Can I hook up 2 separate power amps to PMP3000? I need 2 sperate ones. One for a Subwoofer, and One for my main speakers.
Here's a description for Subwoofer:
The Output will be from mixer. It will go out from “Main 2” located on top of mixing board. It will be a 1/4 to XLR which connects to the Crossover. The crossover then goes to power amp, which is XLR to 1/4 . Then from the power amp it will go to the subwoofer. Which is a Speakon to Speakon.
Here's Description for Main Speakers:
Goes from “Main 1” on the mixing oard, to the EP4000. Which is a 1/4 to 1/4. Then the Peavey’s conncet to the EP4000 which is Speakon to 1/4.

Better way... Connect the main speakers via the Speakons and then put a Power Subwoofer to one of the Monitor connections IF you are not using both stage monitors. If you need to kill the lows to the mains, use the EQ in the PMP-3000.
Use the EQ that is USUALLY on the subwoofer to kill the highs to the sub.
Lot less cables and hardware.
REMEMBER for equipment safety, power ALL interconnected equipment from the same source be it a receptacle or power distribution system.
Powering parts of a system from receptacles strewn around a room is asking for trouble of ground loops and ground faults.
