Correct.

Although, not recommended for a high end system.

If you want a high end system, you need a headunit with 2 x RCA out, and Subwoofer out. 3 amps, one for the front split speakers, one for the rear speakers, and a mono block for the sub. Or you can run one 4 channel for fronts and back.

Splitting RCA's is ok to an extent. On a small system, it'll work fine.

Only thing about splitting is u lose fader control from the H/U. You will have to do it utilising your gains on your amps.
