Circuit Breakers and Fuses
External
Like all audio components, the Tarantula amplifier must be fused near the battery.
A 300 amp fuse or circuit breaker must be located within 18” of the battery
. This will prevent a fire in the
event of a shorted cable.
Internal
The Tarantula amplifier is fused with a 300 amp blade-type (ANC) fuse. In the event of a blown
power supply fuse, replace with the correct value fuse. Never replace the fuse with a higher
value than what is supplied. This may result in amplifier damage and will void the warranty!
Remote Turn-On
Connect the turn-on lead from the source unit to the ìRemoteî input on the amplifier. When +12
volts is received, the amplifier will turn on.
Signal Cable
Depending on your application, you may use either the DIN audio balanced signal cable or
standard RCA cables to drive your Tarantula amplifier.
Speaker Cable
The Tarantula will accept up to a 4 gauge speaker cable. Use high quality, flexible, multi-strand
cable for best performance and longevity.
