Sethorama Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Is it better to have separate grounds when running multiple amps or use via dist block? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nascarguy301 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 I prefer one dist. block. It helps to reduce your chances of having ground loops.

Sethorama Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 I prefer one dist. block. It helps to reduce your chances of having ground loops. Thats what i currently have.

Mikey Bates Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 It may help(preference) if there are two inputs one the dist block. ground them to seperate parts just to be sure...Some people think seperate pats mean the same part in different places. but try and ground one to what the seat bolt (example dont do that though haha) and one to the frame if you can (again just an example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey Bates Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Haha i personally don't care to much. but some people feel as if have the block grounded to to spots is better. if you picked one spot for both, and it was just a sucky ground well that sucks so for some people ifs just to make sure its a solid ground, not so much to make it any better lol. again. its totallll preference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
