12. REMOTE Gain (RJ45 Jack)
This is the connector port for the Remote Gain Control. Now the amplifiers secondary gain circuit can be
adjusted from the driver’s seat.
13. SPEAKER Output Terminals
As shown in the wiring diagrams, be sure to observe speaker polarity through the system and speaker imped-
ance. This specially tooled terminal is designed to accommodate up to 10 gauge speaker wire.
14. FUSES
For convenience most PowerBass AutoSound amplifiers utilize common automotive ATC type fuses. For con-
tinued protection in the event that a fuse blows, replace the fuse only with the same value. CAUTION: These
power fuses on the amplifier chassis are for protecting the amp against overdrive. To protect the vehicles
electrical system, an additional fuse should be used within 18-inches of the battery on the 12V+ cable.
ASA 1000.1Dx
40A x 3
FUSE-IMPORTANT
The ASA 1500.1D does NOT come with any internal fusing! Due to the current demands a typical chassis
mounted fuse is not practical. We recommend that you install the correct size fuse/holder combination to the
main power cable within 12-inches of the battery. This will protect your vehicle from fire damage due to a
short circuit to the chassis or vehicle body.
For each ASA 1500.1D amplifier installed, use one 150A ANL type fuse (not included).
15. BATT+ (Power Input Terminal)
This terminal is the main power input for the amplifier and must be connected directly to the positive (+) termi-
nal of the car battery. (see Power Cable Selection Chart for recommended wire gauge for each model).
16. REM (Remote Input Terminal)
All PowerBass AutoSound amplifiers can be turned on by applying 12 volts to this terminal. This can be found
on the rear of the source unit in the form of an electric antenna output, or a remote output. If this is not avail-
able you can wire to the ACC position on the key. An 18 gauge wire is sufficient to run the REMOTE.
17. GND (Ground Input Terminal)
A good quality ground is required for your PowerBass AutoSound D Class amplifier to operate at peak per-
formance. A short length of cable the same gauge as your power cable should be used to attach the ground
terminal directly to the chassis of the vehicle. Make sure that all of the paint is sanded or scraped away to
ensure a quality ground connection
