POWER CONNECTIONS
The DEXON Series amplifiers are capable of delivering extremely high power levels, and require a heavy-duty and reliable connection to the vehicle's electrical system in
order to perform optimally. Please adhere to the following instructions carefully:
Ground Connection
Connect the amplifier's Ground(GND) terminal to a solid point on the vehicle's metal chassis, as close to the amplifier as possible. Refer to the chart below to determine
minimum wire-gauge size. Scrape away any paint from this location; use a star-type lock washer to secure the connection.
Connect a wire (see chart at right for appropriate gauge) directly to the vehicle's positive battery terminal, and install an appropriate fuse holder with in 18" of the battery
terminal. Do not install the fuse at this time. Route the wire to the amplifier's location, and connect it to the amplifier's Positive (BATT+) terminal. Be sure to use appropriate
grommets whenever routing wires through the firewall or other sheet metal. Failure to adequately protect the positive wire from potential damage may result in a vehicle
fire. When you are done routing and connecting this wire, you may install the fuse at the battery.
Connect the amplifier's Remote (REM) terminal to the source unit's Remote Turn On lead using a minimum of 18-gauge wire.
Refer to the application guides on the pages that follow. Speaker connections should be made using a minimum of 12-gauge wire.
