Use the two channels out from your radio to power the high level inputs on both amps.

What speakers do you plan on using with the pbr300x4?

The pbr300x4 amp is only good for 4 ohm speakers. He can't use the MM series speakers with it.

The rear outputs from the radio are active, you just need to connect them and flash the radio for fade control if you want fade.
No flash needed for the rear speaker out.
