AutoMode Inputs: If your source unit has front, rear, and
subwoofer outputs (aka “six channel”), connect them to the identi-
cal inputs on your 6XS. However, if you are only using front and
rear signals (four channel) or just two channels, the Auto Mode
circuitry in your 6XS will automatically feed your subwoofer
channel with signal from your front inputs.

INSTALLING THE CHASSIS
Up to this point everything you have read has served to educate
you on the operations of 6XS. We are sure that you are chomping
at the bit to install 6XS so we recommend you read the following
sections very carefully.
Placement: The 6XS needs to be installed in the signal path
between your source unit and before any amplifiers. Since you
should not be changing the crossover modules while you are driv-
ing, the physical chassis of your 6XS can be mounted anywhere
within the vehicle.
Mounting: Once you have selected a permanent mounting
location for the chassis, position the unit and mark the appropriate
mounting holes with a felt-tip pin or scratch awl. Before doing
anything else, make sure you are not about to drill a hole in a gas
tank or pierce any existing wiring. Nothing ruins your day more
than an expensive repair bill. Drill a small pilot hole and secure the
chassis of the 6XS with self-tapping screws.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Failure to disconnect the negative terminal of your
battery prior to the installation of your 6XS can result
in a warm tingly feeling.
Remote In: Connect a 22 to 18 gauge wire
from the head-unit’s remote turn-on to the “Remote In” connector
on the 6XS.
Positive (+12V) Connection: Insert an 18 gauge or larger wire
into the connector labeled “Power” on the nifty connector of your
6XS. Connect it to a good constant source of 12 volts (we suggest
the battery), fused at 1 amp.
