W IRING T HE S YSTEM CAUTION: Avoid running power wires near the low level input cables, antenna, power leads, sensitive equipment or harnesses. The power wires carry substantial current and could induce noise into the audio system. 1. Configure the internal XCard crossovers prior to installation. Refer to the XCard Configurations on pages 14 &[...]

U SING P ASSIVE C ROSSOVERS A passive crossover is a circuit that uses capacitors and/or coils and is placed on speaker leads between the amplifier and speaker. The crossover delegates a specific range of frequencies to the speaker for optimum driver performance. A crossover network can perform one of three functions: High-Pass (capacitors), Low-Pa[...]

This means that it is very important that the signal level throughout the system be optimized BEFORE dealing with you[...]

III. MOVE THE DECK. If you're at this step, it's time to turn your system into an “amplified deck” by temporarily relocating the deck right ON TOP of the clean amplifier . Then using very , very short signal cables, connect the output of the deck into the input of the amp and test for noise. Play a zero bit track – silence – and m[...]
