I have a 1000wtt nitro amp that i got used and it didnt have a remote with it and i dont know how to hook it up. is the remote necessary and could you tell me how to hook it up? Thanks
No, a remote is not required when using an amplifier. I would actually suggest not using a remote anyway.
When installing your amplifier, there are just a few steps you will need to perform, but first, make sure you have everything to install it properly first. You will need a power cable that will be long enough to go from the battery to the location of the amplifier, a negative cable which should be roughly a foot in length, an rca & rem cable, an inline fuse in the approperiate size for your amplifier, and the tools to install it all.
Once you have all of this, I would first start by disconnecting your battery. This way you will not need to worry about damaging any components.
Next you will need to install the inline fuse within 12 inches of the battery. Once that is done, you can run the power cable to your amplifier.
Next, you can focus on finding a location to install your negative cable on bare metal. The best result you can get it to drill a hole through the chasis and bolt it down. If you do decide to do this, be sure you will not be drilling into any important components of your vehicle like your gas tank or brake lines.
Next, you will be installing your rca & rem cables. Make sure to run these cables down the opposite side of the vehicle that you installed your power cable on. Your rca cables will plug into the back of your deck, and your rem cable can be either spliced into your switched power cable on the back of your deck, or simple install it on your stereo fuse in your fuse box.
Once done, you can wire up your subwoofers, and reattatch your battery and if you did this right, you should be in buisness.
