pins and reinserted across the left hand and middle pins to enable the Auto Turn-On feature. This can be done
easily with a pair of needle nose pliers. With the jumper in the On position, the Amplified Bazooka will turn
on automatically when it senses any music. The ORANGE wire should not be connected to anything if this
feature is being used. Be sure to insulate the end of the ORANGE wire so that it will not short to ground, as
this may damage the Amplified Bazooka.

Should I Use High or Low Level Inputs?
If the source unit has only speaker outputs, use the high-level inputs of the Amplified
Bazooka. If the source unit has both high and low level outputs, we recommend using the
high level inputs over the low level inputs, due to the configuration of the Amplified
Bazooka's balanced input circuit. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE WIRING IN A FACTORY
STEREO MAY NOT BE ELECTRICALLY IN PHASE EVEN WHEN YOU HAVE MADE THE
PROPER CONNECTIONS. Take the time after you make your wire connections to run
through the quick phase check procedure in the AM I IN PHASE? Section of this manual.
NEVER USE BOTH high and low-level inputs at the same time!
High-Level Inputs:
If the source unit has both front and rear speaker outputs, use only one set of speaker
outputs for the high-level input of the Amplified Bazooka. Connect the GREEN wire
from the 14-pin Molex plug of the Amplified Bazooka to the source units left (+) pos-
itive speaker output. Connect the GREEN W/BLACK stripe wire of the plug to the
source units left (-) negative speaker output. Connect the GRAY wire of the plug to
the source units right (+) positive speaker output. Connect the GRAY W/BLACK stripe
wire of the plug to the source units right (-) negative speaker output.
PHASE ALERT
When one of the Amplified Bazooka's High-level Input channels is out of phase electrically
with the other High-level Input channel your Bazooka will sound as if it has little or no out-
put, and any output that is produced may sound distorted. If you suspect that your Bazooka
is out of phase, use the AM I IN PHASE procedure to diagnose and correct the Bazookas'
output, and proper bass response will be produced.
