Connect the „B+“ connector of the con-
nection terminal of the power supply
directly to the positive terminal of the car
battery.
Connect the "REMOTE" or "REM"
connector to the terminal on the power
supply, to the remote control connector
or to the antennae control output of the
car radio.
Connect the „GND“ connector of the
connection terminal for the power supply
to the negative terminal (ground) of the
battery or to the car body.
☞
Distribute the power supply in a star-shaped way, i.e. the connections of the
negative leads start from one and the same point for all components of the
car hi-fi system. This way of distributing the power supply avoids mass
loops.
Connect the positive leads in the same way.
Connecting the Inputs
Model XCA 1500 and XCA 2000
The amplifier is provided with cinch inputs to be connected to the car radio.
Car radios with cinch outputs can be directly connected to the input sockets. If your
car radio is only provided with loudspeaker outputs, a suitable audio frequency
adapter is to be used for the connection.
Model 1000 and XCA 1002
The amplifier has both loudspeaker and cinch inputs to be connected to the car
radio.
If your car radio has cinch outputs, the amplifier should be connected via the cinch
inputs in any case to ensure a high playback quality.
But if your radio car is not provided with cinch outputs, you can connect the amplifier to
the loudspeaker outputs without requiring any additional devices or adapters.
Never use the two input types (loudspeaker and cinch inputs) simultaneously.
The amplifier will be switched on via this
input, if a voltage of +12V is applied.
Nowadays, almost all car radios are
provided with such a control output
which only c12V if the radio is
turned on.
Attention! Since the electrical conduc-
tivity is continuously limited due to the
increasingly used gluing technology or
the lacquered metal parts, not each
metal component is suited to function
as a mass point.
