INSTALLATION Typical Wire Routing High Level Input (Speaker Wire) High level inputs should only be used when RCA outputs are not available from the head unit. Connect the head unit speaker outputs to the high level input connector as shown below. The black wire (signal reference ground) may or may not require a connection to chassis ground - depending on your particular installation. Do not use both low and high level inputs at the same time. Connect only one or the other.

Step 2 Lace the mounting straps so that they pass through the brackets mounted on the base. Step 3 Place the JW10A on the brackets as shown. Step 4 Lace the mounting straps through the buckles.

INSTALLATION Control Setup and Adjustment Input Signal Connections Low Level (RCA) Crossover Frequency Control Phase Control Low level (RCA) input signal is preferred for best performance. Typical trunk-mount installations require a 17-20 foot RCA cable. Most trucks and behind-seat applications require a 6-12 foot RCA cable. Using twisted pair construction RCA cables will minimize noise. The adjustable crossover is used to filter out frequencies above 50Hz ~ 250Hz.
