Inputs and Controls

Input Wiring

Important
Use only the low level or high level input, do
not use both at one time.

Low Level Input

Use a pair of shielded stereo audio cables with
RCA type jacks. Most trunk-mount amplifier
installations require 20-foot RCA cables. Most
under-seat  and pickup truck installations use
12-foot cables.

Connect RCA cables from your receiver to the
RCA input jacks on the amplifier.

High Level Input

Connect left and right speaker wires coming
from radio to high level input plug as shown.

Inputs may be high level (from the receiver's
speaker) or low level (from special low level
outputs). Low level input is preferred for best
performance.
