I've wired up several systems and they've worked great. I doubt I'll have a problem doing this but I don't want to do something wrong and screw up my equipment. 

I have two 15" memphis subs. I could be wrong but I think they are rated at 250 rms each. I'm not sure and I don't know the model number right now. I thought they were rated really low though and weren't in production long. They sound good but I plan on switching to Audiobahn 12's soon.

Then I have a digital audio 1200 amp DA1300a I think.

Then I have a little memphis amp for my digital audio compent system. 6" woofers, 4" mids, and 2 1/2" tweeters that are going in the front. I also have 6 1/2" speakers in the back pillars. There is nothing in the back dash.

Then I have a mempis crossover and a power acoustic equalizer.

I have 4 guage power run to the back to a power block and I have a ground black.

I plan on running power and ground wires to each of them seperately. Then just have one remote wire too all of them. Then I hook the head unit to the equalizer. Then run RCA's from that to the crossover. From the crossover to the two amps seperatley. I thinks that's going to be right but I just wanted to be sure.

If you have any setting advice I would appreciate and if I'm wrong on anything let me know. I want this to sound good so any advice, tips, tricks, etc. would be appreciated too. Thanks

How many watts does that amp for the subs put out?  sounds like you got the install pretty much under control...

It's a 1200 watt amp. I have the subs hooked up right now and they sound pretty good but I'm procrastinating on the rest of it.
