MOUNTING THE BAZOOKA ENGLISH Figure 1 Top Logo should face up 1. With the topside of the buckle facing up (see figure 1), lace the strap through the mounting base as illustrated in figure 2 Figure 2 Figure 3 2. After the strap is completely laced through the mounting base, make a loop with the strap, where it runs across the middle of the base as illustrated in figure 3. This loop is necessary to access the two mounting holes in the base.

*Not applicable to the TA850C & BTA850FH TA850C & BTA850FH are 2 Ohm products
ENGLISH Low-Level Inputs: If your source unit only has low-level RCA phono jack output, use only the low-level inputs of the Amplified Bazooka. Connect the low-level RCA phono jack inputs of the Amplified Bazooka subwoofer to the source with a shielded RCA patch cord. To avoid possible noise problems, be sure to run the patch cord away from all power wires and factory wire harnesses.
OPTION ONE: When you are using this option with all amplified Bass Tubes® models: For the most versatility the Orange Remote Turn On Wire should be connected to the source unit's "Accessory", "Auto-Antenna" or "Remote" lead -- any of which will supply 12 Volts positive when the source is turned on.
ENGLISH TROUBLESHOOTING Am I In Phase? If your inputs are out of phase and you turn the balance control of your radio all the way to one side, right or left, the bass output from the Bazooka® will increase. When you bring the balance control back to the center position the bass level will drop. This confirms that one of your input channels is wired out of phase with the other.
PHASE CORRECTING PROCEDURE Disconnect all but one Bazooka® from your system. Be sure that any loose wire connections are insulated to avoid the chance of short-circuiting any of the electronic equipment. Listen to the system and take note of the level of the Bass Response. Connect the next Bazooka® and compare the level of the combined output to that of the single unit. If the Bass Response increases, the Phasing is correct and you can repeat this process on the next Bazooka.
