Cunnessione di l'uscita di l'altoparlanti:
- Connect your subwoofer(s) to the "MONO OUTPUT" terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
- U amplifier supports mono operation and is stable down to 1 ohm.
Cunnessione d'entrata RCA:
- Connect the RCA input cables from your head unit's subwoofer output to the amplifier's "INPUT" RCA jacks.

3.3 Power-Up iniziale
After all connections are secure, reconnect the vehicle's battery. The power indicator LED on the amplifier's end panel should illuminate, indicating proper operation. If the protect LED illuminates, refer to the troubleshooting section.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Ajustà i cuntrolli
The BG-4000.1D amplifier features several adjustable controls to fine-tune your audio output:
- GAIN: Adjusts the input sensitivity to match the output of your head unit. Start with the gain at minimum and slowly increase until desired volume is achieved without distortion.
- LPF (Filtru Passa-Bassu): Controls the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. Typically set between 40Hz and 180Hz to ensure only low frequencies are sent to the subwoofer.
- SUBSONIC: Filters out extremely low frequencies that are inaudible and can damage subwoofers. Typically set between 10Hz and 40Hz.
- FASE: Adjusts the phase of the subwoofer output (0° or 180°) to optimize bass response with other speakers in the vehicle.
- BASS BOOST: Provides an adjustable bass enhancement (0dB to 12dB) at a specific frequency. Use sparingly to avoid distortion.
4.2 Wired Bass Remote
The included wired bass remote allows for convenient adjustment of the subwoofer output level from the driver's seat. Connect the remote to the dedicated port on the amppannellu di cuntrollu di u lifier.
4.3 Indicatori LED
- LED PWR (Power): S'illumina in verde quandu ampL'alimentatore hè acceso è funziona nurmalmente.
- PRT (Protect) LED: S'illumina rossu quandu u amplifier detects a fault (e.g., overheating, short circuit, low voltage). If this LED lights up, turn off the audio system and investigate the cause.
For optimal performance, refer to the detailed instructions in the full product manual for specific settings and tuning recommendations.
5. Mantenimentu
- Pulizia: Aduprate un pannu morbidu è seccu per pulizziari ampl'esternu di u lifizer. Ùn aduprate micca prudutti chimichi aggressivi o detergenti abrasivi.
- Ventilazione: Verificate periodicamente chì u amplifier's heat sink fins are free from dust and debris to ensure proper cooling.
- Cunnessioni: Ensure all power, ground, and speaker connections remain tight and free from corrosion.
