    Don't most people tap straight to the battery with a dedicated cable with it's own fuse holder?

    If adding an amp, then you would connect the power to the battery.

    Add a circuit wouldn’t last long nor whatever fuse you add it too. Sub draws way too much current to do that safely.

    Wiring directly to the battery is always best for an amp or a powered sub.

    I've been thinking about adding a powered sub as well. Does anybody know how a slim one would fit under the front passenger seat?
