Quick Install Guide 

Since some of you will want to install your Matrix Plus on your own 

we offer a few reminders in the following short section to speed up your 
installation.

 Physically mount the Matrix Plus in a location that keeps it away 

from soda spills, food crumbs, and curious fingers. 

 The Matrix Plus needs to be installed as close to the source unit as 

possible. Connect RCA cables from source unit to Matix Plus inputs. If 

this is not obvious to you, quickly pack up your Matrix Plus and run to 
your nearest authorized AudioControl dealer to have them perform the 
installation. You will thank us later. 

 Use RCA connecting cables to connect the RCA outputs of the 

 

Matrix Plus to your amplifier(s).

 C12 power, and ground.  

 

Connect your head units Remote turn on 12-volt trigger to the Matrix 

Plus. 

 Turn your amp gains fully down before turning on the system. 

 Turn on the system and level match your Matrix Plus to your source 

unit, signal processor and amplifiers. For more help see our technical 
videos at http://www.audiocontrol.com/t34/Mobile-Audio.html
If you have your authorized AudioControl dealer install your Matrix Plus, we 
will extend the normal one-year warranty to a full five years. AudioControl 

products are, by nature, more technical than many others and we spend a good 
deal of time training our dealers and installers so we know our products will 
be installed correctly.

The dash control may be mounted under the

spot where the LED is plainly visible.
