I am in need of assistance

[ssf helljumper]

Okay, so I am just a teenager who is soon to buy a lot of audio equipment however I am not going to pay $75 for every amp I need Installed which I can do myself but my question is, is if I supply the details for what i am going to buy is there anyone who can tell me how to wire my set up because im looking at having 3 amps and a capacitor but i don't know how to hook up multiple amps because 2 are identical and i am dedicating to sub-woofers and the other is a four channel that i am going to wire like an 8 channel so i can hook up all my mids and highs but i have no clue how to wire the capacitor or more then 1 amp. any help is much appreciated!!!!

Ditch the cap. Its pointless unless you already have little to no voltage drop.

Read: BCAE1.com

When using very large capacitors (1/2 farad or more) in your car, the capacitor partially discharges into the amplifier's power supply when the voltage from the alternator or battery starts to fall. Keep in mind that the discharge is only for a fraction of a second. The capacitor can not act like a battery. It only serves to fill in what would otherwise be very small dips in the supply voltage.

First off, You're better off getting a second battery instead of a cap. Capacitors will just be an extra drain on your charging system.

just do the big three and get a second battery

In answer to your question, someone here will be able to help you with your wiring. I personally have two sub amps and a 4channel amp that is powering 6 speakers, 4 for the rear channel and 2 for the front.

lots of people here can help you as long as you listen to it. most kids on here dont actually take the advice given so dont be like that lol.

list everything you are looking at getting. brands and models. then we can tell you how to wire it or even warn you if you are about to get something that wont work.

what brand is this?

so the 2way component sets will have a passive crossover so you arnt setting up a 4channel amp like an 8channel. one set of wires will go from each channel to the crossover. from the crossover to the mids and tweeters.

for 3 amps you will want a relay. the relay is activated by the HU remote turn on. the relay has a power and ground coming from the battery then one power wire that you will split to each amp. this is just to turn the amps on and off.

for actual power and ground on the amps you either get a second battery in the trunk and run wires from that to each amp or you get a distribution block.

several brands you have are not great ones. if you would like to list the types of items you want to buy and your budget we can help with that part.

well as i said i am a teen however i am planing on saving up and after around 2 months i should have about 2 grand however this is flexible this will be going in a 2000 honda accord ex sedan and i have the 6 1/2" Rockford Fosgate component system and the PSW615's i am up for any suggestions on what to do to get the loudest and clearest overall sound audio i possibly can so if you can suggest better amps speakers batteries etc that would be great and i was also curious if i should upgrade my alternator from the stock 105 amp to a 180 which from what i see is gonna cost $220 and what kind of batteries should i get. i mean should i change the stock original battery to a kinetic or what???? im just really in need of some guidance and i am easily available by text if you would be willing to tell me what you believe i should do that way num is 254-458-3462 i just need to get guidance from some one who knows what there talking about so that i can get the best system for my budget
