Grounding an amp

Recommended Posts

Is there anything extra that needs to be done if you ground the amp straight to the negative battery post?

nope. it doesnt matter if its your front battery, or any secondary one. direct connecting the amp to the negative is best.

also, as the guy above me mentioned, any battery should be grounded to the frame to pick up any negative power going through. batteries wouldnt work unless they were grounded (creates a circuit)

Well the battery has a good ground, I was just lazy to take out the whole seat to sand down a section to ground the amp.

Plus, my buddy was in a real hurry so he didn't have time for that.

But thanks for the help.
