ok wut do i do with the ground wire? just disconnect it ffrom the battery?  and the rca'z , so that means theres a Left and a Right going to each amp?  i'm going to need to get a Y connecter so there would be a total of 4 ends? for i.e. 2 R, and 2 L . ?

i'm still lost lol but the picture helps alot

you dont have to disconnect the ground wire from the battery......just the possitive

RCAs yes I dont what speakers these were for but if they were for your subs....See if you have a non-fading rca out put......

as far as the y-connecter you will need two of them

OH yeah if i was to buy a distribution block , which brand, type and etc.... would be good to use i'm going to be buying it off of ebay. so that would help as well. also with the other things i might need.

also the wires that are connected to my amp are kinda whack. i mean like all the person that connected. just strip the wire, twisted, and stuck it in and turned the screw, could i buy some kind of clean metal sh*t that i can like make it better?

lolz i'm such a newb huh? lolz thanx for ur helps though

well there are many brands, all you need to know though is what size wire goes in and what size wire comes out.........1 4 guage in and 4 8 gauge out for example.... what do you mean the wire that are connected to your amp are whack?.........if you were talking about people you seen install a amp previously on other amps........yes there are terminals you can purchase again make sure they are proper size.......more than likely 24kt. gold plated....

no you dont need a block for your grounds......yes ground them to your chassis.... make sure that it is a good ground point and I like to use star washers due to the fact that they dig into the metal as to flat washer will not....and you can ground both amps to the same ground point also......

good Luck again

Stinger makes excellent power and rca cables for car audio. I would look at buying their SWK4D wiring kit. It includes one length each of 4 gauge power and ground cable, one 4 gauge in and 8 gauge out distrubution block, a length each of 8 gauge power and ground cable, and various connectors to connect it all and make it look clean. I would buy a crossover from Audiocontrol and get a good four channel amp. If you bought the crossover you would be able to fade between the front and rear sets of speakers and have a level control for your subwoofer on the crossover also. Some of them have a built in subsonic filter which could come in handy. Take a look at Audiocontrol's 3XS.There are alot of amps but if you are looking at buying MB Quart speakers then go with a good one. JL, Rockford Fosgate, Alpine, etc.
