Your power wire coming from the battery is going to your amplifier in the rear. If this power wire is not able to handle the current draw of two amplifiers, you have to go to the nex larger size.
Typically, in a two amp system, you run a 4 awg(guage) power wire from the battery to the rear. It then splits via a fused distribution block into two 8awg cables, then into each amp. The same happens in reverse for the ground cable. It has to go from two 8awg to one 4awg via a distro block and then to the chassis for ground.
Each amp has to have the proper cabling to ensure it gets the amount of power it requires. If it doesn't, it could actually fry the cable and has the potential to start a fire.
If you have 8awg cable goin to the amp, you are going to need the following to add another amp in for the satellite speakers:
4awg power and ground cable
4awg inline fuse holder with proper amperage fuse
4 channel RCA patch cords or (2) 2 channel ones
split the remote turn on wire to go to both
speaker cabling to go to the speakers or behind the dash into the wiring harness
1 fused and 1 non fused distribution block
4 channel amp
Knukonceptz has all of this for extremely cheap. I can spec it for you if you like.

OK, the link I posted a few hours ago has the best price I could find on the amp at $119.95. Below you will find the list of items needed with the exception of the speaker wire I mentioned which I got at Tweeter Inc for $19.95 and could not find on line for sale anywhere. So, here you go:

HAH, i was thinking a lot more than that!! Definatly not something that can happen for april 17th. But it is something that will happen sometime there after. I may question you about this again later down the line.
Thanks again!
