I had the same question about 2 amps so I just winged it and it worked fine.

I had a REM wire running from the HU. And I took the 2 REM wires from the terminal of the 2 AMPS and twisted all 3 together and it worked fine.

The remote input current for amplifiers varies with the amplifier and the model. Some draw minimal current. Others draw a little more. The upper limit of a properly functioning amplifier is approximately 50ma (0.05 amps). If you're using/controlling more than 2 amplifiers, it is (in my opinion) much better to use a relay to control the amplifiers. Actually I really prefer having a relay in the remote circuit (no matter how many amplifiers I'm using) because it protects the head unit's remote output circuit in case of a short circuit.

Thanks for all the replies!

To answer questions - I'm 34, so no, don't have a daughter over 18 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The pic is a year old - landscaping is done, so I'll have to update my pic.

@noob with an RS - haha.... crap.... we have a stalker. Just ignore our Rottweiler and the fact that my wife is a competition-level pistol shooter (she has a Glock in the bedroom closet) //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
