New member Username: ElusiferPost Number: 4 Registered: Dec-05 | Ok ive got a 250 watt 2 channel amp. Im gonna hook up 2 6.5" speakers in one channel and then 2 6x8s in the other channel. Then ive got a 1000w 2 channel amp that im gonna push 2 10" speakers with. My question is: WHats the best way to hook up two amps in one vehicle? Can i hook them up in series using one power cable and one ground then just jump one to the other or will that burn down my vehicle? Thanks |

The only thing it's missing is a ground distribution block, which brandon mentioned. You can pick one up for about $5, or you can just ground each amp seperately. http://cgi.ebay.com/EFX-4-Gauge-Dual-Amp-Kit-w-block-NEW_W0QQitemZ5847073475QQca tegoryZ32808QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

My questions is do i need to use rca cables running from one amp to the other or do i need to use a y splitter from the head unit to the amps? Thank You? |
