I would run the amps with a 4awg power wire fused at 60amps from the battery to a distro block. From there run 8 or 10awg power wire to the amps fusing them with 30amps each. Aslo your cap would be hooked up to the distro block. You can probably run 8awg power wire from the battery but I would run 4awg just for personal preference.

As far as 2 subs, make sure the final resistance of each sub is at 2ohms to get the most out of your amp. Or if using 1 sub the resistance would be 4ohms.

That should be all you need, plus another RCA cable. When running two amps you're going to need to run the amp turn on lead to both amps. Just run one wire to one amp, then from that amp to the other amp. You'll also need two sets of RCA cables. The RCA cable from your head unit goes to the IN of one amp, the other goes from the OUT of that amp to the IN of the other amp. The rest is self explanatory. Run your ground to the distro and wire each ground to each amp. Do the same with the power wire.
