i always rap the wire round the screw and screw it down if not got a connector.......the blue wire is only live when the sterio is switched on as apposed to the main live being on the whole time in prinsable it switches the amp on and off :thumbs:

if the wire is too thick split it in to 2 at the amp end to make a fork
