[QUOTE="Chevyaudio, post: 2388045, member: 559770"] This thread is full of a bunch of hard to decipher info... Thread starter... START OVER -Run a single 4ga. Power wire to a distrobution block, from there run 2 8 gauge wires to each amp. -Run a single 4ga. Ground wire to the Frame of your car sanded to bare metal (Floor if you have a uni-body car) and run it to a ground distrobution block, from there run 2 8gauge wires to each amp. -Im pretty sure that those amps arent strappable...so you are going to have to gain match the amps to make sure that they are putting out the exact same ammount of power. Take a DMM and set it to AC Voltage and play a 45hz test tone on REPEAT on your CD player. And take your DMM set on AC voltage and touch the probes to the speaker terminals on amp #1...set the gain via the steps in the gain setting tutorial, and the repeat these steps for amp #2...MAKE SURE THE VOLTAGE YOU LEAVE THE GAIN ON IS THE SAME FOR EACH AMP. -Now run your speaker leads to each repsective sub...not sure of the specs on this amp but it either does its power at 4ohms bridged (if its a 2 channel) or 2ohms (if its a mono amp). Thats about it, other than running little things like a remote lead, and RCAs...and as far as RCAs go...you CAN Daisy chain those if the amps have a line-out RCA connection on the amp. [/QUOTE]
