Continuous exposure to high volumes of sound may cause permanent hearing loss.
High powered auto sound systems are capable of producing sounds well over 130
dB. Even short periods of play at high volume levels can impair your ability to hear
necessary traffic sounds and may constitute a hazard. Please use common sense
and practice SAFE LISTENING !

Am I In Phase?

If your inputs are out of phase and you turn the balance control of your radio all the
way to one side, right or left, the bass output from the Bazooka will increase.  When
you bring the balance control back to the center position the bass level will drop.
This confirms that one of your input channels is wired out of phase with the other.
To correct this situation, simply reverse the connections on one of the two input channels.
When the wiring is in correct electrical phase, the level of bass output will be greatest
when the balance control of the radio is set to the center position.

LOW-LEVEL INPUT:

If your source unit only has low-level RCA phono jack output, use only the low-level
inputs of the Amplified Bazooka. 

Connect the low-level RCA phono jack inputs of the Amplified Bazooka to the source
with a shielded RCA patch cord. To avoid possible noise problems, be sure to run
the patch cord away from all power wires and factory wire harnesses. 

When using the low-level inputs DO NOT make any connections to the Green and
Gray high-level input wires of the Amplified Bazooka and make sure these wires are
insulated to avoid the possibility of a short circuit.

OPTIONAL HIGH LEVEL OUTPUT

13

The Amplified Bazooka has provisions for high level output to a second subwoofer. If you want
to use this feature, you can purchase a Bazooka slave unit from your authorized SAS dealer.

Be sure to use a slave unit that is the same size as your amplified unit. This is necessary
because different size woofers have different efficiencies. These efficiency differences result
in the two woofers playing at different volume levels, making it difficult to adjust the system
to the desired sonic quality.

Locate the BROWN and the YELLOW wires on the 14-pin Molex plug, connect the
BROWN wire to the RED terminal of the slave unit, and the YELLOW wire to the BLACK
terminal of the slave unit.

The Amplified Bazooka is now operating under a 2 ohm load and delivering a total
output of 120 watts of power.
