Default About To Run System For First Time, do I have everything right?

Have my system pretty much done and have gone over everything twice. BUT I really dont know about inverting my subs and how they are supposed to be wired. Heres a pic of exactly how I have it installed:



Now I forgot about the rcaa's in the pic but they are there.
Now the way I did the remote wire is cool right? By splicing into the one that goes directly into the headunit?

I wired the amps up to what I was hoping was 20hm. The subs are Audiobahn AW1206T's 12's.

I wanna start this system out tomorrow but wanna make sure I have not royally missed something and will blow right away.

I guess you can see everything I can think of in the pic. Cant think of anything else. Power and ground is 4gauge. In a huge (forgot specs) ported dual chamber box

Ill answer any questions you guys have.

I would recommend running power like you did with the remote, you know, splitting it up when you got to the amps not running 2 separate cables, but I guess if you've done it already...Everything else looks good.

And if the sub on the left is inverted too, you are gonna wanna swith the polarity of that 1 too, unless you just didnt draw it properly.

oh chit. I made the picture wrong. Both subs are going from + 2 + and - 2 -

should I switch them around on the amps? Does it matter?

I never really thought about it.

The way you have your original pic - your set-up will be fine.

If the subs are inverted, and you have a regular sealed (or I guess ported box) then the polarity should be switched.

What kind of headunit do you have? Does it have a sub preout? If so check and see if you can change the phase on the sub output.
