Where to hook up your amp's power wire?

Question

i have a 2001 dodge stratus my battery is located in my right left wheel well but i have a positive terminal under my hood that says jump start. is it ok to hook it there?

Answer 1

you MUST hook it up at the battery, with an in-line fuse no further than one foot from the battery to protect your sounds and the wire itself

Answer 2

I would not recommend doing that.  

If you were to connect the wire to that point you run the risk of having too much current go through the wire that goes from your battery to that point.  This wire is going to be just large enough to handle regular current demands so putting another source on that wire will be too much, most likey.  The wire could possibly melt and start a fire due to this.  

Just connect it to the battery for the best, safest result.

Good Luck!!!
