INSTALLATION STEP 1
SELECTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT MODE
Channels 1 through 4 of the & 805 amplifiers have the ability to
operate in any one of the following modes:
Stereo Mono).= Use this mode for either stereo operation (left
and right channels) or for Mixed Mono operation.
Bridged Use this mode to get a bridged mono output while using only
the right channel input for 3 channel operation.

WIRING
POWER AND GROUND
To ensure output from your amplifier, use high quality,
loss power and ground cables and connections. The amplifiers will
accept up to 4 gauge power and ground cables. Determine from the chart below
the minimum gauge power and ground wire for your application.
up to up to 20’

CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND FUSES
Like all audio components, the amplifier must be fused near the battery.
A fuse or circuit breaker must be located within of the This will prevent
a fire in the event of a shorted cable. See the chart below to determine the correct
fuse value.
INTERNAL
The
amplifier is fused with two automotive-type fuses and the
is fused with a single Maxi-Fuse. In the event of blown power sup-
ply fuses, replace with the correct value fuse found in the chart below. Never
replace the fuse with a higher value than what is supplied. This may result in
amplifier damage and
void the warranty!

REMOTE TURN-ON
Connect the “Remote” line to the turn-on lead from the source unit. When
Volts is received, the amplifier will turn on.
SIGNAL CABLE
Use a high quality cable that will be easy to install and has minimal signal loss to
guarantee optimum performance.
SPEAKER CABLE
The amplifiers will accept up to 8 gauge speaker cable. Use a high
quality, flexible, multi-strand cable for best performance and longevity.
