subs and amp

I'm not sure how much of a newbie you are but here's my 2 cents.

First, you need power. Connect it to your battery terminal, using 4 ga. wire. Run it through the fire wall...via drilling a hole or going through some grommet. Then pull up the trim on the floor and try to tuck it in there. Try to keep the wire from view at all times.

Next, you need to run RCA cables and a remote wire from the back of the head unit. Once again, preferably on the opposite side as the power, run the RCA and remote under the trim plastic pieces. Those are the only wires you need to run from the fron to the back. The rest is done back there.

Next, you need to get a good ground, preferably using the same 4ga. wire and close the the amp. Be sure its connected to a solid piece of metal. If there is any paint, scrap it off to get a better connection.

Then, match up the RCA, power, ground, remote and speaker wires in the apporpriate slots on your amp. This should be about it. The short the wires, the more efficient they run, so make your ground as close to the amp as possible and use the same ga. wire for the ground as you used for the power.

I hope this helps, post any more questions if you have them.

I got a Legacy LAMP4 1600 Watt 4 Gauge Car Amp Wiring Kit for the amp and subs and i wanted to know if this was right for the subs and amp i have. i also wanted to know what "LAMP4" and "4 gauge" means. I am really new to all this car audio stuff so speak to me in newb terms. thanks a whole bunch!
