New eD setup need advice on wireing
Hello,
I just bought 2 NINe.2 amps, a set of eDi 6000s, and an 11Ov.2 sub.
I am a beginer with car audio though and am unsure of what all I need for wiring...
any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated...
cheers-

You will need minimum of 1 x 8ga power wire (red) to each. Or 1 x 4ga to a distro block then split to 2 x 8ga. Be sure to fuse the power lead, within 1 foot of the battery with the correct amperage fuse! Very important! Grounds (black) sized same or larger than power and as short as possible. Less than a foot is good.
Also 2 x stereo RCA (signal to amps) cables and speaker wire. For 6000's, 18ga OK if short runs, 16/14ga is better. I like minimum 12/10ga for the subs. Finally some blue 16/18ga for the remote turn on wire.
Heres eD recommended for 2 amps:

Check eBay if you are on a budget.
Some crimps or solder, heat shrink tubing or tape (uggh!) and zip ties to keep it neat. Buy enough wire, it sucks to end up too short. Less (none) splices the better!
Check out the wiring diagram @ elemental, depends if you bought a D2 or D4 Ov2:

Hopefully, you got a D2.
