fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum lines and
electrical wiring. Use extreme caution when cutting
or drilling in and around these areas.
• Choose a safe mounting location away from moisture.
• Make sure there is sufficient air circulation at the
mounting location for the amplifier to cool itself.
• Mount the amplifier,using the supplied hardware.

Speaker Output Connectors
• Connect the speakers to these terminals,observing
proper polarity. Gold screws indicate +, and silver
screws indicate –.
• Five-channel operation: Connect the front left
speaker to the Front L+ and L– terminals and
the front right speaker to the Front R+ and R–
terminals.Repeat for the rear speakers, using
the Rear L+ and L– terminals,and the Rear R+
and R– terminals.Connect the subwoofer to the
Sub+ and Sub– terminals.
• Four-channel operation: Connect the stereo speakers
to the Front terminals, as above.The single speaker,
into which the amplifier’s rear channels will be
bridged, must be connected to the Rear terminals
marked “B.” Connect the subwoofer to the Sub+ and
Sub– terminals.

Power Input Connectors
• +12V: Connect to the positive terminal of the vehicle’s
battery. 4 AWG wire is recommended.Install an
appropriate fuse holder and fuse (80A minimum) within
18' 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 illustration below.

4 AWG Adapter
• For power wire longer than 4' (1.2m),4 AWG wire is
recommended. Use the adapter to make the connection
according to the illustration below.

Rear Crossover-Filter Selector
• LP: Select for subwoofer(s) or to provide a low-pass
filter for separate mid-bass speakers.The subsonic
filter will provide a high-pass filter for separate
mid-bass speakers.
• FLAT: Select for full-range speakers when
no subwoofer will be used in the system.
• HP: Select for midrange speakers or full-range
speakers when a subwoofer is used in the system.
D
Front Crossover-Filter Selector
• LP: Select for subwoofer(s).
• FLAT:Select for full-range speakers when no
subwoofer will be used in the system.
• HP: Select for midrange speakers or full-range
speakers when a subwoofer is used in the system.
E
Input Selection Switch
• If you are using RCA-type inputs and the source unit
has a subwoofer output,and you have connected it to
the SUB input, set this switch to the EXT position.
Otherwise, set it in the INT position.
F
Subwoofer Input Connector (RCA)
• Connect to subwoofer RCA-type outputs from the
source unit or signal processor.
G
Rear Input Connectors (RCA)
• Connect to rear RCA outputs from the source unit,
or signal processor.
H

• Connect to front RCA outputs from the source unit
or signal processor.
I
Rear Input Signal Selection Switch
• If your source unit has only front RCA-type outputs
and they are connected to the amplifier’s Front input
connectors,move this switch to the FRONT setting.
If your source unit has 4 RCA-type outputs,leave it
in the 4CH position.

Setting Gain (Input Level)
A Turn all Gain controls counterclockwise to
6V (minimum).
B With a dynamic music track playing, turn the head
unit’s volume control to the 3/4 position.
C Turn Front Gain control clockwise until the music is
so loud that it no longer sounds clear (distortion is
present in the output).
D Turn Front Gain control counterclockwise gradually,
just until the music sounds clear, once again.
E Front Gain is now adjusted correctly.
F Adjust Rear- and Sub-Gain controls so that the level
of the rear speakers is proportionate to the level of
the front speakers, according to your preference.
