Thank you for that info. For the moment I believe it'll stay the way it's set up as I'm anxious to have it all back together by this weekend. When i get around to building a platform/moving the batteries forward and off the ground for storage purposes I'll look at re-wiring as it'll be needed at that time anyways. Hopefully this won't cause any other issues as the system already includes a second battery and switching relay. As for the wiring, there is direct power feed from cap to soundstream amp that is less than 1.5' in length. I believe the longest run of any of the power or ground wires in this setup is about 18-20". The grounding concern stemmed from mixed diagrams I've come across. Some show the amp grounded back to the cap then cap grounded to battery, some show distribution blocks. The above has each amp and cap grounded back to distribution block then block back to battery. That should be the last question. Thank you again for your help and when I look at stepping up to play with the big boys I'll make sure to give Earmark a call.
