[QUOTE="FML, post: 8373369, member: 630747"] What kind of amps are you running? If your 4 channel is lets say a 300 RMS amp, being 75 watts x 4 channels then yes, essentially it won't matter which channels you route your speaker wires to. In the event the amp has a staggered power output (meaning 2 channels for example may do 100 watts each, and the other 2 50 watts) you'd generally send your mid range speakers to the first two, higher wattage channels. Then the tweets to the lower powered 3rd and 4 channels. Knowing what kind of speakers are in the vehicle would help a lot too though, that way you know what their power handling capabilities are. You don't want to blast a little 40 watt low end tweeter with 200 watts. Get what im getting at? Its all about matching the speaker to the amp. Should be pretty straight forward. And the remote turn on wire can be whatever color, doesn't matter, but if running 2 amps, you'll want to add in another split in the main wire to branch it off for both amps. But if you plan on using remote voltage for anything more than 2 devices in the future, be it some volt meter displays, led's, etc you'll want to use a relay like i mentioned before. [/QUOTE]
