Carlos Tj Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Is it true that its not good or "safe" to ground your amplifiers in the same place you are grounding your extra batteries or capacitor? 2005 Dodge Magnum Kenwood DNX573S Double Din NVX Big 3 Kit NVX 0 Gauge Cable & speaker cable XS Power V3100 Battery Iraggi Alternator 320A 3.5" NVX Speakers 6.5" Incriminator Audio Components (just mids) 6x9" NVX Speaker MVPA4 Amplifier (2) 12" NVX VCW Subwoofers XPLD3K NVX Amplifier YouTube Channel @CarlosTj664 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacomaguy1 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 that's the opposite of what you want to do.....have your batts grounded good, then just use them as distros to ground everything off of Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Tj Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 and in the case of capacitors do the same? connect the amp ground to the capacitor as long as the capacitor has a good ground? 2005 Dodge Magnum Kenwood DNX573S Double Din NVX Big 3 Kit NVX 0 Gauge Cable & speaker cable XS Power V3100 Battery Iraggi Alternator 320A 3.5" NVX Speakers 6.5" Incriminator Audio Components (just mids) 6x9" NVX Speaker MVPA4 Amplifier (2) 12" NVX VCW Subwoofers XPLD3K NVX Amplifier YouTube Channel @CarlosTj664 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Tj Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 You shouldn't use a cap. i know but my friend has a cap & he wants me to install it for him... but i remembered once hearing online that you couldnt ground it in the same spot... something like that, thats why i want to know how to ground it.. and he said he might get a battery soon that he bought the cap meanwhile and yeah just wanted to know how the grounds worked on both... 2005 Dodge Magnum Kenwood DNX573S Double Din NVX Big 3 Kit NVX 0 Gauge Cable & speaker cable XS Power V3100 Battery Iraggi Alternator 320A 3.5" NVX Speakers 6.5" Incriminator Audio Components (just mids) 6x9" NVX Speaker MVPA4 Amplifier (2) 12" NVX VCW Subwoofers XPLD3K NVX Amplifier YouTube Channel @CarlosTj664 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michigancapri92 Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 your grounds are all going to go to the same place no matter where they are ... the ground is going to work its way back to the negative on the battery ... having them scattered throughout the car or all in one place on the car ... its still going to travel to the negative on the battery to complete the circuit Teamcapri.comThe TeamCapri 1992 Mercury Capri XR22012 FORD EDGE SQ BUILDOld build logMy FeedBack1992 Mercury capri XR2 Hyper LED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
