Key Features:

• Speaker Inputs: Connect to Head Unit or Amplifier Speaker Outputs: Receives the audio signal that your amplifier can’t handle directly, ensuring compatibility with factory systems.
• Outputs: Connect to Amplifier Inputs: Processes the signal to match the requirements of your aftermarket amplifier, ensuring clean and powerful audio output.
• REM In and REM Out: REM Turn-On Input: Activates the device using a remote turn-on signal.
• REM Out: Provides a remote turn-on signal to one aftermarket amplifier, ensuring synchronized power control.
• Load Select: 20-ohm/60-ohm/20k-ohm Options: Adapts to various OEM head units that require specific resistance loads to output audio signals. Select the appropriate load to ensure proper functionality.
• Ground Isolation: Multiple Isolation Settings: Helps eliminate alternator whine or ground noise by trying different grounding configurations.
• GND: Power supply shares the same ground as the audio.
• ISO: Power supply ground is separated from the audio.
• 200-ohm: Adds a 200-ohm load between the power ground and audio ground.
• Gain Adjustment: 9.5V RMS Output: Adjusts the output signal for each channel pair to match the input sensitivity of your amplifiers.
• Clip Indicators: LED Indicators: Light up when the output signal gets distorted, helping to prevent clipping and ensure clean audio output.
• Low Pass Filter (LPF): Adjustable LPF: Filters signals above 250 Hz for the rear channels, ideal for subwoofer integration.
• Bass Boost: 0-12dB Boost at 45Hz: Enhances low-frequency output, providing a richer bass experience.
• Turn-On Modes: REM: Traditional remote turn-on method.
• DC Offset:  Activates when the head unit is on, using a DC offset signal.
• Audio Detection (AUD): Activates when the head unit plays audio, whether radio, CD, or Bluetooth.
• Input Mode: 4CH to 6/8 Outputs: Distributes the signal from 4 speaker level inputs to 6 or 8 outputs, with LPF and Boost settings still applicable.
• Remote Level Control: Optional Remote Level Control for Rear Channels: Provides attenuation control for the rear channels, allowing for easy adjustment from the driver’s seat.
