2 amps?

[Kryptonite]

how would you connect 2 amps to hit 2 subs? right now i have 1 kenwood 1,000 watt hittin 1 kenwood 12' sub. i just bought my other amp the other day(the exact same amp) and i already have my 2nd sub in my car.

You will need to get a splitter for the rca cables, and a fuse block so you can run dual amps. I would also recommend running at least 2 gauge wire to the block and at least 4 gauge to the amps. If it was me, I'd run 0/1 gauge to the block and at least 4 gauge to the amps. Then you will need to find a second good grounding spot and split your remote cable.

0/1 isn't necessary

I run 2 gauage to the distribution block and 8 gauge to the amps without a problem.

You may want to run 2 into 4 instead of 8 but even then I don't think it would be required.

Also check to see if the amp doesnt have an output on it. Then you wont need to buy a splitter just run an RCA cable from one amps output to the other amps input.

+1. hell my audiobahn has a output in the style of a phone jack to go to another amp and aside from power/ground is all that is needed.

id run 2ga to the block and 4ga to the amps. use seperate ground point for each amp, you cannot use the same ground point for both amps, or you will get bad things happening.

I run the same ground for both of my amps. No problem whatsoever

The two 8 guage ground wires go into a distribution block and then its 2 guage wire to the ground spot

okay i figured it out........i just ran my 4 gage wire to the disturbed block then the 4 gage to each amp.....ran their own grounds and ran the A/C cables form on amp to the other, and ran another A/C cable from the headunit to the amp. It sounds nice but i blew the stock tweeter on the driver side LOL..... does anyone know where to buy one cheap its the 460 sound system! thanks for advice!
