The ZX amplifi er has dual input sensitivity differential RCA inputs which will receive either high or low level signals
from your car stereo’s source unit. Ideally, when connecting the source unit to the amplifi er, the ZX amplifi er’s
input level switch should be set to “LO” and a low-level signal should run from the source unit’s stereo RCA
output to the stereo RCA input on the end panel of the amplifi er using RCA interconnect cable. If a low-level
stereo RCA output is not available on the source unit, the signal can be delivered to the amplifi er using the
high-level speaker outputs on the source unit. Set the input level switch on the end panel of the amplifi er to “HI”.
Crimp and solder RCA connectors to the end of the speaker wire running from the high-level speaker outputs on
the source unit and connect the wire to the RCA Inputs on the end panel of the amplifi er or
simplify the installation
by using a KICKER ZISL
as shown below. Keep the audio signal cable away from factory wiring harnesses and
other power wiring. If you need to cross this wiring, cross it at a 90 degree angle.

Install a fuse within 18” (45cm) of the battery and in-line with the power cable connected to your amplifi er. If you
ever need to remove the amplifi er from the vehicle after it has been installed, the ground wire should be the last
wire disconnected from the amplifi er--just the opposite as when you installed it.
