[QUOTE="req, post: 726511, member: 555713"] to awnser the question quite bluntly, the chassis actually becomes the 'wire' that connects the amplifier's 'grounding location' to the batteries 'grounding location' - this is why we have really fat wires here. all wire is is metal strands. all a chassis is a metal frame. and since all elements that are metal conduct electricity, the chassis is a perfect way to save yourself some wire - because every single electronic component is grounded so that two wires do not need to be ran from where that electronic this is, all the way to the fuse box, then the battery [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] if you wanted to, you could run it directly to the - post. and sometimes, if the distance is shorter- and\or its eaiser, thats a graet way to do it - because you can calculate your resistance. but in most everyones installation, its just no practical to run two 1\0 guage wires from your engine to your trunk, if you get my drift [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] hopefully i helped a little [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] and that website is awesome.
