About Connecting to the Speaker Input Level System
When connecting by using the Speaker-RCA Conversion Cable ( ) (sold separately), switch the Input Level
and Turn-on Type Switch ( ) to “HI”.
e.g. S2-A36F
Input Level and Turn-on Type Switch RCA Input Jacks
[HI]
Front Speaker output lead (L)
Head Unit, etc.
Rear Speaker output lead (R)
Front Speaker output lead (R)
Rear Speaker output lead (L)
• Do not mistake the Speaker Output Lead on the head unit side connected to this unit.
Front Speaker output (L)/(R) to CH1/CH2, Rear Speaker output (L)/(R) to CH3/CH4
• For the “Speaker Input Level System” setting, connecting the Remote Turn-On Lead is not required due to
the “REMOTE SENSING” function of this product. However, the “REMOTE SENSING” function may not work
depending on the signal source connected. In such a case, connect the Remote Turn-On Lead to an
incoming power supply cord (accessory power) in the ACC position.
Important Tips on Connection with Y-adapter
Low output will result if only one channel input is used. The Y-adapter is required if Head Unit, etc. has only
a one signal output.

Cautions on Power Supply Wires
Use the specified wire size according to the total fuse capacity of the amplifier to be installed and the wire
length.
For details on the wire size to be used, refer to the supplied “Cautions on Power Supply Wires Connection”
and the following connection example.
Connection example when installing an amplifier alone
• When the wire length from the amplifier to the vehicle’s battery is (A)
Wire size used for (A):
S2-A36F: 8 AWG/8 mm
2
(Max. length 6.5 m)
S2-A55V: 4 AWG/21 mm (Max. length 10 m)
• External Fuse capacity: Make it equal to or larger than the fuse capacity of the amplifier
S2-A36F: equal to or larger than 40 A
S2-A55V: equal to or larger than 60 A
(A)

Vehicle’s chassis
Vehicle’s battery
Amplifier
Connection example when installing two amplifiers with a fuse capacity of 40 A
and one amplifier with 60 A
• When the wire length from each amplifier to the distribution block is 1 m
Wire size used for (B): 8 AWG/8 mm
2
• When the wire length from the distribution block to the vehicle’s battery is 6 m
Wire size used for (C): 1/0 AWG/53 mm
2
(or 4 AWG × 2/21 mm
2
× 2)
• External Fuse capacity: Make it equal to or larger than total fuse capacity of the number of amplifiers
installed
60 A + 60 A + 40 A = equal to or larger than 160 A

NOTE:
• If the length of the power and ground cables exceed 1 m, or if you connect more than one amplifier, a
distribution block should be used.
