amp switch

[Stuartturner]

hello putting a stereo in my girlfriends car but she wants to be able to switch the amps on and off because she often listens to the radio without the engine running is this possible and how would i do it, Any help appreciated.

Thanks

i wouldnt worry about a cut off switch fella, unless she listens to the radio @ full volume for hrs on end then battery drain is going to be minimal. I offen listen to CD with both my amps running & sub with the engine not running. More hassle then its worth.

Piece of piss, just put a switch on the remote wire!

If the fronts are being amped up as well and u want to switch the amp off ull get no sound

if its just a sub thats amped or 6x9s , u can put a switch on the remote wire

neil

with ref to two amp question earlier on all you do is run one remote wire from back of stereo to the boot where your amps arer. connect to first amp then run another wire from remote connection of first amp to remote connection of second amp. that way you only have one wire running the length of the car
