NOTE: Do not connect BOTH the high level and low level inputs from your
receiver to your amplifier at the same time.
Low Level lnput Wiring
Low-level (RCA) input wiring is prefered for best audio performance. Most trunk or
hatchback installations will require a 15-20 feet RCA cable, while pickup trucks and
under-seat installations will require a 6-12 feet RCA cable. Always use a high quality
cable.
High Level lnput Wiring
Most headunits are pre-installed from the car factory and have no RCA out-put, in
this case you can use the signal from the speaker output. Connect left and right
speaker wires coming from the car stereo to the high level input as shown. Be sure
to observe polarity to avoid audio phase pro-blems.

The DLS ACW10 amplifier could go into protect mode and not turn on after replacing the blown fuse due to the following reasons:

1. Short circuits on the speaker leads.
2. Overdriving from the head unit (volume set too high).
3. Faulty amplifier requiring servicing.
4. Improper grounding.
5. Remote input (Turn-On) voltage less than 5VDC.

These issues should be checked and corrected before repowering the amplifier.
