07 EGC installing a soundstream st4.1000 amp . my question is where do i ground to? Ive read so many post on installs and found one post that explained where, but cant find post! I prefer to do things once and done . Dont really want to have all the bad things( whirring, wining, etc...). Im good with everything else. Thx in advance

 

Ground at the battery.

What speakers are you using, you may find that amp is a bit underpowered.

 

Do you have the st4.1000 or the pn4.1000? World of difference in those 2 amps.

 

I am running the st 4.1000 class d amp.not worried about FM reception the stations around here play the same crap over and over. I presently have jl gto 638s. But i have polk mm651 NIB sitting in garage. According to amp manual "ground close to amp".my original plan was to go back to battery but i only skimmed manual prior to this point.after reading that it raised the question.

 

As SB said. World of difference in the two amps. I'd switch out to the SS PN4.1000D and run the polks in the rear pods. Night and day difference!

 

Yup. That's for a car!

 

Changing amp not an option. I do not have rear pods,only fairing speakers. Do i bridge amp ? And run polks? Further down the road looking at 6x9 lid spkrs. Will probably change amp out then or an additional amp. looked at pn4, and the difference is 10 watts rms vs the st4 . both are class D . is 10 w that much difference?thx again for all information

 

Just to make sure we are apples to apples we're talking this amp:

You can bridge that amp and run the Polks. No problem.

 

Gannicus , its the first one from crutchfield ( not where it was acquired).
