SPEAKER WIRING

Using 14 gauge or larger, run the speaker wires from the amplifier
location through the vehicle to the speakers. Observe the same
precautions for routing these wires that you followed for running
the power and remote turn-on wires. Locate the speaker/remote
turn-on

PowerLock

connector.

Although the

PC1400/PC1800

is a mono amplifier, you will notice

that there are two 'speaker negative' and two 'speaker positive'
terminals as well as the 'remote turn-on' terminal. The two pairs of
speaker terminals are parallel with each other, so you can use
one each of the positive and negative, or you can use both sets
for two speakers. Cut off excess and, using wire strippers, strip 1/
4 inch of insulation. Loosen the appropriate screws on the
underside of the connector, and insert the speaker leads into the
end. Check to be sure you've maintained proper polarity before
securing each wire, then plug the

PowerLock

connector into the

amplifier with the screws facing down.
