AMPLIFIER POWER REQUIREMENTS
Your new GXR Loudspeaker will work well with a variety of electronic components. As little as 10 watts per channel will deliver adequate listening levels in most cars.

If, after following these hookup and installation directions, you experience difficulty, please double- check all wire connections.

If you still get no sound from that side, the problem is in your amp or source electronics. Should you isolate the problem to the speaker, contact the authorized Polk Audio dealer where you bought your speakers. Authorized Polk Audio dealers are the best source for advice and assistance.
