DESIGN FEATURES
6. Internal Crossover (Models 150S & 200S) – Is a built-in 12dB/octave Butterworth filter
selectable between 120Hz High-Pass (HP),, All Pass (AP), or 80Hz Low-Pass (LP) operation.
6.
Variable Crossover (All Other Models) – Is a built-in 12dB/octave Butterworth filter selectable
for High-Pass (HP), All Pass (AP), or Low-Pass (LP) operation variable from 50Hz to 210Hz.
7. Gain Control – The input gain control is preset to match the output of most source units. It can
be adjusted to match output levels from a variety of source units.
8. RCA Input Jacks – The industry standard RCA jacks provide an easy connection for signal level
input. They are gold-plated to resist the signal degradation caused by corrosion.
9. High Level Inputs – The high level inputs use a detachable connector terminated with 20 AWG
leads. These inputs should be used if the source unit has only speaker line (high level) outputs
and not RCA outputs.
10. Speaker Terminals – These gold-plated connectors are immune to corrosion that can cause
signal deterioration. Model 200S utilizes a barrier strip that will accept #10 spade lugs or bare
speaker and power wires sized from 10-18 AWG. All other models use heavy duty, gold-plated
terminal block connectors (+ and –) will accept wire sizes from 8 AWG to 18 AWG.

This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for installing your new Amplifier. Pre-
planning your system layout and best wiring routes will save installation time. When deciding on
the layout of your new system, be sure that each component will be easily accessible for making
adjustments.
CAUTION: If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed
by a qualified technician.
CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to
prevent damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.
Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:
1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install the Unit.
2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting your Source Unit in place.
4. Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any high current wires.
5. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.
6. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic
lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle.
7. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle provides the best
protection.
8. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any
wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.
