Using the SP 4.900 With a Factory Radio
The built-in Universal Speakers Simulator (USS) on the high-level inputs lets the amp work with OEM head units that mute or shut down on speaker-load detection. Turn-on is automatic, from remote-in or from DC offset sensing on the speaker inputs, so a remote wire is not the only way to switch it on.
