HIFONICS BRUTUS HIGH PERFORMANCE AMPLIFIERS The BRUTUS BRZ Series products have been designed to a very high level of performance, with features unavailable in any other product. All of the amplifiers have variable crossovers built in, with added touches such as subsonic filter, bass equalization and an HFR-3 remote control module that allows overall Level control from reach of the drivers seat.
GENERAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE System Design The success of any car stereo system relies on several factors, such as the system design, execution of the installation, and system setup. Please remember that any system is only as good as its weakest link. Please remember that higher power systems are not necessarily useful purely for high sound pressure levels, but also to establish a headroom capability, to reproduce musical peaks cleanly without distortion.

BRZ1200.1D MONO AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS Basic application Interconnect cable checklist: - Connect the line inputs to a Radio/CD RCA outputs or line output of the full range primary amplifier with good quality RCA cables. A “Y” adapter may be needed as shown in the diagram. - Use at least 16 gauge speaker wiring. These amplifiers have dual speaker terminals, simplifying the hookup of multiple speakers. The 2 positives are the same and the 2 negatives are the same.

BRZ2100.1D / BRZ2400.1D MONO AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS Basic application SINGLE AMP INSTALLATION PROCEDURE: 1. Connect the amp LINE INPUTS to the Radio/CD player full range or mono line out puts with good quality RCA interconnect cables. 2. Plug in the HFR-3 remote module into the amp REMOTE INPUT jack. 3. Route a 0 gauge power cables directly to the vehicle battery with an in-line fuse. 4. Connect a 0 gauge ground cables directly to chassis ground with in 36” of the amp.
SETTING UP SYSTEMS AFTER INSTALLATION FOR BEST PERFORMANCE General: At this point you are ready to get more specific on the settings for your amplifier. Subsonic: This setting acts as a low frequency cut off for your system bass reproduction. The point that you set it at cuts off any frequencies from reproduction beyond this point. The 12 o’clock position is a great starting point.
TROUBLESHOOTING A SYSTEM The key to finding the problem in a misbehaving sound system is to isolate parts of that system in a logical fashion to track down the fault. Description of the Diagnostic system built into all HIFONICS amplifiers The diagnostic system will shut down the amplifier, until reset by turning the head unit off, and back on. This state of affairs will be indicated by the front panel PROTECT LED lighting up under the following conditions: 1 - A sort circuit on the loudspeaker leads.
