Welcome!
This owners manual is written in easy english and uses a lot of drawings to simply the installation and use of the above amplifiers. Your DLS amplifiers must be installed correctly in order to work well. [. . . ] With the Hi/Low input swich set to Hi, the amplifier turns on automatically on high input. You dont need to connect a separate remote wire from your head unit.

CA20, 21, 40 & 50 Hi / Low level input switch
To ensure best possible performance from the amplifiers a switch have been installed to select between Hi and Low input. The drawings show where the switch is situated on the respective amplifier. When using High Level input: Set the switch to position "Hi / Level" When using Low level input: Set the switch to position "Low / Level" If the switch is set to wrong position, the amplifier still works, but the risk for disturbances or distortion increases.
Power Light / Protect light
Power (Green) Protect (Red)
The power light (green ) comes on when the amplifier is turned on. The protect light ( red ) comes on when the amplifier shuts down from overheating, or a short circuit ( speaker failure)
Crossovers
All DLS Classic amplifiers include high pass filter ( HPF ) and lowpass filters ( LPF). All filters are continously variable and all filters can be switched on and off.

Crossovers of CA40
The CA40 is a four channel amplifier. It is mostly used with a front system connected to channels C and D and a subwoofer connected to channel A + B. Please observe the proper settings of the channel A & B LPF multiplier switch and of the channel C & D HPF multiplier switch. The CA40 can also be used to feed a 2way front system with active crossovers between midbasses and tweeters. This is described in a speaker wiring and filter setting example on page 10. Channel A and B is equipped very much like the CA20 and CA21, however the LPF has a multiplier. Thus the frequency range of the LPF can be varied from 50 Hz 500 Hz in the x1 position or 500 Hz 5 kHz in the x10 position. This way we can use this amplifier to feed a 2-way system, where the midbasses are feed from 80 Hz 4 kHz. The tweeters connected to channel C and D , operate from 4 kHz upwards using the HPF in multiplier position x 10 150 Hz 5 kHz. The Lowpass filter is switched off.

Crossovers of CA50
The CA50 is a five channel amplifier. On channel A, B, C &D the filter confoguration is exactly the same as for CA40. Channel E is a subwoofer mono channel with a lowpass filter adjustable from 50 to 500 Hz. The subsonic filter has a fixed frequency of 25 Hz.

With the HPF-filter in OFF position the amplifier allows the speakers to play fullrange. If you for some reason want to limit the low bass reproduction switch on the HPF-filter. The typical setting is then around 25 40 Hz.

The HPF filter is here used as subsonic filter to take away the very deepest frequencies. [. . . ] if not, check wiring connections at amplifier and speakers.
2.
Test speaker connections
Make sure the speakers are connected right. Use the balance control on the head unit to make sure right channel is on right speaker etc. If speakers don´t play at all, one or both speaker wires may be disconnected.

Professional Tip: NOISE PROBLEMS
WHINING NOISE VARYING WITH ENGINE REVOLUTIONS: Do this: 1. Check quality of earth strap connection from battery negative terminal to chassis. [. . . ]
