      That 3.5A is the current draw for the amplifier simply being turned on. That is not being pulled from the remote wire of the DSP. I don't see remote current draw in the specs you listed, but guestimating it's probably less than 100mA. The 500mA remote line of the DSP can probably handle the 4 amps, but if it were me, I personally would go ahead and do a relay. In addition, I would also stick a 500mA fuse on the remote out of the DSP. The fuse is cheap protection.
      Thank you, sir. Drawing below is about right? Will be using 14 gauge for REM wire. please feel free to add any suggestions.
      I was thinking about this busbar, anything better than this one?

      get a pair of these and connect 2 power and 2 ground wires from it to the amp wiring harness.
      Many thanks, that was my suspicion that some smaller gauge wiring block must be used. Do you find it odd for a 8x60watt amp to have the equivalent of a 12 gauge power lead? Just curious if you see that elsewhere (or maybe more common with EU mfg'ers)? Thanks again for the link. I ordered a set.
