Car Stereos: ? about ground cable, ground cable, distribution block


Question
Yes i have another question. What is the max length i should have my ground cable? And what is the max length i should have between my amp and my distribution block?

Answer
Hi Ryan,

The length of the power wire going from the distribution block to the amps isn't very important as long as they stay away from anything that will generate EMI and get good clean connections.

The ground wire should be kept to < 18" or so if possible.  Make sure it's grounded out at an unpainted, well cleaned part of the car's chassis.
