Composition of Manual

This manual applies to the GM-X574 and GM-X374. However, the illustrations show the GM-X574.

In case of trouble

When the unit does not operate properly, contact your dealer or the nearest autho- rized PIONEER Service Station.

WARNING

•Always use the special red battery and ground wire [RD-223], which is sold separately. Connect the battery wire directly to the car battery positive terminal (+) and the ground wire to the car body.

•Do not touch the amplifier with wet hands. Otherwise you may get an electric shock. Also, do not touch the amplifier when it is wet.

•For traffic safety and to maintain safe driving conditions, keep the volume low enough so that you can still hear normal traffic sound.

•Check the connections of the power supply and speakers if the fuse of the separately sold battery wire or the amplifier fuse blows. Detect the cause and solve the problem, then replace the fuse with another one of the same size and rating.

•To prevent malfunction of the amplifier and speakers, the protective circuit will cut the power supply to the amplifier (sound will stop) when an abnormal condition occurs. In such a case, switch the power to the system OFF and check the connection of the power supply and speakers. Detect the cause and solve the problem.

•Contact the dealer if you cannot detect the cause.

•To prevent an electric shock or short-circuit during connection and installation, be sure to disconnect the negative (–) terminal of the battery beforehand.

•Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when drilling a hole for installation of the amplifier. Be sure to protect all cables and important equipment such as fuel lines, brake lines and the electrical wiring from damage.

This ensures that users enjoy robust sound performance, even at higher volume levels, without distortion.

Pioneer's GM-X574 takes things up a notch with its 5-channel configuration, making it ideal for systems that require additional power for subwoofers. Its power output reaches 50 watts per channel for the four channels and a substantial 150 watts for the subwoofer channel at 4 ohms, ensuring a deep, resonant bass experience. This model is especially appealing to those who want to build a comprehensive sound system without needing multiple amplifiers.

Both amplifiers are equipped with an array of technologies that enhance their performance. The built-in crossover network allows users to tailor the sound output according to their preferences, making it easier to achieve a balanced audio experience. The adjustable high-pass and low-pass filters ensure that the right frequencies are sent to the appropriate speakers, vastly improving audio clarity.

Durability is another key characteristic of the GM-X374 and GM-X574. Both models are constructed with high-quality components designed to withstand the rigors of automotive environments. The heat sink design promotes efficient heat dissipation, allowing for extended use without overheating, thereby ensuring longevity and reliability.

The amplifiers are also equipped with RCA inputs, making them compatible with a wide array of head units. This flexibility allows for seamless integration into existing audio systems. These features, combined with easy installation options and a sleek design, make the Pioneer GM-X374 and GM-X574 excellent choices for anyone looking to elevate their car audio experience.
