quick amp wiring question
Just wondering what the best way to hook a 2nd amp to the same remote lead would be. I have a nice kenwood HU, so if's too risky to have 2 amps running off the same lead, I'll get a relay. But if its safe, should I solder the 2nd lead to the original wire near the HU or near the amp?

You should be fine tapping a second turn on lead without having to use a relay. I would tap towards the turn on lead of the original amp installed. I don't feel it is necessary to solder though.

thanks for the reply
yea its probably not necessary to solder, but I don't mind doing it. I've always soldered HU connections, so I'm just used to it I guess:dunno:

be sure not to run *too much stuff off of that line. if you have to run a few big amps, use a relay. however i havent had trouble using that one lead to turn on 2 amps and a digital thingy for my cap.
