Location and Mountina Routina Wires

The JXP amplifier’s compact design allows

greater flexibility in mounting. It can be

mounted under a seat or in the trunk.

When selecting a location, remember that

amplifiers generate heat. Select a location

where air can circulate around the amplifier.

Do not cover the amplifier with carpets or

enclose it behind interior trim panels. Do not

mount the amplifier in an inverted or upside

down configuration. Every installation will be

a bit different based upon vehicle design.

Check all locations and placements carefully

before making any cuts or connections.

Important

Allow air circulation around the amplifier.

Input Wiring

Low Level Input (RCA Input)

Low level (RCA) input is preferred for best

performance. Most trunk/hatchback installations

will require a E-20 foot RCA cable. While pick-

up trucks and under-seat mounting will require

a 6-12 foot RCA cable. Connect an RCA cable

from your receiver to the RCA input on your

amplifier.

Remote Level Control (JXP720)

REM01

BASS

Remote level control allows the input level to

be adjusted from an alternate location. It can

be mounted under-dash or in-dash.

When the amplifier is used to drive

subwoofers, and the low pass crossover is

activated, the remote level control can be

used as a “remote bass level control”. This

enables you to control the bass level,

independent from the rest of the system. This

is convenient for system tuning and/or when

playing many different types of music.

Important

Tri-mode operation requires using ‘passive

crossovers”. These crossovers are available

at your local retailer or install shop. Failure to

install these filters may damage your

amplifier and/or your speakers.

LEVEL

The input level control matches the

output of your radio to the input of

the amplifier. After the installation is

8V 3v

complete, make sure the input level

control on the amp is turned down

all the way (counterclockwise or all the way to

the left). Play a tape or CD (make sure bass

and treble settings or EQ are flat too) and

turn the volume up slowly until you just start

to hear distortion. Now back the volume down

just a bit. On the amp, slowly turn up the input

level control (clockwise or to the right) until

you just start to hear distortion and back it

down a bit. Now your radio and amplifier

levels are matched.

Testing

Before you finish the installation, you should do the following tests to make sure the wiring is correct

and everything is operating properly.

Reconnect Battery

When wiring is complete,

reconnect the battery

negative terminal.

Test Power Wiring

1. Turn on the receiver but do not turn up

the volume. The amplifier power light

should come on. If not, check the

REM and +12V wires.

2. Turn up the receiver volume slightly. All

speakers should operate. If not, check

wiring connections at amplifier and

speakers.

Test Speaker Connections

These tests make sure the speakers are

connected right. If speakers don’t play at all,

one (or both) speaker wires may be

disconnected. If the wrong speaker plays (you

hear left speaker when you expect right

speaker) make sure you connected the wires

correctly.
