quick amp wiring question

I am installing my alpine mrp-f300 I am running the power under cab.
I am wiring the speakers back to the head unit and thru the factory harness as at only 50rms watts per channel I think it can handle it.

My question is can I run my RCA remote on wire and my speaker wire in same bundle to head unit?

Thanks for any help.

Are you saying running the rcas, remote and speaker wire together up to the head unit? Keep the power and remote wires away from the speaker wire and rcas. Run the power and remote on one side of the truck and rcas & speaker wire on the other.

The power wire will be run from battery to rear undertruck so that will not be an issue. I did not think the remote carried enuf voltage too cause any interference?

It caries 12v but the current is so minimal. I have run it with them with no issues.

Should be fine; I just ran four speaker wires, a 6 channel Monster Cable RCA, and remote turn on wire all together in my install with no noise at all.

I wouldn't do it just for the simple fact of what if.

even in what if, it takes what, an extra 5 min to tuck a remote wire to the back? But i see where you're coming from.
