WIRINGINSTRUCTIONS
The wiring of your crossover equalizer will depend on the
systemand speakers youareusingbut willeitherbea 2-way
(bassandmidrange/high) or 3-way(bass,midrangeandhigh)
applicationusing 2or4channelsof inputfromthecar stereo.
The following pages illustrate the input and output wiring for
these types. Please refer to the appropriate diagram for the
systemconfiguration youareusing.

Connecting these wires should not be overly difficult if the
following guidlines are adhered to: (See the installation dia-
gram.)

PowerConnection
(
Redwire
)
Pullthesourceunit(radio,amplifier,etc.)outfromthe
dashfarenoughuntilthewiresareexposedattherear
of the unit. Using a digital voltmeter, find a constant
+12Vdc lead for the radio, and splice into this wire.
Splice or solder the red wire from the wiring harness
and connect it inline with the +12Vdc wire using a
barrelconnectorofappropriatesize.
