Hey guys, I had just recently purchased my 2012 2SS Camaro and it's loaded. Though, i'm having issues with installing my Subwoofer into my Amplifier. Here's what I have currently:

-Boston Acoustic Amplifier (Factory)
-Rockford Fosgate P300-12 (has amplifier built into the box)
-******** Harness
-Audio Pipe Ground Loop Isolator

I seem to be missing cables I believe because i clearly don't have enough cables to link into them all. I had this subwoofer in my old Scion and had it removed, but only took out the box. Would anyone be able to diagnose my issue? If anyone who is in the area that is capable of helping me or has experienced this issue before, please let me know. I will stay in contact.

Thanks,
Donnie

What are you using to get from the ******** harness to the box?

You should have some RCA cables from the harness to the amp...

Where's the power and ground for the amp?

The harness also gives you a remote turn on lead.

That's what I figured I was missing. I have the Audiopipe Groundloop insulator and I just picked up what the site recommended. I'll pick some up soon. Any suggestion on a cable brand?

I used street wires zero noise RCA cables and the amp installation kit with 4 gauge wire for power and ground.

Hey I just got my sub installed. I picked up some stinger cables and they are working just fine. All to do now is clean up the wiring and organize the trunk space. Appreciate the feedback, i'll be asking more questions in the future. Possibly going to fit a new head unit in there sometime soon.
