[QUOTE="natem33, post: 5938, member: 541071"] your HU will not put out anymore watts to a certain channel if another channel is not hooked up. The HU amp is still supplying the power to the channel, there's just not anything there to receive it. With the left over stock wires...I would just leave them there and wrap electrical tape around them. Just make sure that they're not going to get pinched or touch any metal, and try to keep them off bottom of the doors (if they're in the doors) because moisture can build up in there and cause a short. By leaving the stock wires in place it makes it easier to rehook up the deck power if you sell the car or whatever. [/QUOTE]
