Gain Control

Adjusting the gain controls A and B will help match the output of the car stereo to the Pioneer amplifier. Normally, set the gain controls to the NORMAL position. If the output is low, even when the volume of the car stereo is turned up, turn these controls clockwise. If there is distortion when the volume of the car stereo is turned up, turn these controls counter-clockwise.

If you only use one input plug, set the gain controls for speaker outputs A and B to the same position.

When using with an RCA equipped car stereo (standard output of 500 mV), set to the NORMAL position. When using with an RCA equipped Pioneer car stereo with max. output of 4 V or more, adjust level to match the car stereo output level.

Input Select Switch

For two-channel input, slide this switch to the left. For four-channel input, slide this switch to the right.

Input Switch

It is possible to input from a car stereo external output (subwoofer output) or a car stereo speaker output. When using an external output (subwoofer output), slide the switch to the left. For connection instructions, see the “Connection Diagram” section. When using a speaker output, slide the switch to the right. In this case, it is necessary to use the supplied speaker input wire with RCA pin cord. For details, see the “Using the Speaker Input” sec- tion.
