LOUDSPEAKER WIRING & CONNECTION

4-Channel Amplifier VE800.4 / VE1200.4

BALANCED INPUT CH 1&2 / CH 3&4

This Input can optionally be used with appropriate cables and 

symmetrical signal transmitters. Please do not use this Input at 

the same time as the RCA Inputs.

RADIO / HEAD UNIT

CONNECTION

• Connect the head unit line outputs (FRONT L & R and REAR L & R) with the RCA LINE INPUTs of the amplifier 

with appropriate RCA cables.

• Connect the speakers with SPEAKER OUTPUT CH 1 ( – /  +), CH 2 ( – /  +) and  the subwoofer with 

SPEAKER OUTPUT CH 4 ñ  and CH3 + of the amplifier. 

• The final speaker impedance should not be lower than 1 Ohm (or 2 Ohm for the Subwoofer) per channel. 

CONFIGURATION CHANNEL 1 & 2

• The threshold frequency for the HIGH PASS should be between 60Hz - 150Hz, depending on the size of speakers

and is adjustable by T5.

• When PHASE SHIFT is activated by T3 (Position ON) the acoustical center is adjustable by T1 and T2.

CONFIGURATION SUBWOOFER

 T7 should be set to BAND PASS. The upper threshold frequency of the LOW PASS should be between 

60Hz - 150Hz, depending on size of the subwoofer and is adjustable by T11. The lower threshold frequency 

(Subsonicfilter) is adjustable by T12 (See page 32).

• When the Pushbuttons T9 & T10 are pressed, the slew rate of the frequency response is raised up to 24dB in 

Mono mode (See page 32).

BASS BOOST

• F6 allows you to adjust the BASS BOOST between 0 and 18 dB. Please use the BASS BOOST carefully.

INPUT GAIN - Control

• Turn the INPUT GAIN - control  (T6 & T8) on the amplifier to 9V-Position. 

• Turn the head unit volume control to about 80-90% of ist full setting.

• Turn the INPUT GAIN - control (T6 & T8) clockwise until you hear some distortion.

• Then turn back the INPUT GAIN - control (T6 & T8) slightly until you can hear clean sound.

INPUT MODE

When you want to use

 

4 RCA 

cabels Input mode switch (T5) 

should be set on "4CH"-Position.  

LINE OUT (F1)

Optional triggering to

use additional amplifiers.

Caution!

Be careful not to connect speaker (-) to the ground or vehicle chassis.

Please observe speaker channel and polarity as printed by the speaker terminal block. 

Incorrect phasing of the speakers results in total loss of bass response.
