Sub & Amp - R32 Instructions

[GTS4-32]

Hey guys, i just recieved a 15" pioneer subwoofer in box and big amp. The problem is, i have no idea where to plug what? Im a beginner at wiring things together such as subs n amps and i get real impatient trying to figure it out myself...

So i was just wondering if anybody would be kind enough to give me simple instructions on where to plug what and anything i need to do to get it working good, before i do something wrong that could possibly damage it!

So any help would be much appreciated...

Here's some pics that may help understand my situation...

Thanks,

Steve.

yeah, searching (and not just SAU) is probably a good way to learn the basics.

Briefly though... RCA cables out of Head Unit, into "line in" or whatever of the amp. (always power off when doing this). Speaker wire comes out of speaker terminals of the amp, and into the speaker terminals of the sub. Search for "bridging" incase you want more beef out of the amp.

For power, red goes to positive on battery (B+), preferably with an inline fuse, and black is an earth or ground (GND) cable, best to run to the chassis, as short a cable as possible, onto a really clean metal surface.

Remote (REM) wire must come from the "remote" output of your Head Unit, and run to the "remote" input of the amp. This tells the amp to turn on when the head unit is on.

Oh, and those RCA cable are pretty crummy, and you don't need the yellow one (a colour usually reserved for video signals). Buy 5m or so of just stereo RCA cable, good quality.... and for power you'll need another 6m of thick red wire.

I've put this really simply, just to give you a rough image, but if you're going to do it yourself, definately read up a bit on audio/power.
