Controls and Functions � This plug connects the amplifier and the remote bass knob using the supplied cable. This control adjusts the amplifier's input sensitivity . The input sensitivity is variable from 200 Millivolts to 8 volts. T urning clockwise increases sensitivity . T urning counterclockwise decreases sensitivity . This knob is not a[...]

Controls and Functions � The LINE OUT allows you to build a multiple amplifier system without having to use splitter cords or Y -adapters to distribute the signal. Now it is simply a matter bringing one set of RCAs into the first amplifier , then using the line out RCA jacks as the feed to the next amplifier . By using the bass boost function, ba[...]

� Controls and Functions For use as a dedicated subwoofer channel, set the filter switch to the "LPF" (Low Pass Frequency). Adjust the variable crossover frequency with control knob as desired. The amplifier input circuit filters out everything above 50Hz ... 150Hz (dependant on the adjustment of the frequency control), so only the lowe[...]

Controls and Functions  These terminals are used to wire your subwoofer(s) to the amplifier . T o avoid unwanted ignition noise caused by ground loops, it is essential that the amplifier be grounded to a clean, bare, metal of the vehicle's chassis. This metal surface should be solid, strong and connected directly to the frame of the car . N[...]

Controls and Functions  The remote terminal needs to be wired to the car's stereo or source unit remote turn on wire. This amplifier is turned on remotely when the vehicle's stereo is turned on. NOTE: iF YOUR RADIO DOES NOT HA VE A +12 VOL T OUTPUT LEAD WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED ON, THE "REMOTE" TERMINAL ON THE AMPLIFIER CAN [...]

b. Are your components matched? The RMS power rating of your speakers must be equal or greater than the amplifier's. They also must be 1-8 Ohms impedance (this information is normally printed on the speaker magnet). c. Consider both the length of your leads, and routing when determining the mounting location. Pre-Amp input Jacks require a leng[...]

Positive (+) of the S LA VE amp goes to the Negative (-) of the sub 3. Connect the Negative (-) terminals of both amps together[...]

TURNING ON THE AMPLIFIER The amplifier automatically turns on a few seconds after you turn your vehicle's ignition switch to ACC or turn on your auto sound system (depending on how you have wired the system). The POWER indicator on the top of the amplifier illuminates when the amplifier is on. I mportant : Your amplifier requires 30 amps or mo[...]

Investigate the layout of your automobile thoroughly before drilling or cutting any holes. Take care when you work near the gas tanks, lines, hydraulic lines, and electrical wiring. Do not use the power amplifier unmounted. Attach the system securely to the automobile to prevent damage, particularly in the event of an accident. Do not mount the sys[...]
