INTERCONNECTION
• Connect the RCA lineouts of the headunit with the RCA jacks LINE INPUT of the amplifier with appropriate high-value RCA cables.
• Connect the front- or rear speakers with the speaker outputs (SPEAKER 1CH - and + 2CH -) by using appropriate wires.
• Ensure by any means, that the total impedance load of all speakers at each channel is not lower than 1 ohms. Too low impedance
cause high temperature and will shut down the amplifier operation.
• Always ensure the correct polarity of the speakers. The interchange of plus and minus cause total loss of bass playback and could
damage the speakers.
CROSSOVER SETTINGS
• By using bigger speakers (more than 20cm) you can set the X-OVER switch to the FULL position (Full Range Signal).
• By using smaller speakers (8.7cm - 16cm) you must set the X-OVER switch to the HP Position (Highpass Mode) to avoid damage any
by lower frequencies on the speakers. The cut-off frequency is adjustable with the HI PASS controller and should be set between
60Hz to 150Hz, depending on the size of the speakers.
• The LOW PASS and SUBSONIC Controllers are not in use in this interconnecting example.
• The push-button
STEREO 12 dB / MONO 24 dB
is without any purpose in this interconnecting example
LEVEL CONTROLLER
• Turn the LEVEL controller of the amplifier to the 9V position.
• Turn the volume controller of the headunit to 80 - 90% of its full setting.
• Turn the LEVEL controller clockwise until you hear some distortion.
• Then turn back the LEVEL controller slightly until you hear a cleaner sound.
BASS BOOST CONTROLLER
• The BASS BOOST controller must be turned to 0 dB position in this interconnecting example .
BASS REMOTE
• The enclosed BASS REMOTE Controller is not in use in this interconnecting example.

Do not connect loudspeaker cables with the vehicle chassis. Always ensure the correct polarity
of all connections. The interchange of plus and minus cause total loss of bass playback and could
damage the speakers.
