[QUOTE="gator4thehaters, post: 29204, member: 541952"] Wiring hu's, subs, and amps is simple.(once u know how![IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG]) I prefer 8 ohm subs because you can bridge 2 subs down to 2 ohms and some amps are good enough to run at 2 ohms without shutting down. The higher the ohms, the more options you have to configure the subs. Wiring an amp consists of a power wire to an inline fuse to the battery, the ground wire to a grounded metal piece of the car, and the remote wire to the remote on the radio.

You just have to know which wires are power, ground, acc, the speakers +'s and -'s and the remote wire for the amp. Sometimes they have more wires but usually those are the basic wires that you hook up.
