Summary

Introduction to XETEC Gravity MK2 Series

Safety Precautions

Battery Disconnection Before Connection

Ensure the battery is disconnected before making any connections to the amplifier.

Mandatory Main Fuse Installation

Install a main fuse within the first 12" of the +12 V wire from the battery.

Minimum Speaker Impedance Requirement

Maintain a minimum speaker impedance of 2 Ohms for amplifier operation.

Avoid Using Defective Speakers

Do not use defective speakers or subwoofers to prevent amplifier damage.

Internal Fuse Protection Scope

Internal fuses protect the amplifier, not the battery or the car.

Health and Volume Caution

Special Features

Remote Bass Level Controller (BLC)

Adjust subwoofer level remotely from the dash using a VCA circuit.

Built-in Parametric Equalizer (EQ)

Corrects vehicle acoustics to enhance sound quality significantly.

Subsonic Filter Functionality

Filters very low frequencies to reduce cone excursion and save energy.

Phase Adjustment for Acoustic Alignment

Aligns subwoofer acoustically with front systems by compensating for delay.

Integrated Protection Circuits

Includes overload, short-circuit, DC, and overheat protection.

Installation Guidelines

Proper Amplifier Mounting

Mount amplifier properly and fix to car body, being cautious when drilling holes.

Signal Wire Placement to Avoid Noise

Install signal wires away from power cables to prevent hum and alternator noise.

Power and Ground Cable Diameter

Ensure +12 V and ground cables have sufficient diameter for optimal performance.

Connection Procedures

Disconnect Battery Before Connections

Always disconnect the vehicle's battery before making any connections.

Connect RCA Input Cables

Connect RCA cables from the radio/headunit to the amplifier inputs, avoiding power cables.

Connect Remote Bass Level Controller (BLC)

Connect the BLC using the provided telephone wire.

Connect Speaker Wires Correctly

Connect speaker wires to terminals with correct impedance and polarity.

Establish Proper Ground Connection

Ensure a good electrical contact for the ground connection to the chassis.

Connect +12 V Power Cable

Connect the +12 V cable to the battery's positive terminal, using an in-line fuse.

Connect Remote Wire

Connect the remote wire with the headunit turned off to prevent damage.

First Power-Up Sequence

Initial Control Adjustments

Adjust all level controls and BLC to minimum before powering on.

Radio and Volume Adjustment

Turn on the radio at low volume and then increase it gradually.

Speaker and Subwoofer Level Ratio

Adjust volume ratio between front/rear speakers and subwoofer.
