Introduction Class-D Amplifier
Due to their state- of- the- art technology and high efficiency, these Class-D mono amplifiers help your system to provide an impressive
sound experience.
The digital circuit technology of the power supply and the signal processing allows achieving maximum performance levels from the
provided power. Due to the different filters and circuits a very high power output is achieved, therefore these amplifiers are made for low
frequency information (Subwoofer). They can not be used for high- and midrange speakers.
The link mode enables to use to full power of two amplifiers for one speaker. This is first of all advantageous for a really powerful and lively
music playback.
Tools and materials you need
• Screwdriver
• Electric drill, 3 mm / 0.12” carbide drill bit
• Mounting screws
• Power wire min. 35 mm² / 2 AWG
• Ground wire min. 35 mm² / 2 AWG
•
Speaker wire min. 2 x 4 mm² / 11 AWG
Caution!
•
As a precaution it is advisable to disconnect the vehicle’s battery before making connection
to the +12 Volts supply wiring (see owner’s manual of your car for further information).
•
Please use great caution drilling your trunk. Your gas tank and brake lines can be damaged by puncturing with your drill bit –
this could cause damage or failure of your cars operating systems.
•
Never pass wires over sharp angles. It is recommended to buffer the power supply of the amplifier with an additional battery
to guarantee a stable operation voltage.
WARNING !
High powered audio systems in a vehicle are capable of generating "Live Concert" levels of sound pressure. Continued exposure to
excessively high volume sound levels may cause hearing loss or damage. Also, operation of a motor vehicle while listening to audio
equipment at high volume levels may impair your ability to hear
external sounds such as; horns, warning signals, or emergency vehicles, thus constituting to a potential traffic
hazard. In the interest of safety, Consumer Electronics recommends listening at lower volume levels while driving.
