I'm installing the Soundstream Reserve HDHU14+ in my 17 RGS. Already had a RF aftermarket amp and fairing speakers hooked up to factory hu. My question is should I use RCA's on new Hu or just use same wiring setup I had with the old hu? Also will I need to reset any gains or hp, lp on the amp? TIA

RCA's and yes, you need to adjust gains, preferably in a means to see clipping. Bypass is set you your speakers capabilities, so if those are not changing you should be good.

Would that RF amp(TM400x4ad) be enough power for a pair GZ yellow basket NEOs in the fairing? Will be running it bridged. I just want to be one and done if you know what I mean. I also have a Hawg Wired RS4004 amp from their Six Pack set up if that's any better than the RF.
