Re: [DML] Re: grounding equipment to battery?



>From many car audiophiles point of view, the best way of installing high 
power amplifiers and many of the audio equipment's, is to attach the supply 
and ground lines directly to the battery. This way you will minimize or 
reduce all "electrical noises" that the vehicle and its components can 
induce. Many car audio companies produces and supply battery terminals "add 
ons" accessories to help with these issues of corrosion and or stressing the 
terminal mechanically. These add ons terminals accessories are a necessity 
to reconnect the original vehicles wires while offering the ability to 
connect the new heavy gauge wires of the audio equipment in a safe and 
correct manner.

Don't wire for fire or learn by burn.
