Soundstream PN4.1000D 1000W 4-Channel
Amp and made my 6.5 speaker buckets, I have a 2000 Road King Non Fairing Setup, I have 6X9 in speakers the bags facing the rear tire and will be putting on the buckets on my crash bars. I want to hook up all four speakers, but I am only getting sound out of one channel whether it is the left or right when switched around. I thought if I had a four speaker system I could select one of the channel inputs and all four will be heard, I have a Smart Phone I am running with the RCA cords going straight to the back of the saddle bags. is ther any method to this or do I need something else.

I’m using a JL audio mbt-rx and using Bluetooth. It’s works well. I’ve also used the Cerwin-Vega Bluetooth and media button. That was nice as well.

I'm just taking a stab at this but do you have all four preamp inputs hooked up? That amp doesn't have a 2/4 channel switch like some amps do. If you only have one input pair (left/right) you will need a couple of Y adapters to feed the front and rear preamp inputs.

That is if I'm understanding your setup correctly.

Yes that is the setup, on my mobile I only have one set of Pre Amp inputs, so I guess I am going to have to get a set on yadapters for both the left and right channel, do you have a recommendation, for these or a brand.

About anything would work but I think a lot of folks here use the Stinger brand. You may want to search around though because most of them tend to have female ends on them and you will need male ends to plug into the amp. Maybe something like this:

2x 4x 7" RCA Audio Cable "Y" Adapter Splitter 1 Female to 2 Male Plug Cable

Hoyt is correct that you need a y connector to get all channels in operation with that amp.
