For those of you who didnt know already G-Soup was in an accident today. He's at home now and he's doing better. I thought I'd just spread the news about our NELOC brother. You can read more information here and post your messages for him as well.

So basically if some body could clear up how I would hook up my two amps, a 4-ch and a bridged 2-ch, to the computer I would appreciate it.
thanks
