This might be a dumb question but how do you hook more then one amp bass boast switches together so you would only have 1 instead of like 4?

something like this, but with 2 or 4, and make sure it has input instead of output on the back side.

i got mine with 2, and i got it from good old walmart

Rockford has a master/slave feature...you put the main rca cable into an amp, the master, and you put outputs to however many slave amps you want. All of the amps must be exactly the same. Just hook up the remote bass to the master amp. This also makes setting the gains much easier.

theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer

I tried a rj 45 aka a ethernet cable or networking cable. They dont work, just got a weird buzz comming out the amp.

Master/slave the amps.
First amp with the rca's comming from the deck is your master, then use input/outputs for the rest of the sub amps.
The gain on the master amp will control all your gains on your other amps, as well as crossover freq, remote bass. You can use the gains on the slave amps for the fine tuning.
