Second amp wiring...

[Pascawali]

I am currently installing another amp to run my 220w component speakers.
I am just curious, how can I run the wiring off of the existing amp wiring?
i.e: is it possible to buy 1m segments of the battery cable and remote wire and split these off of the original wiring?
thanks in advance

Get a distribution block, plug power cable into that and than run power cable from distro block to each amp, run seperate grounds for each amp, and piggyback the REM wire for the second amp.

Yes you can buy metre lengths of power and ground cable, WOW, JB, Jaycar, and most car audio stores should have it,

Just hook it up the exact same way you did with the first amp.

That means buy a wiring kit. Your going to need additional RCA's anyways, and buy the time you buy a distrubution block, you've spent about as much as the kit would have cost anyway.

Aracmody thanks for that mate! I thought I had to do that but wasnt sure about the battery cable...honestly thought I could just piggyback that one also.
To HCVP...I already have RCA's and I am not prepared to run 2 4G battery cables all the way through my car...thats just ridiculous

Explain to me how 2 runs of 4 AWG are ridiculous? You had to ask because you didn't know the answer, you get given the answer, but it's ridiculous?

So you have some spare RCA leads laying around allready?

It all depends how much your drawing through the cable mate.. you can t into the original line but theres a chance you will get big voltage drop because your pulling too much current for the cable size.. you can only try it
