You just have a direct lead from the battery so the amp will drain the battery. That's what I beleive it is.

no i have the remote lead coming from the head unit there the power and the ground. Its always on, even with the car off. But i have two other amps running and they run correctly. On the new audiobahn it will turn on as long as it have power and ground it doesnt matter if the remote lead is attached and giving a signal or not. CHris
