it depends on how powerful your amp is. if you went to a cookie cutter type installer (best buy, circuit city), they won't re-wire it for you. if you went to a high end place, there's really no excuse for not properly routing / shielding the cables. if your amp is low power, the filter is fine. if you're concerned with overloading the filter, add another one in parallel.
