INSTALLATION
GUIDELINES
1.Ensure the +12V lead is disconnected
from the battery before you connect any
new equipment.
2.Ensure the mounting location will not
interfere with the gas tank or electrical
wiring.
3.Ensure the Amplier is securely fastened
to the vessel to prevent injury in the
event of an accident.
4.Ensure all wiring is protected to avoid
pinching or crushing which could result
in damage to the audio system.
5.Ensure the mounting location has
sufcient air ow around the amplier. If
the amplier is mounted in an enclosed
space a 3” fan with ducting should be
used to aid in air ow.
6.Ensure you use the recommended gauge
wire/cable for all amplier connections.
7.Note: we do not recommend mounting
your amplier in close proximity to other
bridge-mounted equipment critical to
safe navigation of your vessel, in close
proximity to receiving antennas, or
near radio-communications equipment
mounted on your vessel.
+12V CONNECTION
FUSION ampliers should be connected
directly to the +12V battery terminal via a
4 gauge cable with an inline fuse or circuit
breaker as close to the battery as possible.
GROUND CONNECTION
Connect directly to the vessel’s earth system
via a 4 gauge cable. NOTE: This is the rst wire
to connect up during the installation.
REMOTE TURN-ON CONNECTION
This connection turns the amplier on & should
be connected to the remote turn on wire from
the Head Unit. If one is not available a switched
12v source must be used.
WIRING
Ensure the audio system is turned off before
making any connections to the amplier,
speakers or source unit, failure to do so could
result in permanent damage to the audio
system.
When wiring the FUSION amplier ensure
that the cable is protected from sharp objects
and always use rubber grommets when wiring
through metal panels.
Ensure all terminals and connections are
protected from the vessel chassis and from
each other as failure to do so could result in
permanent damage to the audio system.

RCA INPUTS
Choose the correct length RCA cable & run them to the RCA outputs of the source/head unit,
avoiding running beside other looms & or power cable.
LEVEL CONTROL
This control is used to match the input level of the amplier to the output level of the head unit.
We recommend the following method. NOTE: Remove screws and the top cover of amplier to
access controls.
1.Turn the amplier level to zero
2.Turn the volume of the head unit to 3/4
and the tone settings to zero
3.Adjust the level control until the desired
maximum volume is achieved without
distortion.
4.Failure to follow these steps may cause
permanent damage to the audio system.

6. POWER AND STATUS LED’S:
This displays “green” if the amplier has been correctly
powered up and ‘red’ if any faults are present.
7. FUSES:
Please ensure the correct type of fuse is tted. For SGDA51600 2 x 40A fuses.
8. +12V CONNECTION:
Connect directly to the vessel battery positive (+)
terminal via a 4 gauge cable, with an inline fuse or circuit
breaker at the battery end. NOTE: This is the last wire
to connect up during installation. Damage could result
if this is not done.
9. REMOTE TURN-ON CONNECTION:
This terminal is for turning the amplier on & off. The
remote input requires a switched positive (+12V) to
power ‘ON’ the amplier. This can usually be found on
the rear of the head unit in the form of a remote output.
10. GROUND CONNECTION:
Connect directly to the vessel’s earth system via a 4
gauge cable. NOTE: This is the rst wire to connect up
during the installation.
11. SUBWOOFER LP FILTER FREQUENCY:
This sets the crossover frequency point for the subwoofer
channels’ low pass lter between 32Hz and 320Hz.
12. ZONE 2 LEVEL:
This allows level adjustment of the zone 2 input signal.
Use this control to directly match the head unit to the
amplier. To set this control correctly, turn the amplier
level to MIN and the head unit to 3/4 volume, with
the tone settings on zero, then slowly turn up the level
control towards the MAX end of the control. NOTE: If the
sound becomes distorted, turn this control down.
13. ZONE 1 LEVEL:
This allows level adjustment of the zone 1 input signal.
Use this control to directly match the head unit to the
amplier. To set this control correctly, turn the amplier
level to MIN and the head unit to 3/4 volume, with the
tone settingson zero, then slowly turn up the level control
towards the MAX end of the control. NOTE: If the sound
becomes distorted, turn this control down.
14. FUSION LOW FREQUENCY CONTROL:
The FUSION Low Frequency Control (F.L.F.C.) is a dual
stage control interface. The combination of a Subsonic
lter & a Bass Boost control allows precise shaping of
the audio signal for your subwoofer(s). The Subsonic
lter is essentially a high-pass crossover which blocks
the frequency signal from 10Hz - 80Hz. This signal often
contains no music & its removal will improve subwoofer
control. The Bass Boost is a variable control to increase
the level at 45Hz from 0 - +12dB of gain. Adjust these
controls with extreme care.

15. SUBWOOFER AUDIO SOURCE:
This switch selects the audio source for the subwoofer
channel. Audio can be sourced from the SUB input RCA
connectors or from the Zone 1 & Zone 2 input RCA
connectors.
16. SUBWOOFER LEVEL:
This allows level adjustment of the subwoofer input
signal. Use this control to directly match the head unit
to the amplier. To set this control correctly, turn the
amplier level to MIN & the head unit to 3/4 volume,
with the tone settings on zero, then slowly turn up the
level control towards the MAX end of the control. NOTE:
If the sound becomes distorted, turn this control down.
17. ZONE 2 FILTER FREQUENCY:
This sets the crossover frequency point for the zone
2 lter between 32Hz and 320Hz. NOTE: Failure to
correctly set could result in speaker damage.
18. ZONE 2 FILTER SELECTION:
This switch selects the type of lter used for the zone 2
audio signal. Either Low Pass, High Pass or Full Range can
be selected. The Low Pass lter is designed to lter out
all mid to high frequencies that only full range speakers
should produce. The High Pass lter is designed to lter
out all low frequencies that only subwoofers should
produce. Full Range allows all frquencies.
19. ZONE 1 FILTER SELECTION:
This switch selects the type of lter used for the zone 1
audio signal. Either Low Pass, High Pass or Full Range can
be selected. The Low Pass lter is designed to lter out
all mid to high frequencies that only full range speakers
should produce. The High Pass lter is designed to lter
out all low frequencies that only subwoofers should
produce. Full Range allows all frquencies.
20. ZONE 1 FILTER FREQUENCY:
This sets the crossover frequency point for the zone
1 lter between 32Hz and 320Hz. NOTE: Failure to
correctly set could result in speaker damage.
