Nah. Each amp only draws a few milliamps from that lead, all it
does is signal the amps to turn on.

Yeah youll be fine, no relays required. Just wire both leads to the remote lead on the head unit.

bass will go anywhere, which is why it does not need to be in the best location like other speakers. they install them upside down because it fit better that way, or it is out of the way more, or it is better protected...etc. it will not affect the sound in any way.

Thanks for the replies fellas, the advice was of much help. I got it all together, sounding great and have the peace of mind that I will not blow the turn on lead of my XCELON deck. Much love to the bumpin Daks out there....peace!
