F E A TURES AND C ON T R OL S 1. Line Out RCA Jacks - The LINE OUT allows you to build multiple amplifier systems without having to use splitter cords to distribute the signal. Now it is simple a matter of bringing one set of RCAs into the first amplifier, then using the line out RCA jacks as the feed to the next amplifier. 2. Line Input RCA Jacks - These inputs are for signal cables from the source. Always use high quality shielded RCA cables. 3. Input Level Controls - Enables the matching of

T R OUBL E SHO O T ING Before removing your amplifier, refer to the list below and follow the suggested procedures. Always test the speakers and their wires first. A MPLIFIER WILL NOT POWER UP. Check for good ground connection. Check that remote DC terminal has at least 13.8v DC. Check that there is battery power on the +terminal. Check all fuses. Check that Protection LED is not lit. If it is lit, shut off amplifier briefly and then repower it. H IGH HISS OR ENGINE NOISE (ALTERNATOR WHINE) IN S
