If the Clarion has a floating ground output, i.e. if you are warned not to connect any speaker lead to auto body ground, then you need an adaptor to eliminate a short to ground through the input section of the booster. For an impeadence/voltage mismatch your only option is again an adaptor between the two units. If you don't use the adaptor, the short to ground will fry the output stages of the reciever. If you just have a mismatch, the sound quality and the volume will suffer plus the potential is there to roast the input on the booster. David Swank II University of Oklahoma ctvax!uokvax!uok!dswankii
