1.

 

LINE IN (RCA) Jacks 

The RCA style input jacks are for use with source units that have RCA line level 

outputs.  A source unit with a minimum of 250mV is required for proper operation.  

However, this input will accept levels up to 6Vrms.

 

 

2.

 

LINE OUT (RCA) Jacks 

RCA style output jacks allow for a signal to be sent to other amplifiers.

 

 

3.

 

GAIN Control 

This control is used to match the input sensitivity of the amplifier to the particular 

source unit that you are using. 

 

4.

 

BASS EQ Control 

This equalization circuit is used to enhance the low frequency response of the vehicle’s 

interior.  With up to 18dB of boost centered at 45Hz, the BASS EQ can be adjusted to 

meet your own personal taste.
