XPR82D-XPR84D INSTALLATION / OWNER'S MANUAL Mobile Power Amplifiers
INSTALLATION Preparation Please read entire manual before installation. Due to the technical nature of amplifiers, it is highly recommended that your amplifier is installed by a professional installer or an authorized dealer. Before You Start • Disconnect negative battery terminal.
INSTALLATION Connection Descriptions NOTE: Be sure to follow specific instructions included with your amplifier installation kit (not included with this amplifier). The information below should be used as a general guideline only. Power Wire (+12V) • Disconnect negative battery terminal before proceeding. Consult a qualified technician for instructions if you are unsure. • Plan wire routing before cutting any wires to length.

INSTALLATION Typical Wire Routing XPR82D Main Power Connections The illustrations on pages 6 and 7 demonstrate three different wiring options for each unit. Once desired configuration has been selected, connect the +12V, GND and REM wires accordingly. A suitable fuse MUST be installed on the +12V lead within 18" of the battery for protection of the vehicle’s electrical system.
INSTALLATION Typical Wire Routing XPR84D Fuse Rating When replacing fuses, make sure new fuse is the correct type and amperage. Using an incorrect fuse could damage the amplifier. XPR82D - 25A XPR84D - 25Ax2 Power/Ground Wire Size For optimum performance, use only the wire size listed below or larger. Make sure to use the same size power and ground wire.
INSTALLATION Amplifier Connections Speaker Connections Connect speaker wires observing polarity. The minimum impedance load for the amplifiers is 2 ohms stereo and 4 ohms bridged. Use of loads lower than these is not recommended and may cause amplifier damage. The amplifiers can be wired for stereo, bridged or stereo/ bridged simultaneous operation.
INSTALLATION Configuration/Setup Input level Control Crossover Mode The input level control (gain) is used to obtain the best possible match between the head unit audio output and the amplifier input. Begin by turning the input level control fully counterclockwise. Next, turn up the head unit volume control around 3/4 of the way up. Adjust the input level control clockwise until audible distortion is heard, then slightly counterclockwise to provide the best match. Repeat for all input level controls.
