Installation
The MATCH UP 10DSP must be installed and
connected as follows:
Caution: Carrying out the following steps will re-
quire special tools and technical knowledge. In
order to avoid connection mistakes and / or dam-
age, ask your dealer for assistance if you have any
questions and follow all instructions in this manual
(see page 28).
1. Connecting the System Connector
1. Connecting the highlevel speaker inputs A -
D: The highlevel loudspeaker inputs (see
page 33, g. 3, no. 1 - 4 and 11 - 14) can
be connected directly to the loudspeaker
outputs of an OEM radio, aftermarket radio
or factory installed amplier by using the
enclosed MATCH connection cable. It is
not mandatory to use all highlevel speaker
inputs. It is su󰀩cient if two of four highlevel
loudspeaker inputs are connected. With the
DSP PC-Tool software it is possible to route
the input signals to the 11 output channels
individually.
Make sure that the polarity is correct. If one
or more connections have reversed polarity
it may a󰀨ect the performance of the amplier.
If this input is used the remote input (REM
IN) does not need to be connected as the
amplier will automatically turn on once a
loudspeaker signal is received.
2. Connecting the loudspeaker outputs A - D:
The loudspeaker outputs (see page 33,
g. 3, no. 5 - 8 and 15 - 18) can be connect-
ed directly to the wires of the loudspeakers
by using the enclosed MATCH connection
cable. Never connect any of the loudspeak-
er cables to the chassis ground as this will
damage your amplier and your speakers.
Ensure that the loudspeakers are correctly
connected (phase), i.e. plus to plus and mi-
nus to minus. Exchanging plus and minus
causes a total loss of bass reproduction. The
plus pole is indicated on most speakers. The
impedance per channel must not be lower
than 4 Ohms, otherwise the amplier protec-
tion will be activated.
Attention: Solely use the System Connector
connection cable which is included in deliv-
ery or an appropriate cable harness from the
MATCH accessories program for connection!
2. Connecting the highlevel speaker inputs E -
H (optionally)
The highlevel loudspeaker inputs E - H can be
connected directly to the loudspeaker outputs
of an OEM radio, aftermarket radio or factory
installed amplier using the enclosed MATCH
connection cable. Make sure that the polari-
ty is correct. If one or more connections have
reversed polarity it may a󰀨ect the performance
of the amplier. If this input is used the remote
input (REM IN) does not need to be connected
as the amplier will automatically turn on once
a loudspeaker signal is received.
Attention: Solely use the connection cable with
the 8-pole connector and ying leads which is
included in delivery or an appropriate cable har-
ness from the MATCH accessories program!
3. Connecting a digital signal source
If you have a signal source with an optical digi-
tal output you can connect it to the amplier
using the appropriate input. In standard con-
guration the manual activation via an optional
remote control is congured. Alternatively you
can activate the automatic turn-on feature in the
DCM menu of the DSP PC-Tool software.
The feature activates the digital input as soon
as a digital audio signal is detected. The auto-
matic turn-on circuit does not work when a dig-
ital input is used. Therefore it is mandatory to
connect the remote input (REM IN).
Important: The signal of a digital audio source
normally does not contain any information
about the volume level.
Keep in mind that this will lead to full level on
the outputs of the UP 10DSP and your connect-
ed ampliers. This may cause severe damage
to your speakers. We strongly recommend to
use an optional remote control for adjusting the
volume level of the digital signal input!
Information: The MATCH UP 10DSP can only
handle uncompressed digital stereo signals in
PCM format with a sample rate between 12 kHz
and 96 kHz and no Dolby-coded digital audio
stream!
