your individual auto sound system. Your
local RadioShack store carries a full line
of wire and wire management accesso-
ries.
Cautions:
• For added safety and to protect your
amplifier and auto sound system,
disconnect the cable from your vehi-
cle’s negative (–) battery terminal
before you begin.
• Be sure your speakers can handle
as much as 200 watts of power (100
watts per channel if you connect
your auto sound system to one pair
of speakers, or 200 watts per chan-
nel if you connect your auto sound
system to a subwoofer and bridge
the amplifier’s outputs). Each
speaker must have an impedance of
at least 4 ohms. Your local Ra-
dioShack store carries a full line of
speakers.
To make it easier to gauge wire length
and connect the amplifier, temporarily
place the amplifier as close as possible
to the selected mounting location.
