Wiring Instructions

-POWER CONNECTION
The battery terminal (BATT) must be connected directly to the positive terminal of the vehicle battery to
provide an adequate voltage source and minimize noise. Connecting the battery terminal lead to any other
point (such as the fuse block) will reduce the power output and may cause noise and distortion. Use only # I
2 gauge or thicker (smaller gauge #) wire for this lead and connect it to the terminal of the battery after all
other wiring is completed.
-GROUND CONNECTION
The ground terminal (GND) connection is also critical to the correct operation of the amplifier. Use a wire of
the same gauge as the power connection (# I 2 or thicker) and connect it between the ground
terminal(GND) of the amplifier and a metal part of the vehicle close to the mounting location. This wire
should be as short as possible and any paint or rust at the grounding point should be scraped away to
provide a clean metal surface to which the end of the ground wire can be screwed or bolted.
-REMOTE TURN-ON CONNECTION
The amplifier is turned on by applying + I ZV to the remote turn-on terminal (REM). The wire lead to this
terminal should be connected to the "Auto-Antenna" lead from the car stereo which will provide the + I 2V
only when the car stereo is turned on . lf the car stereo does not provide an "Auto-Antenna" lead, the
remote turn-on lead may be wired to an "Accessory" or "Radio" terminal in the car's fuse block. This will turn
the amplifier on and off with the ignition key, regardless of whether the car stereo is on or off. The remote
turn-on lead does not carry large currents. So # 20 gauge wire may be used for this application.
-SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
Depending on the type and number of speakers used with the amplifier wire them to the speaker terminals
as per the appropriate wiring diagram. For most applications # I8 gauge wire should be used for the
speaker leads but in no case thinner than # 20 gauge. For leads is excess of I0 feet #l6 gauge is
recommended. When wiring the speakers, pay careful attention to the polarity of the terminals on the
speakers and make certain they correspond to the polarity of the corresponding terminals on the amplifier.
Do not ground any speaker leads to the chassis of the vehicle.
