guidelineꢀonly.  
PowerꢀWireꢀ(+12V)  
• Disconnect negative battery terminal before proceeding. Consult a qualified  
technician for instructions if you are unsure.  
• Plan wire routing before cutting any wires to length. Begin by routing the power  
+12V wire from the battery to the amplifier location. Use a grommet when running  
wires through the firewall or metal openings. Avoid running the power wire near  
existing vehicle wiring to prevent induced noise from entering the audio system.  
• Use extreme caution when drilling holes to avoid damaging fuel lines or existing  
vehicle wiring.  
• The +12V wire MUST be fused within 18" of the battery for protection of the vehicle’s  
electrical system.  
GroundꢀWireꢀ(GND)  
• The amplifier ground wire should be as short as possible. Choose a clean unpainted  
section of metal or the vehicle chassis when attaching the ground connection.  
Be sure to clean the area of any dirt or grease.  
RemoteꢀTurn-onꢀWireꢀ(REM)  
• The remote turn-on wire connects to the head unit's amplifier turn-on lead or  
power antenna output.  
SpeakerꢀWires  
• Choose adequate gauge speaker wire depending on your exact amplifier/speaker  
combination. Be sure to observe polarity when connecting.  
• Do not ground any speaker wires or connect any speaker wires together.  
IlluminiteꢀCircuitꢀ(12VDCꢀOutputꢀ-ꢀforꢀDUALꢀilluminiteꢀspeakersꢀonly)  
• Use 18-gauge or larger wire for making the connections to the illuminite terminals  
of DUAL illuminite speakers ONLY. Be sure to observe polarity when connecting.  
• Do not ground any illuminite output wires or connect any illuminite wires together.  
InputꢀSignalꢀ  
• The amplifier's input signal connects to the head unit's low level (RCA) or high level  
(speaker wire) outputs.  
• Low level input signal deliver the best performance. If unavailable, use the high  
level inputs - when interfacing with factory head unit for instance.  
CAUTION  
• Do not use both low and high level inputs at the same time - connect only one or  
the other.

MainꢀPowerꢀConnections  
Connect +12V, GND and REM wires accordingly. A suitable fuse MUST be installed on the  
+12V lead within 18" of the battery for protection of the vehicle’s electrical system.  
FuseꢀRating  
Power/GroundꢀWireꢀSize  
When replacing fuses, make sure  
new fuse is the correct type and  
amperage. Using an incorrect fuse  
could damage the amplifier.  
For optimum performance, use only  
the wire size listed below or larger.  
Make sure to use the same size  
power and ground wire.

OutputꢀConnections  
The lighting elements of DUAL illuminite speakers provide you with a unique custom  
touch to your vehicle. Dual’s patent pending illuminite LED system and control circuitry  
provides an extraordinary blue-hue illumination which allows great creative opportunities  
for the beginner and seasoned custom installer alike. DUAL XIA-series amplifiers provide  
a dedicated switched 12VDC output including independent fused protection (2 amp)  
specifically for use with illuminite speakers.  
DUAL illuminite speakers have two distinct sets of input terminals. The first is labeled  
audio input terminals and the second is labeled illuminite lighting inputs. The inputs are  
clearly marked with a label positioned directly above the terminal housing. The polarity  
(+ and -) indicators for each set of inputs also appear on these labels.  
1. Do not connect the amplifier speaker outputs or any audio source to the illuminite  
lighting inputs.  
2. Refer to the figures below for making the connections. Make sure to observe polarity  
as the illuminite circuitry will not operate when connected reverse polarity. Connect  
either red wire from the XIA amplifier illuminite outputs to the positive (+) illuminite input  
terminal and connect either black wire from the XIA amplifier illuminite outputs to the  
negative (-) illuminite input.  
Additionalꢀilluminiteꢀwiringꢀnotes:  
Several illuminite speakers can be connected to the 12VDC illuminite output at one time.  
Refer to the table below for the individual illuminite speaker current requirements.  
If you are unsure, consult a qualified professional or call DUAL technical assistance at  
1-866-382-5476 for further information.

SpeakerꢀConnections  
Connect speaker wires observing  
polarity. The minimum impedance  
load is 2 ohms stereo and 4 ohms  
bridged. Use of loads lower than  
these is not recommended and  
may cause amplifier damage.  
The XIA5600 can be wired for  
stereo, bridged or stereo/bridged  
simultaneous operation.

InputꢀSignalꢀConnections  
LowꢀLevelꢀInputꢀ(RCA)  
Low level (RCA) input signal is preferred for best performance. Typical trunk-mount  
amplifier installations require a 17-20 foot RCA cable. Most trucks and under-seat  
applications require a 6-9 foot RCA cable. Using twisted pair construction RCA cables will  
minimize noise.  
HighꢀLevelꢀInputꢀ(SpeakerꢀWire)  
High level inputs should only be used  
when RCA outputs are not available  
from the head unit. Connect the head  
unit speaker outputs to the high level  
input connector as shown below. The  
black wire (signal reference ground)  
may or may not require a connection  
to chassis ground - depending on your  
particular installation.  
CAUTION: Do not use both low and high  
level inputs at the same time - connect  
only one or the other.

XIA5600ꢀOPERATION  
Configuration/Setup  
InputꢀlevelꢀControl The input level control (gain) is used to obtain the best  
possible match between the head unit audio output and  
the amplifier input. Begin by turning the input level control  
fully counterclockwise. Next, turn up the head unit volume  
control around 3/4 of the way up. Adjust the input level  
control clockwise until audible distortion is heard, then  
slightly counterclockwise to provide the best match.  
CrossoverꢀꢀMode The crossover is used to filter out frequencies above or  
below a certain point. Choose LPF when using the amplifier  
with subwoofers and FULL when using with coaxial-type  
speakers.  
NOTE:  
Choose FULL when using the amplifier in stereo/bridged  
simultaneous mode. In this mode, passive crossovers are  
required. Failure to use the correct passive components  
may damage the amplifier and/or speakers. Consult a  
qualified professional for recommendations.  
CrossoverꢀFrequencyꢀControl This control allows precise adjustment of the crossover  
frequency.  
BassꢀBoost This control provides additional boost @ 45Hz when used  
with subwoofers. Adjust this control with caution - as  
improper use can damage speakers!  
LEDꢀIndicator The LED indicator illuminates green during normal  
operation (POWER) and red when the amplifier detects a  
fault (PROTECT).
