    a cap with door speaker amp and 2 subs and an amp to power them i forgot to write down how the cap wires and stuff are all hooked up when i took it out of the old car. i know how to wire the subs+ sub amp without the cap but not with the extra amp and cap

    the cap acts like a battery so u can run you amp leads directly to it.....if you want you can even put you door speaker amp leads directly onto the matching terminals on the sub amp...doesnt matter, as long as positive and negative match up, and the system is grounded. Havn't done stereos for a year or two now but I think thats how I have mine wired

    awsome thanks, thats kinda what i had in my head , i think i can do the setup myself, just running the wires threw the car i might have a problem with , i was thinking of replacing the power wire, duck taping the old wire to the new wire and trying to pull it threw the old path to the back of the vehicle.

    i only have to run the powerwire threw a fuse by the battery right not the negative wire.?

    and can i run the rca's from the deck to the input of the sub amp than output on that to the imput (rca-rca) to the speaker amp?




    i also now do not know where to mount the sub amp, the amp and speaker amp both will mount nice on the 2 sides of the box or on the back but the other amps too big and wont fit anywhere cause of the speaker terminals.? any sugestions i dont really want to leave it on the floor

    yes there should be a fuse on the power wire by your battery....size of fuse depends on current being drawn by amplifiers

    yes the rca's will run from your deck to your sub amp, but most decks also have front/rear speaker out rca jacks that you should use for connecting a door speaker amp.....if not you could just connect them to the outputs on your sub amp like you said

    amps mounted to the back of seats works well.....without knowing the type of car it's hard to tell
