[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8850758, member: 674149"] The battery negative is not ground, and your amp is not grounded because you connect to the battery. Your amps ground is going through the battery negative, and is not grounded until chassis. Never said the battery was an obstacle. I'll say it again, it's the same ground, it's not the same path to ground. You are adding your amps ground to your batteries ground, and creating added resistance you shouldn't, with no benefit. If you want to have a discussion about it, then don't just post a link with a long page and a bunch of videos. Use some words, list a video, quote what you are referring to. I'm not going to go hunting through that so that I can have a conversation with myself. One is a forum with at least one person giving bad information. The other one I skimmed through and, none of the highlighted are what you think they are. Neither have anything to do with JL or Arc audio. Here YOU go, read this: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bing.com/search?pglt=41&q=battery+ground&cvid=f665a729f721423ca26019bd1a79609e&aqs=edge..69i57j0l7j69i60.2687j0j1&FORM=ANAB01&PC=U531[/URL] [/QUOTE]
