A head unit should be able to run multiple amps easy enough, I have run 3 amps and a crossover and an eq all off the head unit, but if yours won't drive multiple units just use a relay that is controlled by the remote and then you could run 100's of amps off it then....

You don't necessarily have to split the remote wire at the head unit and run two remote wires through the car to your amps, to me that'd be a waste of money...

Instead, just run one wire (as you may have already) and strip some insulation off the remote wire say half a metre from the amps, then connect a new remote wire to the stripped section (make sure you solder it well and then wrap it in insulation tape). You should now have one wire that now has two ends, or a "Y" sorta shape. This has worked fine for me on the installs i've done and i'm no professional. Anyway, you'll save money spent on a couple unecessary metres of remote wire!
Just a suggestion..
