| I want to use a 12 volt turn on but need a relay in there for 16volts to that amp. I tried 2 different ways your basic turn on,then the low input to high out put way and neither of them worked.
so can someone tell me how to wire a relay for my amps remote | |

| what amp needs a 16v turn on? I'd say 12v turn on is fine. A relay would help with turning on more than one amp. | |

| Does your head unit and amps share a ground? Will need to in order to work. Do you have your 16v grounded to the car | |

| NO BUT AN AMP RUNNING OFF OF 16V BATTS HAS BEEN SAID TO BE LOUDER WITH A 16V TURN ON
PERSONALLY I HAVE SEEN THIS WORK ONCE AND THAT WAS WITH THE IA20.1 | |

| wow.. i thought that the 12v rem input just ran to a solid state device that acted as a relay to turn the amp on. | |
