AMPLIFIER PREPARATION AND MOUNTING
(2018.5 Turbo S & 2019+ Models Continued)
STEP 2 – AMPLIFIER MOUNTING
Mount the MB Quart amplifier(s) on the dual amplifier
plate in the configuration shown in Figure 10.7. This
configuration is critical to make sure you can access
your fine-tune adjustments for level, low pass filter (LPF)
and bass boost.
STEP 3 – TRIAL FITTING THE DUAL AMP PLATE
With the amplifier(s) mounted to the plate, place it into position as shown in Figure 10-8. Be sure there is
free movement of the wiring harness with enough length to connect to the amplifier’s onboard connectors.
• if you have the Dynamix
®
ECU and/or OEM
amplifier bracket
- Loosely fit the remaining two (2)
10mm bolts to check the fit of the dual amp plate.
This is shown in Figure 10-8.
• If NO Dynamix
®
ECU or OEM amplifier bracket
- Use the two (2) T40 screws provided with the MB
Quart Stage 3 kit to check the fit of the dual amp
plate.
Connect the power and speaker wiring to the harness as
labeled. Do not zip-tie anything at this point as the dual
amp plate will not have its final reassembly until after the system has completed the steps in the INITIAL
TESTING and FINE TUNING sections.
STEP 4 – REMOVE DUAL AMP PLATE FROM ITS LOCATION AND FLIP OVER
With the amplifiers connected to the wiring harness, place a towel or blanket over the open hood area.
• If you have the Dynamix
®
ECU and/or OEM amplifier bracket
- Remove the first two (2) 10mm bolts.
Remove the dual amp plate and flip it over on a towel or blanket to avoid scratching the amplifier(s)
heatsink as shown in Figure 10-9. Next, remove the remaining two (2) 10mm bolts from the ECU or
OEM amplifier mount (if present) and place the ECU to the side as when initially disassembled on page
8.
• If NO Dynamix
®
ECU or OEM amplifier bracket
- Remove the (2) T40 metal screws for the amp plate.
Remove the dual amp plate and flip it over on a towel or blanket to avoid scratching the amplifier(s)
heatsink as shown in Figure 10-9.
This step will allow you to continue working on the other
parts of the installation and access other wiring until
you’re ready to power up the system, complete final
testing and finalize the reassembly.
