[QUOTE="req, post: 775700, member: 555713"] ok. heres the deal. the BATTERY WIRE will be supplying anywhere from 12v to 14+change. average power though this wire (batt wire) is 13.5~14.5 - this has NOTHING to do with the CD player. the CD player accepts 12v, it has a regulated pwersupply, so if it gets 14.4v- it will cut it down to 12v. both the CD player AND the amp are run from the CAR BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. they have nothing to do with each other EXCEPT that the CD player has a thin blue wire that goes to the amp (by coincidence its 12v) that ONLY tells it when to be on and when to be off. this has nothing to do with the wattage or anything of the sort. the other cables that go from the cd player to the amp are the AUDIO CABLES, and again- has nothing to do with the wattage (cept matchin the gain wich is a whole different story all together) the manual will tell you what the deal is. but you have to read it with some common sense, and a bit of knowledge. so dont worry about it.
