[QUOTE="NvMe1991, post: 8085441, member: 654278"] i had this set up in my buick, 2 amps(rockford t3002, kenwood KAC-9105D). one day im driving and the left side front component started coming in and out. then a bit later it just stop working all together. couple days later the right one does the same. i take the amp out and hook it up to my bench. the left channel was completely fried. the right channels was close to it. i hooked it back up in the buick for further troubleshooting. the amp became instantly hot. i imediatly unhooked it. i hooked another rockford amp(p5002) up and it too became instantly hot. this is why im posting this in wiring and electrical. ok so wiring is as follows, 4 gauge rockford wire, 150 amp circut breaker, wire continued to the back, stinger distrubution block, 2 4 gauge inputs, 4 8 gauge outputs, i have power on one side, and ground on the other. for those who i just lost let me explain. the power wire is using one 4 gauge input an then 2 outputs to each amp. then grounded both to the other 2 outputs of the distribution block and then grounded from the 4 gauge input. my question is, is this why my amp fried and got hot ect.? should i just go out and buy a seperate distribution block for grounding? thanks in advance.
