Default wiring 2 12s to 2 amps

Whats up guys, This info isnt for a mustang, because i wrecked mine. haha, but I don't know where else to go to get anydecent advice. I'm going to buy 2 HAXO LXO 12 subs (http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_...roducts_id=710)from ED, and i'm thinking about pairing that up with 2 nine.1 amps. (http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_...products_id=44) I think i'm going to get a jensen headunit similar to this one.. http://www.caraudiodeals.com/jensen-...od-p-1128.html

I know the head unit isn't the best equipment out there, but I think it'll work ok.

Basically, I'm confused on what the best way to wire all of this together is. If you guys can give me a little insight that'd be great.

Thanks,

Will

You are going to need at least a 1/0 guage wiring kit. Right next to the amps you should use a d-block to split it into 2 4 guage wires and then to the amps.

The amp should have an ouput for the RCA's.

You can run a jumper from one amp's remote to the other.

It is just like installing one amp but you split the wires.

also don't forget to upgrade your alternator and power wires.

Your signal is only as good as its source so going all out on subs and amps may only expose problems or weak points of the jensen.

thanks guys, i appreciate it.

I might have to re-think my head unit, I want a nice sound, so I might want to go with a nicer unit.
