BASSLINK 4SC INSTALLATION
This owner’s manual assumes BassLink II is
installed in your vehicle. If you are installing
both units simultaneously, refer to the BassLink II
owner’s manual for instructions regarding the
mounting of BassLink II and the REMOTE LEVEL
control, and to this owner’s manual for tuning.
DESCRIPTION
The BassLink 4sc is a four-channel plug-and-play
amplifier designed to make upgrading your
system easy. The BassLink 4sc is designed to
slide into an available slot in the BassLink II. The
BassLink 4sc also includes a Phantom Center
circuit, which creates the illusion of a center
channel without requiring a center speaker.
INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect BassLink II’s power connection
from the battery.
2. Remove the wiring cover from BassLink II.
3. Remove, but do not discard, the eight screws
that hold the AMPLIFIER DOCK cover panel in
place (Figure 1).

Note: In order for the Phantom Center circuit to
operate properly, the speakers and input wires
MUST be connected in proper polarity!
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
Connect the speakers to the FRONT and REAR
screw terminals, observing proper polarity
(Figure 3).
Figure 3.
INPUT CONNECTIONS
You must connect full-range signal to all four
inputs on BassLink II (if you are using the 4sc).
Do not connect a subwoofer output to any of
the inputs if you are using the 4sc.
Connect the input signal wires according to
Figures 3a through 3d.
If your source unit provides only speaker-level
output wires, connect those wires to the Universal
Interface connections as shown in Figures 3a or 3b.
If your source unit provides line-level outputs
with RCA-type connectors, connect the signal
cables to the FRONT and REAR LINE LEVEL
inputs as shown in Figure 3c or 3d.
Note: If your source unit provides two line-level
outputs and two speaker-level outputs, you may
connect the line-level output to the appropriate
(front or rear) RCA-type input and the speakerlevel outputs to the other (front or rear)
Universal Interface connector.
