Newb questions

Hi all,

I have a few questions about hooking up my stereo and stuff.

1. I have a set of components for the front and possibly might get another set for the rears. Should I use 1 amp or 2 amps to power the components?

2. My friend gave me 2 distribution blocks that he no longer needs. 1 splitting into 2 and 1 splitting into 4. Should I use them or just run the power straight from the battery for the amps?

3. What type of wiring kit or wire do you recommend for this? Monster cable? , etc?

thanks all

Don't do components in the rear. 1 amp is fine, why would you need 2? They do make 4 channels ya kno?

Where were you GOING to run the power from? You should be running power straight from the battery, to a distro, to the two amps seperately, or dedicated lines if you want to have them seperate for any particular reason.

Wire is wire

If you haven't bought your wire yet, check out KnuKonceptz. They have some pretyy good stuff and decent prices.
