antenna (remote) turn-on lead which will turn on the
amplifier when the source unit is activated. If this is
unavailable, a switched 12 volt source must be used. Run
a wire from the amplifier location through the vehicle to
the switched 12 Volt source. Observe the same precau-
tions for routing this cable that you followed for running
the power cable. Cut off excess wire and terminate the
wire with a spade connector. We suggest crimping and soldering this connec-
tion. Insulate the connection with heat shrink. It is important that this connec-
tion be solid. With a small flat bladed or Philips head screw driver, loosen the
terminal screw marked: Remote. Insert the spade connector into the appropri-
ate location and secure it by tightening the associated screw. Be sure the con-
nection is tight.
Speaker Connection
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 cables. It is impor-
tant to use 16 gauge or larger wire for proper signal
transfer. Cut off excess wire and terminate the wire with
spade connectors. With a small flat bladed or Philips
head screw driver, loosen the terminal screw marked:
Speakers. Insert each spade connector, one at a time, into the appropriate ter-
minal. Check to make sure you’ve maintained proper polarity before securing
each wire. Be sure the connection is tight.
Bridging
All M Series amplifiers are capable of being bridged into a mono output due to
the internal design of the amplifier. This feature permits
the creation of a mono channel for a subwoofer or center
channel. Also, bridging adds flexibility of operation. The
202m, two-channel amplifier can be used in a one channel
(mono), two channel stereo, or 3 channel – 2 channels
stereo and one channel mono configuration. The 404m,
four-channel amplifier, can be used as 2 mono channels, 3
channels – 2 channels stereo and one channel mono, 4
channels – 2 channels front and rear, 5 channels – 4 channels stereo and one
channel mono, or 6 channels – 4 channels stereo and 2 channels mono.
