PLAN OF ATTACK
Before you proceed to install this EMPHASER amplifier, it is recommended to map out the complete
audio system and the respective wiring required. Consider all additional electrical requirements and
accessories, such as power cables, interconnect cables etc., but also a safe mounting, sufficient venti-
lation and accessability of the fuses and the side panel controls.
Please note that - because of possible interference problems with the existing car electrics and elec-
tronics - especially the routing of the signal cables and the chassis ground connection will have a pro-
found impact on a trouble-free operation of the amplifier.
MOUNTING LOCATION
The mounting location should be carefully selected and in the interest of passive driver and passenger
safety, the amplifier must be securely mounted. Any mounting position – preferably in the trunk com-
partment – that allows sufficient cooling and solid mounting is okay.
Make sure there is no wiring harness, fuel tank etc. behind or below the mounting surface, that may
be damaged by the drilling of the holes for the amplifier mounting screws. After installation, there
should be a clearance of at least 5cm on all sides including the top of the amplifier heatsink. Make
sure the unit is not exposed to direct sunlight, humidity, water, oil or spill of other fluids that may enter
the amplifier.
