Uhh no, you wont need a relay, just splice the wires together. 1 into 3, and connect.

Use a relay...

Depends on the amount of current being drawn.

I wouldn't go over 400mA or so on most head unit turn on circuits...

You can splice, or you can daisy chain them together. (//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif this is the ONLY wire you would even want to try that with).

If you choose to not use a relay, simply run the remote to one amp, then from that amp to the next, and so on. 3 amps is probably pushing the limit though.
