iceman1575 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 Going to be ordering some fuse blocks next week, trying to decide if I need a second unfused distro block for the grounds, or if I should just ground individual to the same point on the truck... There's going to be 3 amps for now, soon to be 5 (3 highs 2 subs). Options? There'll be at least 1, if not two, runs of 1/0 front/rear POTATO!
knowledge Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 witch ever one is fine but with the distro's it will make things easier/cleaner REFF'SMy linkEBAYhttp://feedback.ebay...ck&myworld=trueI love car audio so much because I will never be done. I can never win, and I will never get it finished or perfect. It always has me coming back for more, I can never get my fill of it, but I get what I need.
basshead8569 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 I have 2 amps and I have a block. But, I seen people that used 2 different points to ground it. To me either way will work. As long as it is grounded the right way with the block. Current system (still building) 2 kicker 12" dcvr in factory kicker ported box, Rockford Fosgate 1200.1 Amp, Kenwood ddx-470 ddin radio, Rockford Fosgate 0 Gauge wiring, Rockford Fosgate punch 6X8 2 way speakers.
c.director Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 I will use a d-block from now on, in a system a while ago I was able to eliminate some noise in the system by grounding them at one point.

iceman1575 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Report Posted May 5, 2012 That's what I thought, just didn't know how well it would work. My thing is, once I'm "finished" with my system, it's going to have a total of 5 amps (3 mid/high amps on one separate distro block, feeding into another block hooked to the two amplifiers) POTATO!
AMI CUSTOMS Posted May 6, 2012 Report Posted May 6, 2012 Ground to the same point, don't do a distro block unless you have too due to cable lengths or whatever, facts are every connection point create resistance the fewer connections the better and remember electricity takes path of least resistance so make as few connection points as possible.
