Here are the steps on how to connect an amplifier to a head unit without RCA hook ups using a speaker-level input converter:
1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. This will prevent any electrical damage from occurring while you are working.
2. Locate the speaker wires from the head unit. These wires are typically located in the back of the head unit, and they are usually color-coded.
3. Connect the speaker wires from the head unit to the input terminals of the speaker-level input converter. Make sure to match the positive wires to the positive terminals, and the negative wires to the negative terminals.
4. Connect the RCA output terminals of the speaker-level input converter to the input terminals of the amplifier.
5. Connect the power and ground wires of the amplifier to the battery and chassis of the vehicle, respectively.
6. Turn on the head unit and the amplifier. Adjust the gain of the amplifier so that the sound is not distorted.
7. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
Here are the steps on how to connect an amplifier to a head unit without RCA hook ups using a high-to-low converter:
1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. This will prevent any electrical damage from occurring while you are working.
2. Locate the speaker wires from the head unit. These wires are typically located in the back of the head unit, and they are usually color-coded.
3. Connect the speaker wires from the head unit to the input terminals of the high-to-low converter. Make sure to match the positive wires to the positive terminals, and the negative wires to the negative terminals.
