POWER WIRE SPECIFICATIONS:
Red Wire and Blue Wire – Connect these two wires to a +12V power supply.
Black Wire – Connect this wire to the negative or other good power ground.
Notes:
• Use the included plug/wire bundle to connect to the power source and speakers.
• The Red, Blue and Black power wires should be 16AWG or larger depending on the length
to the power supply. NEVER operate the unit without the proper power and ground wire.
• NEVER ground the speaker leads and NEVER allow the speaker leads to come in contact
with each other. The speaker wire should be at least 20 gauge or larger. Be sure to observe the
correct polarity on the speaker connections
• Use quality crimp connectors to connect wires together. Seal the connection well with electri-
cal tape.
• NEVER operate the unit without proper fusing. Fuse holder must be located within 2 feet
from the power supply. This fuse is to protect the vessel, not the electronics. In case of a short,
the fuse will blow instead of the wire burning up. Using other than the recommended fuse
ratings at the power supply and at the unit may cause damage to the unit and will void your
warranty.
• Whenever possible, use cable ties, mounting clamps and similar wiring aids. Adding stress
relief loop to wiring is also advisable to prevent straining or breakage.
• If after reading the directions you feel uncomfortable about installing the unit, or not
equipped or competent to do so, you should have this installed by a professional installer
• Connect the white and grey loudspeaker wires to 1 or 2 pairs of loudspeakers. Pay close at-
tention to polarity (black stripe = negative)
• Connect the green and purple loudspeaker wires to 1 or 2 pairs of loudspeakers or to a sub-
woofer if the low pass filter switch is depressed
