1. Use direct burial wire and measure out how much you will need. 
2. Dig a 6-inch deep trench to each speaker.    
3. Connect the speaker wire to the speaker. It is recommended that you use heat-shrink tubing 
to seal each individual conductor, then heat-shrink the two connections together.  
 
Make sure that all connections are secure.  A poor connection can lead to corrosion and a 
damaged speaker.
4. Run the wire through the trench to the amplifier.  
5.  Connect the speaker wire to the terminals on the back of your amplifier.
Make sure that the speaker wires’ polarity is connected correctly.
+ (positive, red) to speaker red wire (positive)
– (negative, black) to speaker black wire (negative)
Note: If using the XJ-300FR Stereo Amplifier, wire as described on the adjacent page but bridge 
the two positive (red) wires to the subwoofer.  This uses the Stereo option and the Mono option 
at the same time. 
6. Turn your amplifier on and test the system with your favorite music.  If the speakers are 
operating properly, refill the trench.

Earthquake Sound’s XJ-300FR Stereo amplifier can be used for your ROCK-on 2.1 system.     
In tri-mode wiring, the user can connect the 2 channel stereo and the mono at the same time.  
The subwoofer connection below demonstrates a series wiring formula which has a load 
impedance of 8? .  
To simplify the wiring process, use Earthquake Sound’s 
SWAT 2.4 Wireless Transceiver
1. Connect the rock speakers and subwoofer to the XJ-300FR amplifier as shown above. 
2. Connect the SWAT 2.4 Receiver to the XJ-300FR amplifier through the RCA inputs.  
3. Connect the SWAT 2.4 Transmitter to any music player that has a mini jack or RCA output.  
Note: Make sure both the Transmitter and the Receiver are connected to a power source, 
either through the DC power supply or the USB port.
