i have the mach 460 in my car and i called my local car audio place and they said it would cost me $55 to only run my wires becasue they had to hook up my remote wire like before the amps or somthing? i was wondering if there is a special way i have to run this or if they are just feeding me some bull**** because frankly i dont tihnk it matters where the remote is hooked up as long as it is gettin a little bit of current through i! but i need your help please respond thanks

 

well what do you mean by remote wite? the remote turn on wire or like a bass volume controller? what do you mean, more info

 

Remote wire probably needs to be run to the front of the car to be switched. I am not sure if the stock amplifiers have internal switches in them. Either way, it should not matter. They still have to run a few other cables to the front reguardless.

 

the remote wire tells the amp when to turn on and when to turn off, you can run an external switch if you would rather switch it on and off manually.

 

What's your point? That is a bad idea if you are saying completely bypass the head units switching mechanism.

 

they were tryin to feed me some s*** sayin that if i dont hook it up right all my amps on my door speakers will cut off and not work and i told them that how is that possible when the remote wire just tell it to turn on and off and the rca only get a signal from the speakers on when to make the speakers hit and they didnt have nothing to say! i mean its not like im cutting into anything im just linking wires together! i think they were just tryin to make money, cuz i dont think they knew that i hook up systems for my buddies all the time! o well they lost all of my respect!
