Tuning and Controls
Your Powered Substation accepts either low (line) levels input from the RCA outputs
on your head unit or high (speaker) level input from your system’s speaker wiring. The
diagrams below illustrate both wiring schemes.
DO NOT USE THE LOW LEVEL AND HIGH
LEVEL INPUTS AT THE SAME TIME THIS COULD DAMAGE YOUR UNIT.
