[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8862579, member: 689267"] This should not have any effect on the clipping. It should allow your amplifiers to dissipate current to ground more effectively/efficiently especially if the one you have now isn't adequate and is causing a return-to-ground bottleneck. For some reason, I thought that we were talking about a different amplifier. That amp wants a dual power input too. So, yes, dual power and dual grounds, at least from the 2nd battery station. I would run a single 2/0 +/- from primary to secondary unless you're running really long runs in which case you may want to consider dual 1/0 on both the power and ground in the battery-to-battery run. I think that you'd be fine with the dual 2/0 in the battery section of the run. Then from the battery, dual 1/0 to the amp and dual 1/0 from the battery to ground with a third 1/0 going to chassis ground. I'll attach a crude drawing here in second. [/QUOTE]
