[QUOTE="bean, post: 53433, member: 541109"] There are those two issues with ground, length and voltage. It's my opinion that keeping the grounding the same thoughout the system is the most important. I think some of the senior members will agree. I've done hundreds of installs and how I do it is this............. Simply take a 14 or 16 AWG wire (same as you would use for the remote turn on) and twist this and the remote wire together. Run those back to the amp. Then plug the headunits ground wire into the amplifiers ground. You're now grounding everything to the same place.........hope that makes sense. Distibution blocks are great, but I see too many people use them when they don't really need to. [/QUOTE]
