ok guys i got an amp wiring kit and i have a kenwood KAC-7201 amp. beside the 12V and the ground theres an insert that says "P.Con" and i think thats where i connect my remote turn on wire directly from the deck. if thats wrong plz inform me. now, wat does this wire do?

thx guys

oh and my sub says it takes for sensitivity 2.83V @ 1M. so wat should i set my amp at in sensitivity in Volts...2.83?

yes the "p.con" is the remote input. The sensitivity rating is a measurement of the sub's output in dB's at 2.83 volts and at a distance of 1 meter. This rating or measurement has nothing to do with setting your amp. You need to set your amp's gain control to match your head unit's preamp output. Easiest way to set this by ear is: choose a well recorded cd with loud bass, turn your amp's gain all the way down, turn your deck's volume to about 90% of maximum....now turn your amp's gain up until it starts to distort...back it off about an 1/8 to 1/4 turn and you're good. There are much more accurate ways to set the gain, but this works very well in most cases.

when you turn the deck on, a 12 v signal is sent from the deck to the amp via the remote wire.

whats the best kind of wire to use as a remote wire?

alright great thx

whatever you have. Thin 18-22 awg is fine. It's a very low amperage(current) signal.
