Amplifier Owner’s Manual
Z500.1
MONOBLOCK POWER AMPLIFIER
INPUT
Connect preamp signal cables from the head unit to these terminals.
CROSSOVER FREQUENCY
Controls the lowpass crossover point for the speaker outputs.
BASS BOOST
Variable bass boost from 0 to +18dB @ 45Hz.
REMOTE BASS LEVEL CONTROL (RBC)
This port is for connecting the remote subwoofer level control. This allows up to 20dB of volume adjustment. This is not a bass boost, it controls the level of the low pass signal.
NOTE: This control is not compatible with the Phoenix Gold LPL44 level control.
SENS
Used to reach maximum amplifier power with a wide variety of headunits.
SUBSONIC CROSSOVER FREQUENCY
Controls the highpass crossover point for the speaker outputs to eliminate extreme low frequencies.
OUTPUT
Provides a full range signal for an additional amplifier. There is no signal loss if using this output.

Z500.1
SPEAKE
+12V
This must be connected to the fused positive terminal (+12V) of the car’s battery. The fuse must be located within 18 inches of the battery.
REMOTE
This must be connected to switched +12V, usually a trigger wire coming from the head unit or ignition.
GROUND
This must be connected to the negative terminal of the car’s battery or bolted to a clean, unpainted part of the chassis of the vehicle.
REMOTE MONITORING DISPLAY (RMD)
Connect optional RMD Voltage Diplay to this port.
SPEAKER OUTPUTS
Used to connect the amplifier to speakers. Z500.1 minimum impedance is 2 ohms.
NOTE: Visible through the plexiglass cover, a single blue power LED is located in the lower corner of all Z amplifiers.
