If you're trying to put an equaliser in between a source and an preamp or integrated amp, the amp needs to have tape OUT or dubbing OUT connections. This will go to the eq's IN. Then eq OUTs should be connected to the tape or dubbing IN on the amp. When playing any source you set the amp's source selector to tape or dubbing IN and now what you are hearing is coming through the equaliser.

SOURCE: Installing RCA outputs on an EQ.

You can, but first touch the 2 speaker wires to the RCA connections on the circuit board and see if sound comes out. IF so, then solder in 2 RCA jacks

SOURCE: Need help connecting my eq to my system.

You will want to connect all of your devices to the pre-amp or receiver, then connect the outputs of your pre-amp/receiver to the inputs of the EQ. Then connect the outputs of the EQ to the inputs on the amplifier or receiver. If you give me some model numbers, I would be able to tell you exactly which cables go where.

SOURCE: hi i trying to figure

Without having the exact model numbers of all your Pioneer deck and your Clarion EQ, what I can do for you is send you to the following website:

http://www.ehow.com/how_7207112_wire-car-equalizer.html

Once you get to the page scroll down to the link called AudioControl: EQX Owner's Manual. Download that pdf file. It is actually the owners manual to an EQX equalizer. If you then look at page 10 and 11 they show you a wiring diagram that will probably fit what you are looking for. Essentially what you are going to do is the following:

1) Wire the main output of your deck to the Epicenter unit.

2) Wire the Epicenter main outs to the Balanced Input of your Clarion EQ.

3) Run the Highpass connections from the Clarion EQ to your Tweeter amplifier, and then wire the amps output to your Tweeters.

4) Run the Lowpass connections from the Clarion EQ to your Subwoofers amplifier, and then wire the amps output to your Subwoofer. If you have two separate amps for two separate subs then wire accordingly.

5) If you are going to use your 4 channel amp to run your tweeters and your midrange speakers, then you would run the full range output of your EQ to the two channels of the amp that would be your main or midrange speakers. Then you would run the Highpass outputs of your EQ to the 2 channels of the amp for your tweeters, and then the ouput of those two channels would go to your tweeter speakers.


This should give you the necessary information to wire up all of your components. IF you need any further information then please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thank you for the opportunity to assist you in resolving your issue. Should you need further information or assistance please do not hesitate to let us know.

SOURCE: hi i trying to figure out how to wire up my rca's

The "Front output" from the Pioneer deck would connect to the "Main In" on the Clarion EQ. I'm assuming that your Clarion EQ can only deal with one input, and will send the adjusted (equalized) signal out both of the outputs.
The "Front output" from the Clarion EQ should go to the "Front Input" on the 4 channel amp.
The "Rear output" from the Clarion EQ should go to the "Rear Input" on the 4 channel amp.
The "Sub output" from the Pioneer deck would connect to the Left/Right Input on the Epicenter. The Left/Right Output on the Epicenter would need a Y-splitter for each side, so that you could connect each amp separately. One suggestion would be to use one sub amp for both subs.

Where is pre out im having trouble hooking up amp and eq

You have to use the TAPE 2 (or monitor) on the receiver. It will take two sets of RCA cables. Both the receiver and the EQ will have an input and an output.

  • Run the output/REC (from TAPE 2) to the input on the EQ.
  • Then, run the input from the receiver (TAPE 2 again) to the output on the EQ.
The EQ will have another 2 sets of RCA jacks to hook up a second tape deck (because you used the jacks on the receiver for the EQ). You don't have to hook anything to these if you don't want to, or don't have a second tape deck.

The receiver will have a monitor button, which most of the time is labeled as TAPE 2/MONITOR. Select whatever input you want to use (CD, Tuner, Aux, etc.), then press the MONITOR/TAPE 2 button. When that is on, the EQ will be in the audio chain - you'll be able to use the EQ to adjust the sound. If you turn the MONITOR off it will take the EQ out of the audio chain - the EQ settings won't affect the sound.

Keep in mind, the EQ will also have a button to select the TAPE 2 input. If you have a second tape deck hooked up to the EQ, this is how to use it. Make sure that the tape input is off on the EQ, if you aren't listening to that second tape deck.

I have a Pioneer VSX-D308 reciever and I have a EQ. How do I hook it up to this reciever?

I only know of one way to do this and here it is:

1. Plug your tape deck's output (cassette or R2R) into the EQ's "Line In".
2. Plug the EQ's "Line Out" into the Receiver's "Tape 1 Input".
3. Now plug the Receivers "Tape 1 Output" into the Tape Player's "Line In".
4. You have now made an "FX loop" for the Tape Deck. Now you just have to put the Tape Deck on "Tape Monitor".....put the Receiver on "FM"..... and turn on your favorite FM station and you will hear the FM Receiver THROUGH the tape deck's "Monitor Send" AND the EQ.............set EQ to taste....... and BINGO.......DONE!

Enjoy,

I have a Amp,CD player,Tuner,and DVD player. no a tape deck.how can i conect all, with out a tape deck through eqeualizer.

You can connect the EQ on the tape in/output of your amplifier. Tape out (or monitor out) to the input of the EQ and tape in to the output of the EQ.
Listen to the tuner and than switch to the tape input, the tuner input will be still active. But in the tape "mode" your EQ will be active too.

Having a hard time connecting various audio components

Yes, it is a little tricky...

1) CD Changer (output) -> CD input on Amp

this is tricky... this will allow you to record to your tape deck, and control the sound via the EQ:
2) Tape Deck (tape out / recout) -> TAPE PLAYBACK on EQ
3) Tape RecOut on EQ -> Tape 1 Playback on Amp
4) Amp Tape 1 RecOut -> Tape Deck Playback / Input / RecIn
in essence, your creating a loop starting from the tape deck, going to the eq, then to the amp, then back to the tape deck to record.

Your EQ has another set of LINE IN and LINE OUT - use the second Tape 2 on the amp to create another loop. This will
allow you to control the EQ for any of the other sources.
5) LINE IN on EQ -> Tape 2 RecOut
6) Tape 2 Playback on Amp -> LINE OUT on EQ

5) Radio Tuner (output) -> Tuner input on Amp
6) DVD/VCR Combo Output -> AV/AUX on Amp

7) PC Computer... you don't have room for this. You can either use the PHONO input, and you'll have to purchase a Line Level Phono Converter
or, get a Y cable and split the signal and share with some other source.

Hope this helps.
