Default Equalizer install help? Power Connections.....

Ok well I just got an EQ for my birthday yesterday from one of my friends.... but I have no idea how to hook it up. The instructions it came with are terrible.

Anyhow, on the rear of the EQ it has the power connections. GROUND | B+ | REMOTE . I know what ground is and I can guess at what remote is, but I have no clue what in the hell "B+" is??!?! I can't get the bloddy thing to turn on.

Also if you can let me know if i'm hooking this up in the right order:

Headunit RCA connects to EQ
EQ RCA Connects to Amplifier for Sub

I'm kinda lost any input would be great. Thanks!

B+ is battery positive... in other words, power.

Normally, you wouldn't use an EQ for a sub amp. i guess if it has a low pass crossover built in, you could use it.

Your wiring is correct.
