MOUNTING THE AMPLIFIER
MOUNTING LOCATION
To keep your STEALTH Series amplifier running at top performance, choosing the
proper location it of utmost importance. For this reason the amplifier should be
mounted in a location which will allow air to circulate freely. A clearance of at least
2-inches (5 cm) to all sides of the amplifier is necessary not only for proper cooling,
but also for gaining access to the inputs and other variable controls. Be sure that
the power and signal cable connections can enter and leave the amplifier in a
straight line to avoid the risk of kinked wires causing a malfunction.
Your STEALTH Series amplifier comes with mounting feet that need to be attached
to the amplifier prior to installation. Once the feet are in place, use the amplifier as
a template and mark the four screw locations. Use caution to make sure there are
no objects behind the installation surface that may become damaged during
drilling. The amplifier should be protected from exposure to moisture and direct
sunlight. The best places to mount your amplifier are: The floor of the trunk, under
the driver’s seat, or on the back of the rear seat. For alternate installation locations.
