No you shouldn't have any problem. Just make sure your wires are good so that you don't create an electrical short.

No you will not get any feedback. I have my power wires for the 2 amps, cross over, EQ, and head unit along with the grounds running right beside each other...

------------------
Current 3rds...92 3.1 coupe and a 91 T top 305 Past camaro's 74Z28, 2 75 camaro's bretilina and a 76 z28. Past rides HA HA too many to count, at least 20..LOL Kills to date a new one today a 98-up Grand prix..I know They usually eat us alive but I hit third hard and chirped he flashed his lights and backed off!!! a 3.1 firebird 2 stop lights in a row.
95 Grand Am
Serveral Honda's
a friends 91 Rustang LX(I know its a 4 but he keeps trin')

Planned mods:
Soon coming 3 inch exhaust, 1.6 rockers, High flow 'Verter, and Ignition system. Along with a complete turbo 4.3 swap planned later this year(hoping to get into the 10's..)
Current mods:
Set of Iroc sway bars front and rear..amazing differance, Air box bottom completely removed allowing my K&N to act like an open element filter.
Lower profile tires, 195/55/15 front 205/55/15 rear handles better.
And a 160 deg thermo for a V8(and yes it works just fine)

Sterio Sony CD head unit and 9 band EQ, Boston acutics 4x6 dash, Alpine 3 way 6x9 sail, California sounds active crossover, Kroiiler 600 watt amp powering the 'pines and Bostons, 600 watt Jensen powering 2 Rockord Fosgate RFZ1812 subs. And all this cost less then $575...

You won't have a problem. Every power wire in your car runs directly beside a ground. The chassis of your car is grounded, so in effect, every wire is next to ground. Plus if you look at an amp, the power and ground wires are almost always next to each other.
