Linking Mono Amplifiers
DUAL AMP INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
1. Connect the amp LINE INPUTS to the Radio/CD player full range or mono line out
puts with good quality RCA interconnect cables.
2. Plug the MBQR-2 level remote module into the amp REMOTE INPUT jack on the
Master amp. This will allow the Master amp to control both Master and Slave amps
with just one Remote.
3. Connect an RCA jumper cable from the Master amp MASTER OUTPUT to the
Slave amp SLAVE INPUT. Note: This will "link" the amps so that the Master amp
crossover switches will control both the Master and Slave amps. The Slave amp
crossover switches will be bypassed.
4. Make sure that the MASTER amps' MODE switch is in the Master Out position. Next
you need to make sure that the SLAVE amps' MODE switch is in the Slave In position.
