4.2 Connessioni Wiring

Before making any connections, disconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.

1. Cunnessione di putenza (+12V): Connect a heavy gauge power cable (not included) from the vehicle's positive battery terminal to the +12V terminal on the amplifier. Ensure an appropriate fuse holder is installed within 18 inches of the battery.
2. Cunnessione in terra (GND): Connect a heavy gauge ground cable (not included) from the GND terminal on the amplifier to a clean, unpainted metal surface on the vehicle's chassis. The ground point should be as short as possible.
3. Accensione à distanza (REM): Connect a remote turn-on wire (not included) from your head unit's remote output to the REM terminal on the amplificatore. Stu filu signaleghja u amplificatore per accende è spegne cù a vostra unità principale.
4. Output Speaker: Connect your subwoofer(s) to the speaker output terminals. This is a 1-channel monoblock amplifier, designed for a single subwoofer or multiple subwoofers wired to a 1 Ohm stable load. Refer to your subwoofer's specifications for proper wiring configurations.
5. RCA Input (INPUT): Connect RCA cables from your head unit's subwoofer output to the RCA input jacks on the amppiù vivu. U amplifier supports low-level (RCA) inputs.
6. Manetta di Bass Remote: Connect the included remote bass knob to the 'REMOTE' port on the amplificatore. Questu permette una regulazione conveniente di u livellu di i bassi da u sedile di u cunduttore.

5. Operating Instructions

Una volta installatu, u amplifier can be configured for optimal audio performance using its various controls.

5.1 Gain Control (GAIN)

The GAIN control adjusts the input sensitivity of the amplifier. Start with the gain set to minimum (MIN) and slowly increase it until the desired volume is achieved without distortion. This should be matched to the output voltage di a vostra unità principale.

5.2 Filtru passa-bassu (LPF)

The LPF control allows you to set the upper frequency limit for the amplifier's output, typically ranging from 40Hz to 250Hz. This ensures that only low frequencies are sent to your subwoofer, preventing it from playing higher frequencies it's not designed for.

5.3 Subsonic Filter (SONIC)

The SUB SONIC filter removes extremely low frequencies (below 15Hz-50Hz) that are inaudible but can cause your subwoofer to over-excurt and waste power. Adjust this to protect your subwoofer and improve sound quality.

5.4 Bass Boost (BASS BOOST)

The BASS BOOST control provides an adjustable boost to low frequencies, typically from 0dB to 12dB. Use this feature to enhance the bass impact according to your preference. Use sparingly to avoid distortion or damage to speakers.

5.5 Phase Shift (PHASE)

The PHASE switch (0° or 180°) helps to align the phase of the subwoofer's output with the rest of your car audio system. Experiment with both settings to find the one that provides the most coherent and impactful bass response.

5.6 Manopola di Bassu à Distanza

The remote bass knob provides convenient, real-time adjustment of the subwoofer's output level from your driving position. This allows for quick adjustments without needing to access the amplifier direttamente.

6. Mantenimentu
