yeah tal, i was being sarcastic. im currently running a 4 gauge wire to the rear of my car, where a home-made distribution block connects it to 3 chassis ground points in the trunk and from there splits to the amps.

under the hood im using several grounds from the battery to key points like the ECU, 2 chassis locations, alternator, and starter.

before I had any research into anything electrical or audio, i took a stereo shops advise and ran chassis grounds on a factory wiring system. i had a humming noise through the subs and eventually blew two 500 watt amps. i did some reseach on direct current and ever since then i have the "more the merrier" philosophy on grounds....
