I have 2 amps, a distribution block for a double amp system and I also have a capasitor. Now just run 1 wire out of the block to the capasitor and then 2 off the capasitor one to each amp? The other side of the block wouldn't be needed?? The capasitor is big enough for both amps. Is this the way to go, or is there a better way.

Keep on a Rockin!!

If you’re running one wire to the cap why do you need the distro block? But as far as running the 2 amps off the cap there is nothing wrong with that. Just be sure to keep the cable’s going from the cap to the amp under 18 inches. From your set up above you are running things correctly although I don’t understand your distro block. I would put the distro after the cap and then go to your 2 amps just keep it all under 18 inches

why not run the cap to the block, then off the block to the amps?

----- cap ---- block ====== amps
