How did you split the remote wire for a multi-amp and/or other component install?

I wired my main power from the battery to a relay along with the remote from the head unit. When the head unit comes on it kicks the relay in and powers everthing up. I have wires split from the relay to each component. I want to make a cleaner looking install though. I would like to use a dist block but I want to see what other have done also.

Thanks, Russell

I just ran 3 wires from the relay to all my amps.  Made them as short as possible and tucked them away from sight.

Using a distrubution block is fine.  I like to use standard barrier strips on the relay output since they are available in a wide variety of positions and styles.
