Speaker Wires
#1
Ok I think I know the answer for this but I just want to be sure.

I have an old Thump 800watt 4 channel amp that I used to use in my old Tempo to power the speakers. I want to put this amp back into service in the focus to power the 4 door speakers.

When I installed my deck I bought the cheater plug that allows you to use the factory wire harness. What I was thinking of doing was running the speaker wires off of the amp, to the front of the car and tapping them into the wires off of the speaker connector for the speakers (I think its the grey plug).

Well what I am wondering is, is it safe to run the wires down the side of the car where I ran my RCA's? The RCA's I am running are the BassWorx RCA cable (not those cheap walmart A/V RCA's).

You've heard my car... I'm not getting any interference with the power and RCAs on the same side of the car.

Well your not really running any high demanding components in your car. Replace that Legacy with a better amp and watch the RCA's pickup some hardcore noise.

*shrugs* Just because you're running two Premier 10s in the GTA... you really blow my mind some days man.

Anyone who's heard that system would be hard-pressed to figure it was powered by a Legacy amp. It hits pretty hard for a single 10".

Or does the BSing start now... :rolleyes:
