EXTERNAL

Place terminal in a secure
position so that it won’t
accidentally contact the
negative battery post

Properly route power,
speaker and RCA

cables

through the vehicle.

Choose a mounting location
that will provide adequate air

ventilation. Mount the amplier to

a secure surface. Do not mount

the amplier upside down.

Attach the chassis ground

cable to the amplier

negative terminal. It is
important to make sure this
connection is very tight.

Bare metal

Attach the main power cable

to the amplier +12V. The

cable must run directly to
the battery and be properly
fused and be very tight.

Attach the remote turn on

wire to the amplier remote

output of the source unit.

Connect the RCA cables to

the INPUT connectors. The
OUTPUT can be used to

provide input for a second

amplier.

Connect the power cable to the

positive battery terminal. The

power cable must be fused

within 18 inches of the battery

terminal.

Re-connect the negative
battery terminal making sure it
is securely tightened.

Connect the speaker cables to
the speaker output connectors.
Follow the diagram below

that best ts your speaker
conguration.

The chassis ground connection

is critical to the performance

of the amplier. Choose a

location that is close to the

amplier. Completely scrape

away the paint and use a nut
and bolt if possible.

DO NOT USE AN EXISTING
FACTORY BOLT!

Many new and factory radios require a reset code when

disconnected from battery power. This is an anti-theft

feature. Before unplugging power, you must determine

if your radio/source unit requires a reset code.

Quick Start

Installation Guide

The input MODE switch will “sum” or

combine the right and left channel signals
in the MONO position to improve bass
performance. Select MONO only when the
amp is being used for subwoofers.

The XOVER Mode switch sets the type

of crossover that will be active. 4 channel
models will have two switches, one for each
set of channels.

The HPF(high pass lter) control will limit the
output below the selected frequency. This

is typically used to protect midrange and hi
frequency speakers from damage and to
allow a smooth transition from a subwoofer.

The LPF(low pass lter) control

will limit output above the selected

frequency. This is used to allow

a smooth transition to the higher
frequency speakers.

1. If possible, with the source unit off, conrm that the primary volume control is
turned down (counter clockwise).

2. Turn on the source unit (CD, or MP3 player). Re-conrm that the volume is

turned down. Make sure the source unit controls; balance, fader, bass and

treble are all set to center or “0” adjustment. Make sure that the green LED on
the end of the amplier is illuminated.

3. Play a clean musical selection of which you are very familiar. CD is preferred.
Do not use radio signals for level setting. Hit play and start turning the volume

of the source unit up.

4. Stop increasing the source unit volume when you reach 3/4 (about 75%) or until
you hear speakers begin to slightly start producing distortion.

5. Increase the amplier level (clockwise) until distortion is heard, then back
the level down (counter clockwise) until the distortion is eliminated. Small
adjustments may need to be made to balance the levels of multiple ampliers.

The Bass EQ control will increase the power
output at 45Hz for more pronounced bass.
Exercise caution when using this control.

Increase the level in small amounts until
distortion is noticed, then back off a little.

Some models include a bass

remote. Avoid adjusting the bass

remote while operating vehicle.
