[QUOTE="kustomciv, post: 7354434, member: 632969"] you need to figure out what size power wire you have running to your amp now, that would help a lot. I just bought all this stuff for the first time (first time doing two amps) I bought this distribution block [URL="http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KNF-12"]2 Way Distribution System[/URL] you will need to figure out what size fuses are on each amp, for instance my subwoofer amp has 2x 30 amp fuses (aka 60 total) and then my speaker amp has 1x 20 amp fuse. So I ordered the distribution block with a 30 & and a 60 (since they don't have a 20) you don't need a block for the ground, you can just ground them by themselves. keep in mind you will need to upgrade the inline fuse that is on the power wire (by your battery) if it is not a large enough fuse to contain both amplifiers fuse sizes In other words, I had a 60amp fuse on my original wire but when I upgraded to two amplifiers (60amp & 20 amp) I had to upgrade the inline fuse to a 80amp [/QUOTE]
