RCA CONNECTION

Run RCA cables from your sound source to the

inputs of the amplifier. We suggest the use of high

quality shielded RCA patch cords to help to reduce

and eliminate unwanted electrical noise to your

system.

to avoid electrical noise from being injected in

to your sound systems be sure to run the RCA

cables on the opposite side of the vehicle that you

used to carry the power and ground leads of the

amplifier.

• RCA PReAMP oUtPUt. the preamp output is a full

range signal mixed from both input channels. Use

this signal to feed a secondary full range amplifier

in your system.

• 4-ChAnnel RCA InPUt (DAF 1004/1754). If your

head unit has only 1 pair of RCA outputs, you must

use a "Y" adaptor to split the signal to all four

SPEAKER CONNECTION

GENERAL WARNING

• DAF amplifier is extremely powerful and can

seriously damage any speakers which are not

specifically designed to handle such high power

inputs. thus, please ensure that your speaker

power ratings and impedance loading match the

amplifier.

• the speaker terminals can accept 8 gauge wire.

begin to hear any distortion in the sound, back

down one notch and your amp is set.

It is helpful to have a second person to help you

set the gain.

When setting up a multi-amp system, set each

amplifier's gain separately. Start off with the bass

amplifier, then adjust the highs amplifier's level

control to match.

once you are satisfied with the level control

settings, use any equalizer controls to adjust the

system tonal level for personal preference. Keep

in mind that after equalizing, you may have to go

back and reset the amplifiers level controls.

The level control of any car audio amplifier

should not be mistaken for a volume control. It

is a sophisticated device designed to match the

output level of your source unit to the input level

of the amplifier. Do not adjust the amplifier gain

to maximum unless your input level requires it.

If your unit has been professionally installed

please do not change the gain settings by the

installer, he is the professional!

Your system can also be extremely sensitive to

noise when the level is set to maximum and does

not match your input signal. the gain adjustments

need to be made only once when first setting up

the system.
