If the output is low, even when the volume of the car stereo is turned up, turn these controls clockwise. If there is distortion when the volume of the car stereo is turned up, turn these controls counter-clockwise. • If you only use one input plug, set the gain controls for speaker outputs A and B to the same position. • When using with an RCA equipped car stereo (standard output of 500 mV), set to the NORMAL position. When using with an RCA equipped Pioneer car stereo with max. output of 4 V or more, adjust level to match the car stereo output level.

Gain Control
Adjusting the gain controls A and B will
help match the output of the car stereo to
the Pioneer amplifier. Normally, set the
gain controls to the “NORMAL”
position. If the output is low, even when
the volume of the car stereo is turned up,
turn these controls clockwise. If there is
distortion when the volume of the car
stereo is turned up, turn these controls
counter-clockwise.
If you only use one input plug, set the gain
controls for speaker outputs A and B to the
same position.
When using with an RCA equipped car
stereo (standard output of 500 mV), set to
the NORMAL position. When using with
an RCA equipped Pioneer car stereo with
max. output of 4 V or more, adjust level to
match the car stereo output level.
Power Indicator
The power indicator lights when the
power is switched on.
RCA Input Select Switch
For two-channel input, slide this switch
to the left. For four-channel input, slide
this switch to the right.
Cut Off Frequency Control
Combining LPF/HPF/BPF and
LOW/HIGH select switch settings lets
you select between cut off frequencies
from 40 to 120 Hz and 3k to 9k Hz.
