wires, use the alternate methods "B" or "C".
B. The
XO-1©
red wire can be connected along with the amplifier remote turn-on
(trigger) wire to a CS-1 current sense adaptor (available as an accessory through
an authorized LINEAR POWER dealer).
C. The
XO-1©
red wire can be connected through a toggle switch (current rating
is not important) to the fuse panel.
IMPORTANT:
THE
XO-1©
POWER WIRE
SHOULD NOT BE DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO A SOURCE OF POWER
WHICH WILL BE HOT EVEN WHEN THE IGNITION IS TURNED OFF, AS
BATTERY DRAIN MAY OCCUR AFTER AN EXTENDED PERIOD.
MAIN GROUND
Connect the black ground wire to a car chassis ground, preferably to the same
point at which the amplifiers are grounded.
2.
INPUT
Connect the right and left inputs on the
XO-1©
to the right and left outputs from
the music source. If the output of the music source is high level (designed to
connect directly to a speaker) obtain a set of high level adaptor plugs from your
LINEAR POWER dealer and follow the enclosed directions.
3.
OUTPUTS
(BI-AMP)
Low Frequency:
Connect the right and left low frequency outputs from the
XO-1©
to the right and
left inputs on the low frequency amplifier. The low frequency speakers (woofers)
can then be connected to the output of the low frequency amplifier.
High Frequency:
Connect the right and left high frequency outputs from the
XO-1©
to the right and
left inputs on the high frequency amplifier. (See DIAGRAM A for
interconnections.)
4.
OUTPUTS
(Mono-bridge subwoofer)
In a mono subwoofer system, the low frequency amplifier's outputs are strapped
together (bridged) by the
XO-1©
to sum the power of both channels into one to
drive a single 8 ohm woofer. In this configuration, both of the speaker ground
wires are unused and should be taped and dressed away from the other wiring.
The woofer can then be connected directly across the right and left speaker
output "hot" wires from the low frequency amplifier by attaching the green wire to
the woofer positive terminal and the grey wire to the negative terminal.
