Planning Your Installation
It is important that you take the time to read this manual and that you plan out your installation carefully. The following are some considerations that you must take into account when planning your installation.
Cooling Efficiency Considerations:
The outer shell of your JL Audio amplifier is designed to remove heat from the amplifier circuitry. For optimum cooling performance, this outer shell should be exposed to as large a volume of air as possible. Enclosing the amplifier in a small, poorly ventilated chamber can lead to excessive heat
of a fan. In normal applications,
Mounting the amplifier upside down is strongly discouraged.
Safety Considerations:
Your amplifier needs to be installed in a dry,
Stupid Mistakes to Avoid:
•Check before drilling any holes in your vessel to make sure that you will not be drilling through the hull, a fuel tank, fuel line, wiring harness or other vital vessel system.
•Do not run system wiring outside or underneath the vessel. This is an extremely dangerous practice which can result in severe damage to your vessel and person.
•Protect all system wires from sharp edges
(metal, fiberglass, etc.) by carefully routing them, tying them down and using grommets and loom where appropriate.
•Do not mount the amplifier in the engine compartment or in any other area that will expose the amplifier circuitry to the elements.
While this amplifier is specially designed for marine applications, it is not waterproof and it should not be mounted where it is likely to get wet.

Product Description
The M600/1 is a monoblock amplifier utilizing
JL Audio NexD™ high speed switching technology to deliver outstanding fidelity and efficiency.
The M600/1 can be operated with a wide variety of source units and system configurations.
Its frequency response is limited to the range below 500 Hz. It is not designed for driving midrange speakers or tweeters. Every aspect of its operation has been optimized for
Typical Installation Sequence
The following represents the sequence for a typical amplifier installation, using an aftermarket source unit. Additional steps and different procedures may be required in some applications. If you have any questions, please contact your authorized JL Audio dealer for assistance.
1) Disconnect the negative battery postconnection and secure the disconnected cable to prevent accidental
2) Run 4 AWG power wire from the battery location to the amplifier mounting location, taking care to route it in such a way that it will not be damaged and will not interfere with vessel operation. Use 4 AWG or larger power wire and a power distribution block if additional amplifiers are being installed with the M600/1.
3) Connect power wire to the positive batterypost. Fuse the wire with an appropriate fuse block (and connectors) within 18 inches (45 cm) wire length of the positive battery post.
This fuse is essential to protect the vessel. Do not install the fuse until the power wire has been securely connected to the amplifier.
4) Connect negative power wire to the negativebattery post. Use the same size power
wire as the wire connected to the “+12V”connection (minimum 4 AWG).
5) Run signal cables and remote
6) Run speaker cable from the subwoofer system(s) to the amplifier mounting location.
7) Securely mount the amplifier.
8) Connect the positive and negative powerwires to the amplifier. A fuse near the amplifier is not necessary if the M600/6 is the only device being run from the fused main power wire. If the fused main power wire is shared by the M600/6 and other amplifiers or devices, fuse each amplifier/device
within 12 inches (30 cm) of wire length, via a fused distribution block or multiple individual fuse
9) Connect the remote
to the amplifier.
10)Connect the input cables to the amplifier.
11)Connect the speaker cables to the amplifier.
12)Carefully review the amplifier’s control settings to make sure that they are set according to the needs of the system.
13)Install the power wire fuse (50A for a single M600/1) and reconnect the negative battery post terminal. Install the fuse (50A) near the amplifier (if applicable).
14)Turn on the source unit at a low level to
configured correctly. Resist the temptation to crank it up until you have verified the control settings.
15) Make necessary adjustments to the input sensitivity controls to obtain the right overall output and the desired balance in the system. See Appendix A (page 14) for the recommended input sensitivity setting method.
16)Enjoy the fruits of your labor with your favorite music.
Power Connections
Before installing the amplifier, disconnect the negative (ground) wire from the vessel’s battery. This will prevent accidental damage to the system, the vessel and your body during installation.
The M600/1’s “+12 VDC” and“Ground” connections are designed to accept 4 AWG power wire.4 AWG is the required wire size for this amplifier.
If you are installing the M600/1 with other amplifiers and wish to use a single main power wire, use 2 AWG or 1/0 AWG main power wire (depending on the overall current demands of all the amplifiers in the system). This 2 AWG or 1/0 AWG power wire should terminate into a fused distribution block mounted as close to
the amplifiers as possible (within 12 inches / 30cm of wire length). The fused output of the distribution block will connect to the M600/1 with 4 AWG power wire. JL Audio ECS fused distribution blocks are recommended
Note: Smaller AWG numbers mean bigger wire and
To connect the power wires to the amplifier, first back out the set screw on the top of the terminal block, using the supplied 2.5 mm hex wrench. Strip 1/2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from the end of each wire and insert the bare wire into the terminal block, seating it firmly so that no bare wire is exposed. While holding the wire in place, tighten the set screw firmly, taking care not to strip the head of the screw.
The ground connection should be made using the same gauge wire as the power connection.
Any wires run through barriers must be protected with a high quality rubber grommet to prevent damage to the insulation of the wire. Failure to do so may result in a dangerous short circuit.
Many vessels employ small (10 AWG - 6 AWG) wire to connect the alternator’s positive connection to the battery. To prevent voltage drops, this wire should be upgraded to 4 AWG when installing amplifier systems with main fuse ratings above 60A.
It is common for the alternator to be grounded through its chassis. If the alternator is not grounded through its chassis and instead employs a small (10 AWG - 6 AWG) wire to connect to ground, this wire should also be upgraded to 4 AWG when installing amplifier systems with main fuse ratings above 60A.
Fuse Requirements
It is absolutely vital that the main power wire(s) to the amplifier(s) in the system be fused within 18 inches (45 cm) of the positive battery post connection. The fuse value at each power wire should be high enough for all of the equipment being run from that power wire. If only the M600/1 is being run from that power wire, we recommend a 50A fuse be used.
If fusing the amplifier near its power connections (when more than one amp is being run from the main power wire), use a 50A fuse.

You may run a stereo or a mono signal into the inputs of the amplifier. The amplifier’s input section automatically sums stereo signals to mono for the internal amplifier section. The amplifier will operate with only one input connection (left or right), but will require an increase in input sensitivity to overcome the loss of signal. If a mono input signal is to be run, we recommend that you use a
Input Voltage Range:
The M600/1’s input section is designed to accept signal voltages from 100mV – 4V. This will accommodate all preamp level signals and many speaker level signals.
To use
If you find that the output cannot be reduced sufficiently with a direct speaker level signal applied to the amplifier, you may use a “line output converter” or voltage divider to reduce the signal level.
Input Sensitivity Controls
The control labeled “Input Sens.” can beused to match the source unit’s output voltage to the input stage the M600/1 for maximum clean output. Rotating the control clockwise will result in higher sensitivity (louder for a given input voltage). Rotating the control
To properly set the amplifier for maximum clean output, please refer to Appendix A (page 12) in this manual. After using this procedure,you can then adjust the “Input Sens.” levels downward if this is required to achieve the desired system balance.
Do not increase any “Input Sens.” setting for any channel(s) of any amplifier in the system beyond the maximum level established during the procedure outlined in Appendix A (page 12). Doing so will result in audible distortion and possible speaker damage.

Filter Controls
Most speakers are not designed to reproduce the full range of frequencies audible by the human ear. For this reason, most speaker systems are comprised of multiple speakers, each dedicated to reproducing a specific frequency range. Filters are used to select which frequency range is sent to each section of a speaker system. The division of frequency ranges to different speakers can be done with passive filters (coils and/or capacitors between the amplifier outputs and the speakers), which are acceptable and commonly used
for filtering between

If you would like to select the filter frequency with a higher level of precision, consult Appendix B (page 13) of this manual.
This chart gives you a more accurate frequency for each of the forty detented positions of the frequency selection control. This method can be very useful if the amplifier is mounted in
a location where you can’t see the front panel markings easily.

With ported enclosures and infinite baffle subwoofer systems, the use of the “Infrasonic Filter” is highly recommended to protect the speaker(s) from excessive excursion at inaudibly low frequencies.
With sealed enclosures, the use of the filter is less necessary, but can still help protect the speaker system from excessive excursion.
The “Infrasonic Filter”can be completely defeated by selecting the “Off” position on its switch. This bypasses all signal from flowing through the circuit.

SUBWOOFER OUTPUTS
The M600/1 is designed to deliver power into subwoofer loads equal to or greater than 2 ohms.
The M600/1’s subwoofer outputs are designed to accept 16 AWG - 8 AWG wire. To connect the subwoofer wires to the amplifier, first back out the set screws on the top of the terminal block, using the supplied 2.5 mm hex wrench. Strip 1/2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from the end of each wire and insert the bare wire into the terminal block, seating it firmly so that no bare wire is exposed. While holding the wire
in place, tighten the set screw firmly, taking care not to strip the head of the screw.
If you plan to use the “Preouts” to feed a stereo amplifier, you must connect a
stereo signal to the input of the amplifier. A mono signal into the amplifier will result in a mono signal out of the preamp output.
You will notice that there are two “+” positive connections and two
This is to facilitate multiple subwoofer wiring.
The two positive and two negative connections are connected in parallel inside the amplifier They are not stereo outputs. Connecting two subwoofers, each to one set of positive and negative terminals, will result in a parallel subwoofer connection. If only connecting one pair of subwoofer wires, it is not necessary to use both sets of connections.
Subwoofer loads below 2 ohms nominal are not recommended and may cause the amplifier
to initiate a protection mode which reduces power output.

“How do I properly set the input sensitivity on my amplifier?”
Please refer to Appendix A (page 12) to set the input sensitivity for maximum,
“My amplifier doesn’t turn on.”
Check the fuse, not just visually, but with a continuity meter. It is possible for a fuse to have poor internal connections that cannot be found by visual inspection. It is best to take the fuse out of the holder for testing. If no problem is found with the fuse, inspect the
Check the integrity of the connections made to each of the
“+12VDC”, “Ground”, and “Remote” terminals. Ensure that no wire insulation is pinched by the terminal set screw and that each connection is tight.
Check to make sure there is +12V at the“Remote” connection of the amplifier. In some cases, the
“I hear a repetitive ticking or popping sound coming out of the speaker(s).”
Check the speaker wires for a possible short, either between the positive and negative leads or between either speaker lead and the vessel’s electrical ground. If a short is present, you will experience distorted and/ or attenuated output. The“Status LED” will turn Amber (yellow) in this situation. It may be helpful to
disconnect the speaker wires from the amplifier and use a different set of wires connected to a test speaker.
Check the nominal load impedance to verify that each channel of the amplifier is driving a load equal to or greater than 2 ohms in stereo mode (4 ohms bridged).
“My amplifier’s output fluctuates when I tap on it or hit a bump.”
Check the connections to the amplifier. Make sure that the insulation for all wires has been stripped back far enough to allow a good contact area inside the terminal block.
Check the input connectors to ensure that they all are making good contact with the input jacks on the amplifier.
“My amplifier shuts off once in a while, usually at higher volumes.”
Check your voltage source and grounding point. The power supply of the M600/1 will operate with charging system voltages down to 10V. Shutdown problems at higher volume levels can occur when the charging system voltage (or remote
vessels employ small (10 AWG - 6 AWG) wire to ground the battery and to connect the alternator to the battery. To prevent voltage drops, these wires should be upgraded to 4 AWG when installing amplifier systems with main fuse ratings above 60A. Grounding problems are the leading cause of misdiagnosed amplifier “failures.”
“My amplifier turns on, but there is no output.”
Check the input signal using an AC voltmeter to measure thevoltage from the source unit while an appropriate lowfrequency test tone is played through the source unit (disconnect the input cables from the amplifier prior to this test). 50 Hz is a good choice. A steady, sufficient voltage (between 0.1 and
Check the output of the amplifier. Using the procedure explained in the previous check item (after plugging the input cables back into the amplifier) test for output at the speaker outputs of the amplifier. Remove the speaker wires from the amplifier while doing this to prevent unpleasant noise and possible speaker damage. Turn the volume up approximately halfway. 5V AC or more should be measured at the speaker outputs. This output level can vary greatly between amplifiers but it should not be in the millivolt range with the source unit at half volume. If you are reading sufficient voltage, check your speaker connections as explained below.
Check to ensure that the speaker wires are making a good connection with the metal inside the terminal block. The speaker wire connectors are designed to accept up to 8 AWG wire. Make sure to strip the wire to allow for a sufficient connection with the metal inside the terminal block.

Warranty is void if the product’s serial number has been removed or defaced.
Any applicable implied warranties are limited in duration to the period of the express warranty as provided herein beginning with the date of the original purchase at retail, and no warranties, whether express or implied, shall apply to this product thereafter.
