1. Please read the owner's manual
carefully before you install the
crossover.
2. Disconnect the battery ground
terminal prior to making any
electrical connections.
3. Pick a mounting location that will
provide adequate access and ventilation and protect the crossover
from heat, moisture, and dirt.
When mounting the unit to the
floor pan or a fire wall, check both
sides for any hazards or obstructions such as gas tanks, fuel or
brake lines, and wiring harnesses.
4. Avoid sharp metal areas when
routing cables to the signal
processor, and run RCA cables away
from power cables and other potentially noisy car harnesses.
removing any paint at the ground
point, and using a crimped,
soldered terminal at the end of the
wire. Do not connect this terminal
to the ground terminal of an amplifier in the system.
7. Remote in - connect this terminal to
the amplifier remote output from
your head unit or signal source, if it
provides one. The remote terminal
of an amplifier is a good source for
this connection. This input requires
a switched +12V signal to activate
the crossover.
8. Remote out - Connect to remote
input of the amplifier(s).
9. RCA input - connect to RCA output
from radio or signal source. Always
use shielded RCA signal cables for
this input.
WARNING
High-powered car audio
systems may produce
sound pressure levels that
exceed the threshold at which hearing
loss may result.
They may also impair a driver’s ability to
hear traffic sounds or emergency vehicles. Use common sense and practice
safe listening habits when listening to
your audio system.

constant +12V source. The battery
+12V terminal of the amplifier or
the constant +12V supply to the
head unit are good locations for this
connection.
6. Ground - connect this terminal to
the car chassis. Make sure your
chassis connection is secure by

10. High-pass RCA output - connect to
the amplifier driving mid or high
frequency speakers using a shielded
RCA cable.

the amplifier driving subwoofers or
lower frequency speakers using a
shielded RCA cable.
