a SPEAKER OUTPUT CONNECTORS
• Connect the speakers to these terminals,
observing proper polarity.
• Two-channel operation: Connect the left speaker
to the L+ and L– terminals and the right speaker
to the R+ and R– terminals.
• One-channel (bridged) operation: Connect the
single speaker to the R+ and L– terminals.
• Minimum speaker impedance for two-channel
operation is 2 ohms. Minimum speaker impedance
for one-channel (bridged) operation is 4 ohms.
b FUSE
• Replace only with the same type and rating.
c POWER INPUT CONNECTORS
• +12V: Connect to the positive terminal of the
vehicle’s battery. 10 AWG wire is recommended.
Install an appropriate fuse holder and fuse (15A
minimum) within 18" (460mm) of the battery. Make
sure the wire is not damaged or pinched during
installation. Install protective grommets when
routing wires through the firewall or other sheet
metal.
• GND: Connect to the vehicle’s chassis. Refer to
the picture below.

h CROSSOVER-FREQUENCY CONTROL
• 12dB/octave crossover, variable from 32Hz to
320Hz.
• See l for the adjustment procedure.
i CROSSOVER-FILTER SELECTOR

(distortion is present in the output).
D Turn Input-Level control counterclockwise
gradually, just until the music sounds clear once
again.
E Input level is now adjusted correctly.
