I'm running 4 separate amps to 16 pioneer 10's and i was wondering since i plan on running a distrbution block to the 4 amps. my question is can i run a distrbution block from my grounds to a main ground or should i run 4 separate grounds?

Using a distro on the grounds would be fine...

I personally would run 4 seperate grounds, but some people would contradict that, some prefer distribution blocks, its up to you.

Just make sure you have good connections, and ground to bare metal.

You can go through the dist. block, but try and keep all your grounds as short as possible.

For that much power I would reccomend using a distro block (unfused) with dual 1/0 outputs ran directly to the battery.

Be shure its NOT a fused disto block. Only use a sold disto block for grounds

how would i relay the remote wirs? what i wanted 2 do is run toggle switches to the amps so i can listen 2 just a couple. for example 1 amp to 4 speakers so i can listen to 4 or 8 or 12 or 16.
