AUX INPUT WIRING
Typical 2 amplifier setup
MP3 or Portable Device as a Source
The XL Powersport Series amplifiers all feature a AUX source input. This allows you to substitute a portable
music device such as an iPOD, Smartphone, MP3 Player, etc instead of a traditional radio as your music
source. Above is a typical two amplifier system—a multi-channel amplifier (our 2-channel XL-2205M or our
4-channel XL-4165M) to power the full range speakers and a mono bass amplifier (our mono XL-355DM or
XL-605DM) to power the subwoofer(s).
You will need to use a quality shielded 1/8-inch (3.5mm) stereo male to male audio cable and “Y” adaptor (not
supplied) for this type of set up. Route the shielded audio cable using the same care as you would with the
RCA interconnect for a traditional source unit.
NOTE: A side panel AUX Input is available for use with portable MP3 players or an iPod ®* Use of
this input will override (defeat) the RCA low level inputs.
