Amplifier Mounting Procedures

Safety Precautions Before Mounting

Disconnect battery and fuse before wiring; ensure secure mounting away from hazards.

Installation Site Selection

Choose a location with proper ventilation, clear of wiring harnesses and fuel tanks.

Mounting and Grounding Guidelines

Use the unit as a template for pilot holes; ensure solid ground and avoid heatsink contact with the vehicle.

Wire Routing Best Practices

Main Power Wire Installation

Connect +12V and ground wires securely, using a main fuse within 30cm of the battery.

Signal and Remote Wire Routing

Route RCA and remote wires separately from power cables, connecting them to the head-unit and amplifier.

Loudspeaker Wire Connection

Connect speaker wires to terminals, ensuring correct polarity and checking LED indicators post-installation.

Crossover Adjustments and Settings

Selecting the Operation Mode

Choose HIGHPASS, BANDPASS, or FULL(range) based on speaker system configuration.

High Pass Crossover Frequency

Set HPF between 50-150Hz for satellite speakers to manage bass frequencies.

Low Pass Crossover Frequency

Adjust LPF (BPF mode) between 60-90Hz for subwoofers and set subsonic filter to lowest.

Subsonic/High Pass Crossover Adjustment

Utilize the HPF potentiometer for subsonic highpass frequency in BANDPASS mode.

Input Level Adjustment Procedure

Set tone controls to neutral, then adjust GAIN to match head-unit output for optimal dynamics.
