hi all,
im going to be installing a DX400 amp in my car soon, and im thinking of putting it in the trunk.
this would be a great place for it, IF i could control it from the driver's seat!
so, my question is; would it be possible to unsolder the switches from the amp's PC board, mount them in a small plastic or metal box, and run wires from the box to the PC board?
a length of approximately 15 feet.
im thinking some ferrite at each end of the multi-wire cable would help with any stray RF.
so, is there any big current running through these switches?
will long runs of wire mess with the amp's operation?
anything else im not thinking of?
if this works, i can put the remote box right on top of the radio and make it nice and neat.
thanks for any advice and or info anyone can offer,
