[QUOTE="Zach Hutkin, post: 7215872, member: 630337"] I am planning on buy to separate amps, a four channel and later on a mono/two channel bridged which I plan to put in my trunk. I really don't want to have to run the power, rca, and remote on cables twice. How would I have to go about wiring the amps to do this. Right now I am thinking that I will run my power cable from the battery to a distribution block in the trunk and then to the amps. As far as the rca signal cables go would it help to get one of the amps with a preamp output and daisy chain them, or just just disconnect one of the rca cables and hook it into the other amp. My head unit has to preamp outputs at 2.5v. One is front and the other is back/sub. I don't know how i can split the remote on cable to both amps. Also will I need a capacitor. I am looking at getting around a 500 rms 4 channel amp and a 300 rms mono amp. I am also considering getting just a 5 channel amp but I am on a tight budget and I haven't seen a good one for under $250 so I'd probably end up buying so low end gear. [/QUOTE]
