Power Series OM 4/15/99 9:17 AM Page 4 Wiring the Power Connections Refer to Figures 1–3 for connector locations. All the Power Series amplifiers will accept up to 4-gauge power and ground wire. For power, remote and ground connections, strip off one end of each jacket to reveal bare wire for insertion into the connectors. Connect a wire from the GND connector on the amplifier to the nearest bare-metal chassis component; scrape away the paint to ensure good conductivity.
Power Series OM 4/15/99 9:17 AM Page 5 Wiring the Input-Signal Connections Connect a pair of signal cables with RCA-type ends between the connectors on the amplifier and the RCA-type signal connectors on the source unit. If your radio has only speaker-level outputs, you should connect them to the speaker-level input connectors, observing proper polarity.
