INPUT WIRING & CONTROLS

Low Level Input (LOW-INPUT)

Low level (RCA) input is preferred for best 
performance. Most trunk/hatchback 
installations require a 15-20 foot RCA cable, 
while pickup trucks and under-seat mounting  
require a 6-12 foot RCA cable. Connect an 
RCA cable from your receiver to the RCA input 
on your amplifier.

Input Level (LEVEL)

The input level control matches the radio output  
to the amplifier input. After installation, turn the 
input level control all the way to the left, then 
insert a tape or CD. Make sure the bass and 

treble or EQ settings are flat, then turn the 
volume up slowly until you hear distortion. Turn 
the volume down slightly. To match the amplifier 
input, slowly increase the amplifier input level 
control (turn clockwise) until you hear distortion, 
then turn it down slightly. After completing this 
process, your amplifier levels will be matched.

High Level Input (HIGH LEVEL)

High level input should be used when an RCA 
output is not available from the receiver.

NOTE: Only connect the RCA OR High-Level 
Input – not both at the same time.

Connect the speaker outputs from the receiver 
to the high level input connector, then plug the 
connector(s) into the “HIGH INPUT” outlet(s) on 
the end of the amplifier.

NOTE: The black wire from the high-level 
input harness MUST be grounded for the 
high-level input circuit to operate properly.
