7. Securely mount the amplifier to the vehicle or amp rack. Be careful not to mount the amplifier on
cardboard or plastic panels. Doing so may enable the screws to pull out from the panel due to road
vibration or sudden vehicle stops.
8. Connect from source signal by plugging the RCA cables into the RCA/Speaker Harness input jacks,
then insert the four pin Molex connector into the mating four pin INPUT connector at the amplifier.
NOTE: When the installation requires a High Level(Speaker) input, the RCA/Speaker
Harness will need to be cut on the speaker wire side of the y-splitter.Then
connect the white to the left(+), white/black to the left(-), grey to the right(+),
and grey/black to the right(-) corresponding vehicle wires.
CAUTION: Always ensure power is off or disconnected at the amplifier before
connecting RCA cables. Failure to do so may cause injury, damage to the
amplifier and/or connected components.
9. Connect the speakers. Strip the speaker wires 1/2" and connect to the Speaker Wire Harness
(PBR300X1) or insert the bare wire into the Molex speaker terminal and tighten the set screw to
secure into place (PBR500X1), then insert the Molex connector into the mating SPEAKER connector
at the amplifier. Be sure to maintain proper speaker polarity. DO NOT chassis ground any of the
speaker leads as unstable operation may result.
10. Perform a final check of the completed system wiring to ensure that all connections are accurate.
Check all power and ground connections for frayed wires and loose connections which could cause
problems. Install inline fuse near battery connection.
NOTE: Follow the diagrams for proper signal polarity.
