HIGH PERFORMANCE STEREO AMPLIFIER This power amplifier has been designed to provide high quality performance with a minimum of maintenance. However, it's performance will only be as good as the care and quality of components with which it is installed. We therefore advise that you read these instructions very carefully to familiarize yourself with the product and it's features.
PRECAUTIONS 1. Although this unit is designed with built-in self-protection circuits, there may be a possibility of damage if it is not wired correctly. Please follow the wiring instructions carefully for the type of system being used. +) terminal of the battery. Connect this wire only after having 2. The last lead to be connected is the wire to the positive (+ completed and checked all other connections to the amplifier. 3.
INSTALLATION DIAGRAM INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Select a mounting area where the amplifier will have sufficient air circulation for proper cooling. Inadequate air circulation will cause the temperature of the amplifier to rise and will trigger the thermal protection mode. SELF-TAPPING SCREW 2. Place the amplifier on the mounting surface and mark the locations of the four mounting holes as shown in the illustration. 3. Remove the amplifier and drill a 1/8" hole at each of the four locations.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS The power and speaker wire connections for this amplifier are made via screw tightened terminal blocks. Loosen the screw for the connection to be made and fully insert the wire (strip 1/2" of insulation from the end) into the respective screw on the side panel (crimp-on "U" terminals are provided to simplify wiring and we recommend their use.) Tighten the screw down to secure the wire. 1.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS 4. Speaker Connections Depending on the type and number of speakers used with the amplifier, wire them to the speaker terminals as per the appropriate wiring diagram. For most applications, #18 gauge wire should be used for the speaker leads but in no case thinner than #20 gauge. For leads in excess of 10 feet, #16 gauge is recommended.

OPERATION 6 5 200 1 4 3 2 Level (Gain) Control The amplifier is capable of operating from sources supplying a wide range of input levels. The Level control should initially be set to the mid-rotation position. If it is found that there is not enough output even when the volume control on the car stereo is at its maximum setting, adjust the Level control to increase the output from the system.
minimum setting, or the output level increases too fast with a small rotation of the volume control, adjust the Level control to decrease the output from the system. Once the correct setting is found, this control should not require any further adjustment. LPF Crossover Frequency Control This Control selects the crossover frequency when the Filter Selector is in the "LPF" setting.
