SPEAKER WIRING AND CONFIGURATIONS
Speaker Load
Keep in mind your PowerBass Autosound Class D amp is a high power amplifier and not a high current amplifier.
In other words this amplifier requires a minimum impendance of 1-Ohm mono to operate trouble
free.
Lower impedance will send the amplifier into protection and possibly damage the electronics inside.
Subwoofer Wiring
Choose the correct speaker wire for your application. We recommend a minimum of 16 gauge wire. Route
these using the same precautions as you did when you ran the power cable. Terminate these wires at the
subwoofer end using insulated speaker terminals (not supplied) or by soldering the connection to the sub-
woofer. Be certain to maintain correct polarity throughout the system. Make sure the subwoofer connections
are positive-to-positive and negative-to-negative. Most speaker wire has some indicator (color code, ribbing,
or printing) on one of the two wires to help you distinguish the positive (+) and negative (-) leads.
At the amplifier end, insert the speaker wires into the properly marked terminals. Use a Phillips screw driver to
loosen the speaker terminals on the amplifier. Make certain that no bare wire ends touch each other. Such contact
could result in an electrical short and cause the amplifier to turn off (short circuit protection) or malfunction.
DO NOT attempt to “bridge” the speaker outputs of this amplifier with the speaker outputs of a second amplifier.
NOTE:
It is highly recommended that a hand screw driver and NOT a power drill is used
to tighten the screws on the terminal blocks. This will prevent stripping or other possible
damage to the amplifier.
