New guy here asking if I'm setting this up right

General

I’m pretty sure I’ve got all the right wires and fuses. Just wondering if hooking everything up will keep the speakers and sub from draining my battery when the car’s off.

Your speakers and subs shouldn’t draw battery power directly. If your amps shut off when the car’s off, then you’re likely good—no power drain. But if something’s faulty, it might still use a bit of power or not fully shut off.

So, the amps work with the radio through RCAs?

Yep, amps are usually controlled either by a signal from the radio/car or they use signal sensing to turn on/off automatically.

Do all amps work this way? Mine’s an XTC Bamba 2120, 5000W amp.

Pretty sure it does—would be strange if it didn’t fit one of those setups.
