Hey Guys!

I just got an alpine mrv-100m amp, and a type R sub in a box.

I bought a used car, and they guy said all the wires to hook up are there, so I didn't bother getting it installed.. well!

I have the RCA wires from the deck to the amp(is that where it's from?) And I know how to hook up the amp to the subs,

Where I'm confused is at, how do I get the amp power?

I see 3 connectors at the back for power, it says

Battery, Remote, Ground...

What do I hook up here? do I need to hook these up!?

Thanks guys!

-Izzy

 
The Battery wire is what gives the amp power.. hook that up to the (+) on the amp. Ground goes to the (-) and remote tells the amp when to turn on.. it just goes to the remote terminal on the amp. It might just say Rem or something like that

The 750 will give you better control at higher volumes as you won't be reaching clipping as soon..

Yes, the power wires' colors don't match from the dash to the new harness. However, I tested them and the wire I'm treating as the constant 12v is...
