13. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as the power in­put terminals are damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
14. This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no object lled with liquids, shall be placed on the apparatus.
15. Fuses shall be replaced only with the correct type and fuse value, and only when the apparatus is powered o.
16. Exposure to high sound pressure levels may lead to permanent hearing loss. Take every precaution to protect your hearing.
The lightning ash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure, that may be of sucient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and mainte­nance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Caution: to reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the apparatus, other than to remove the top panel to access the controls. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualied personnel.
Recycling notice: If the time comes and this apparatus has fullled its destiny, do not throw it out into the trash. It has to be carefully recycled for the good of mankind, by a facility specially equipped for the safe recycling of electronic apparatii. Please contact your local or state recycling leaders for assistance in locating a suitable nearby recycling facility. Or, contact us and we might be able to repair it for you.

1. Fuses 40A – Replace these fuses only with the exact same style and Ampere rating. Disconnect 12V power before changing or inspecting the fuses.
2. Power Input Terminal +12V – This screw terminal connects to the +12V battery binding post of the vehicle. Use quality insulated wire, 4 to 0 AWG.
3. Remote Power Input Terminal – This screw terminal connects to the 12V remote trigger output of some head units. When the head unit is turned on, then the LC-6.1200 will turn on. Alternatively, this terminal will output +12V if the LC-6.1200 turns on using GTO signal sensing. This can be used to remotely turn-on power ampli­ers when the LC-6.1200 is awoken by the GTO.
4. Power Input Terminal Ground – This screw terminal connects to a good ground connection on the vehicle. Use quality insulated wire, gauge 4 to 0 AWG.

5. RCA Analog Line-Level Inputs – The line-level output from the head unit or factory-installed radios can connect here, so the LC-6.1200 amplier will receive the line-level audio signals. Do not use these inputs if you are using the speaker-level inputs.
6. RCA Analog Line-Level Outputs – The line-level output can connect to external ampliers or subwoofer ampliers.
7. Speaker-Level Inputs – The speaker-level output from ampliers and factory installed radios can connect here. Do not use these inputs if you are using the RCA line-level inputs.
8. Remote Control Connector – This connects to the ACR-1 remote level control.
9. Speaker-Level Output Terminals – These screw terminals connect with speaker wire to your loudspeakers Make sure that the average combined speaker impedance does not dip below 2 Ohms, or 4 Ohms in bridged mono mode.

Quick Start Guide
10. Power LED – If you have connected your battery power, vehicle ground, and turn-on lead (or GTO signal sensing) correctly, then this light should be green to indicate the power is ON.
11. Protection LED – The amplier has built-in diagnostic codes to tell you exactly what is going wrong should the amplier detect a problem. See page 15 for a list of diagnostic codes.
12. GTO Signal Sense – In the ON position, the LC-6.1200 amplier will turn on gracefully when it detects an incoming audio signal on inputs 1 and 2, and it will turn o after a period of time when the audio signal fades away to silence. Turn this OFF if using the remote power terminal (see item 3 above) turn on method.
13. Front High Level – Adjusts the Front High speaker-level input levels, to achieve a nice balance in levels.
14. AccuBASS®/ACR-1 – Enables/disables the AccuBASS® circuit and the ACR-1 remote level control for outputs 1 and 2. If enabled, the ACR-1 controls the level of the level of the 1 and 2 outputs and line outputs. If disabled, then it just controls the line outputs (to a subwoofer for example). The AccuBASS® has its own controls to work wonders on the lower bass and line outputs.
15. HP Crossover Frequency – Selects the HP crossover point to match your speakers and system. Channel 1 and 2 outputs will receive the frequency range above the frequency selected. Use the crossover range switch (16) to select the range from 30 to 300 Hz, or from 500 Hz to 5 kHz. The crossover for channels 1/2 is high­pass only.
16. Crossover Range – Use this switch to select the range of the HP crossover frequency control (15) from 30 to 300 Hz, or from 500 Hz to 5 kHz.
17. Mono/Stereo – Ampliers 1 and 2 can be joined in mono to pow­er a single more powerful speaker (4 Ohm minimum).
18. Gain Control – Adjusts the overall 1 and 2 output levels.
19. AccuBASS® Threshold – Selects the level at which the AccuBASS®
will begin to work.
20. AccuBASS® Level – Adjusts the level of the AccuBASS®.
21. 1/2 and 3/4 Bus Sum – This sums the 1/2 and 3/4 inputs together.
So two inputs (L/R) can feed four outputs (2L/2R).
22. AccuBASS®/ACR-1 – Enables/disables the AccuBASS® circuit and the ACR-1 remote level control for outputs 3 and 4. If enabled, ACR-1 controls the level of the level of the 3 and 4 outputs and line outputs. If disabled, then it just controls the line outputs (to a subwoofer for example). The AccuBASS® has its own controls to work wonders on the lower bass of the outputs and line outputs.
23. HP Crossover Frequency – Selects the HP crossover point to match your speakers and system (if the crossover switch (24) is set to HP). The channel 3/4 outputs will receive the frequency range above the frequency selected. If the crossover switch is set to bandpass, then this selects the top frequency of the band.
