instructions can result in injury or unit damage.

CAUTION: To prevent injury and damage to the unit, please read and follow the

instructions in this manual. We want you to have enjoyment from this
system, not a headache.

prevent damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.

Design Features

A.  High Level (Speaker) Inputs: The high level inputs use a detachable connector terminated with 20

AWG leads. These inputs should be used if the source unit has only speaker line (high level)
outputs and not RCA outputs.

B. RCA Input Jacks – Line Level from Radio Pre-outs: The industry standard RCA jack provides an

easy connection for signal level input. They are platinum coated to resist the signal degradation
caused by corrosion.

C. Gain Control: The input gain control is preset to match the output of most source units. They can

be adjusted to match output levels from a variety of source units.

D.  Crossover Filter Switch:

HPF for High Pass - Mid-Tweeter.
FULL for All Pass - Full Range.
LPF for Low Pass - Subs.

E.  Speaker Connections: Follow correct polarity, and do not ground any speaker wires. Do not

connect any speaker wires together.

F.  Power Connector terminals: Connects Power, Ground, and Remote

G.  Power Fuse: If this Fuse should blow, determine the cause or see your authorized dealer. Never

replace the fuse with one of greater value than the original

H.  Adjustable Crossover Frequency Control: 40-400Hz.

I.  Bass Boost Switch: Applies 12dB of 50Hz Bass Boost.

J.

Pass Thru Outputs: The Pass-Thru provides a convenient source for daisy-chaining an additional
amplifier without running and extra set of RCA cables from the front of the vehicle to the rear
amplifier location.

K. Remote Level Control (LA1.300.2 Only): Attenuates Gain set on the amplifier by up to -12dB
