Quick Start Guide

Before you start, please take a moment to visit our knowledge base: 

. It will help you with a 

plethora of sound advice, and help set the mood for the installation.

1.  The following details give a brief overview of the steps required 

to install the D-4.800 in your system. The steps below are ex-
plained in more detail throughout the on-line manual.

2. 

Undo the +12V and Ground connections to the car battery 
before making any connections to the D-4.800. 

3.  When making connections, designate red RCA plugs as right, 

and designate white, black, or grey plugs as left.

4.  Use quality interconnect cables. We know from experience that 

really cheap cables can cause a multitude of problems.

5.  Connect the +12V input terminal of the unit to the +12V termi-

nal of the vehicle battery.

6.  Connect the Ground terminal of the unit to the negative termi-

nal of the vehicle battery.

7.  Connect the remote power terminal of the unit to the remote 

turn-on switch of your source unit. Alternatively, you can skip 
this connection and use the GTO™ Signal sensing on inputs 1-2.

8.  Connect your audio inputs to the unit – either speaker-level or 

line-level RCA.

9.  Run the optional ACR-3 remote to the front of the vehicle to 

adjust the level on the fly.

10.  Note that the following initial setting up is carefully done with 

no speakers connected, to help prevent tweeter damage (for 
example) during the D-4.800 setup.

11.  When you are satisfied that all is looking good and correct, 

reconnect the vehicle battery. Make sure that any external am-
plifiers are off.

12.  Install the control application onto your computer, but make 

sure that the computer is not connected to the unit during the 
installation.

13.  Connect the computer to the unit using the USB micro connec-

tion, and run the application. The unit will be recognized and 
you can enter an initial password (1234) that you can customize 
later.

14.  Use the application to adjust every aspect of the D-4.800 oper-

ation until you have the system just right. Set up the optional 
remote control to adjust the levels you want.

15.  With the computer removed, the D-4.800 will now operate just 

as you have it set up.

16.  Turn off the power, and connect your loudspeakers to the 

D-4.800 or your external amplifiers.

17.  Turn on the system and play the source at minimum volume to 

begin with, then bring up the levels slowly.

18.  Enjoy the drive!
