Note:  See wiring chart on next page for connection tips, wire colors and functions. Also note preamp level output connections if using external amplifiers and ZONE control capability.

  • We recommend wire-to-wire connections such as power, ground and speaker wiring are soldered and protected with either heat shrink tubing or high quality electrical tape.
  • The main (yellow) power wire should be connected to a source with at least 10 amps of additional current capability to support the unit.

Preamp Level Audio Connections

  • Front and rear RCA preamp outputs are labeled as such. These are intended to be connected to external amplifiers, not included.
  • Subwoofer RCA outputs (green RCAs) are mono and paralleled. They are identical subwoofer audio signals. Their frequency range is controlled by the low pass crossover and the subwoofer level control. Both are found in SETTINGS. See Page 18. We recommend starting with 100Hz for the low pass crossover point.
  • The unit offers a zone control feature to balance sound levels between different zones. The front and/or rear RCA outputs (using external amplifiers) are one zone. The source unit’s built-in power is the other zone. An example is a boat having separate volume control of amplified wakeboard tower speakers versus cabin speakers positioned closer to listeners using the unit’s built-in power. Zone level control is found in SETTINGS. See page 18. Subwoofer RCA outputs or speaker-level outputs are unaffected by the zone level control. All work with the main volume.

Rear Mounting Instructions

  • Check for appropriate mounting depth and mechanical or electrical obstacles behind the mounting panel BEFORE any cutting. Including the “U”-shaped aluminum mounting bracket, at least 4” (100mm) depth is required.
  • Using a 3” hole saw or air saw, cut a 3” (76.2mm) diameter hole in the mounting panel. Use a file or sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges after the cut is complete.
  • Thread the two supplied bolts into the back of the multimedia controller using a 9/32” nut driver or deep socket. The threaded holes are located just above the wiring harness in the heatsink.
  • Thread two of the supplied 9/32” mounting nuts upside down on the bolts. The flat surface of the nut will sit flush with the inside of the mounting bracket to allow spacing (if needed).
  • Insert the source unit through the mounting hole opening. Be sure to allow enough depth for wiring to be securely tied up once the installation is complete.
  • Attach the aluminum mounting bracket to gauge the sizing and that it will fit over the supplied threaded bolts. If necessary, use pliers to break away the marked sections until the bracket fits snugly against the mounting panel. Be sure the bracket clears the wiring on the back of the unit without rubbing or heavily bending the wires.
  • Attach the remaining supplied 9/32” mounting nuts on the threaded bolts to secure the mounting bracket.

Front Mounting Instructions

  • Check for appropriate mounting depth and mechanical or electrical obstacles behind the mounting panel BEFORE any cutting. At least 3.75” (95.25mm) depth is required.
  • Using a 3” hole saw or air saw, cut a 3” (76.2mm) diameter hole in the mounting panel. Use a file or sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges after the cut is complete.
  • Remove the snap-in covers on the front panel hiding the mounting holes. Use a small flat head screw driver in the two small indents on each cover to gently pry open.
  • Insert the source unit through the mounting hole opening. Be sure to allow enough depth for wiring to be securely tied up once the installation is complete. Ensure the source unit is level.
  • Mark four (4) holes using an awl, straight pick tool or 1/16″ (1.5mm) drill bit to make the markings. DO NOT DRILL THROUGH WITH THE SOURCE UNIT IN PLACE.
  • Remove the source unit and gently drill the four (4) marked locations for mounting holes using a drill with a 1/16″ (1.5mm) drill bit.
  • Re-insert the source unit in the opening. Gently install the four supplied screws in each of the mounting holes with a handheld screwdriver. Do not use drills or battery-powered screw guns for this step.
  • Replace the snap-in covers on the source unit’s front panel.
