[QUOTE="req, post: 896858, member: 555713"] dude. that sounds TOTALLY wrong. POWER WIRE - if he has TWO amps and ONE cap - this is how the power wire goes. 4 guage wire from battery -> fuse in the engine withing 18" of the battery -> through car -> directly onto capicator + terminal -> FUSED distro block -> step down to 8awg wire for each amp -> to amp "BATT\+" terminals ground for system above; amplifier GND\- terminal -> capicator - terminal (each ground does NOT need to go through a distro block, use the capicator terminals for this) -> frame\chassis\metal (clean, tight and bare metal, NO PAINT) of the car (from the terminal on the cap, to the ground, use 4awg, NOT 8awg) all wires must be tight enough wheras if you try to pull them loose from their connection, they should stay firm. all bare wire and\or connectors should be wrapped in eaither electrical tape, or some kind of non-conductive barrier. it SOUNDS like they had a distro block before the amp\capicator... and a wire from the distro went to the capicator, and the other wire went to the amp. this is RETARDED and all it does is drain your battery more.
