Just showing how to wire it up as well as talking about different ways to use front and rear outputs.
Hope you like what you see

awesome quick response. Na I have a eqs-755 from clarion basically the same thing for the plug ins except mine says main when your soundstream says CD. Anyway my electronic knowledge only goes so far, but I'm trying to hook it up without a 4 channel amp for my door speakers and it's not going well. It turns on, but I have no EQ control over anything. I have RCA's to the Head unit Have a ground to bare metal in the vehicle, got the remote wire with the other remote wires to the factory harness and have the 12 volt to the factory harness. So I guess I have to have the other two RCA's going to an amp, maybe thats why it's not working. Any help is appreciated

[@BIGJURAY20]

By my knowledge with your unit you can either use rcas to an amplifier or the hi input which requires you to use your factory head units speaker output both left and right which allows the eq output side to take effect without the use of input rca. But, equalizers such as these are functional with amplifiers only

[@birdcall2422]

Alright, cool thanks for the info man! Ill try hooking it up that way. In the end I think I'm SOL and should just get a 4 channel amp anyway.

[@BIGJURAY20]

You can always get an inexpensive one just to help with fine tuning your system

[@zipg246]

I got this equalizer because I dont have a remote for my sub level so I was going to use this instead. If I'm only hooking up the sub to this how many rca cables do I need? Also no disrespect but I think you had some confusion in the blue wire connection. The blue and white wire is for the remote and the solid blue wire is if you have power antennas. I thought if your vehicle has neither u are supposed to just cap them off. The eq will turn off and on with your radio regardless through the red and yellow wires.

[@Fishing_with_Gilbert509]

Hey bro I need help I have a Blaupunkt CEBP870 7-Band Digital Equalizer and I have one channel amplifier and this is my stereo Model:7110GM need help how to install it I have all the wires on put can’t know where put the rear out front out because my amplifier is one channel please help thanks

[@BIGJURAY20]

How many amplifiers are you using the equalizer to tune?

[@BIGJURAY20]

Does your equalizer have a Front Rear And Subwoofer Output?

[@Fishing_with_Gilbert509]

@@BIGJURAY20 I only have one in it’s one channels 2000 watts

[@Fishing_with_Gilbert509]

@@BIGJURAY20 o yes it dose have that on equalizer

[@BIGJURAY20]

@@Fishing_with_Gilbert509 ok so what you'd have to do is run Rca from radios front or rear to Equalizer main input. From there you'll want to use the rca from Equalizers Subwoofer output to your amplifiers input. Be sure your radios settings are all set to 0 since you'll be using the equalizer to tune. Also be sure the equalizer is 0 on all bands or in the middle which is flat. Once your amplifiers gain and crossovers are set you can tune the rest from the equalizer

You still active man ? I'm trying to hook up my clarion eq and for some reason only the fader is working on it? Adjustments do not work. And some how when I pull out my midbass stage rca from my crossover it still plays sound. Any clue what might cause that? I followed the steps. Tomorrow I'm gonna pull out everything and try again. Wish me luck

[@adeiln]

heyo my preamp is on but I hear no sound I cheaked all my rca all are good eny tips

[@BIGJURAY20]

Only thing i can think about if u don't have any sound is maybe it's not in the right setting. Have u tried pressing the cd/aux button in.

[@adeiln]

It only has cd input no aux

[@BIGJURAY20]

Ok have u tried connecting the rcas to the back of the head unit to see if u get a signal??? You're gonna have to go through a process of elimination to find out what's causing the issue

[@adeiln]

Yes I did and I got a signal

[@adeiln]

So the deck output is good and my rca is good to could it be that the postive and negative touch in the preamp?
