you don't need another kit. Your going to have to buy a distro block and use that to get power to both amps. You also going to have to buy some extra speaker wire as well.

will i have to run another 12v power line to my battery?

 

[DragonCub 10+ year member]

no, just one line from the battery to the distro block and then from the distro block run power to each amp. Also connect the pre-outs from one amp to the input of the second amp.

what about the remote line that goes to the HU how do you do that?

just splice another wire for the old one and then connect that one to the second amp.

Your wire to the battery better be big enough to use a distro. block on.....
