Whatever is most convenient for you, to tell the truth.

Both my amps, my remote turn-on relay, and three neon lightbars all ground to a distro that is fed by a cable spot-welded to my spare tire mount and it works fine for me.

Separate grounds for each can easily work as well. Just depends on what works easiest for you, I reckon //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It hasn't thus far and I've been using the same two amps for quite some time so I would assume if it hasn't yet that it isn't going to. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I have 3 amps with shared power, ground, and remote. No issues...Been that way for a few years.

since we are on the subject,

is it ok to ground a 2ndbattery in the same spot with 2 amps?
