HABIT accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage resulting from the
use/misuse of this product or installation.
To get the very best performance from your BASS HABIT amplifier we recommend that
installation be intrusted to a qualified installer. Although these instructions explain how to
install a BASS HABIT amplifier in general, they do not show specific installation methods that
may be required for your particular vehicle. If you do not have the necessary tools or experien-
ce, do not attempt the installations yourself. If any uncertainty please ask your local Bass Habit
dealer about a professional installation.

INSTALLATION
Turn off the audio system and other electronic devices before you start. Disconnect the
negative (-) lead from your vehicle’s battery.
Choose a mounting location in an area where the amplifier will not be damaged, and where the
amplifier is not covered up.
Mount the amplifier so that it remains dry - never mount an amplifier outside the vehicle or in
the engine compartment.
Amplifier cooling is essential for proper amplifier operation. If the amplifier is to be installed in
an enclosed space, make sure there is sufficient air circulation for the amplifier to cool itself.
When mounting the amplifier under a seat, ensure that it is clear of all moving parts and does
not affect the seat functionality.
Check clearances on both sides of a planned mounting surface before drilling any holes or
fixing any screws. Remember that the screws can extend behind the surface.
At the installation area, locate and take note of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum lines
and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution when cutting or drilling in and around these areas.
Before drilling or cutting any holes, use a utility knife to remove unwanted fabric or vinyl to
keep material from snagging in a drill bit.
When routing cables, keep input-signal cables away from power cables and speaker wires.
When making connections, make certain ale cables are secure and properly insulated.
Make sure that the amplifier is mounted securely using nuts and bolts or the supplied
mounting screws.

POWER CONNECTIONS (FIG 1)
To get the very best performance out of your Bass Habit amplifier, carefully follow the
instructions below:
Ground Connection (GND):
Connect the amplifier Ground (GND) terminal to a solid point on the vehicles metal chassis, as
close to the amplifier as possible.
Scrape away any paint from this location; use a star-type lock washer to secure the connection.
Ground cable minimum size (100% Oxygen Free Copper cable):
PP65.4 min. 8 awg/ 10mm2
Remote Connection (REM):
Connect the amplifier Remote (REM) terminal to the source unit remote turn on lead using a
minimum of 0.75mm2/18-gauge wire.
If your source unit does not have a remote signal output, connect the amplifier (REM) terminal
through a power switch button which can provide a +12V signal.
Power Connection (+12V):
Connect the 12V power supply cable after all other leads have been connected and secured.
Make sure the power supply cable is secured with a fuse 20-30cm from the positive 12V
battery terminal.
Power cable minimum size (100% Oxygen Free Copper cable):
PP65.4 min. 8 awg/ 10mm2

SETTINGS
Bass Habit PP65.4 is a Class A/B amplifier and can be used for all type of speakers in the range
between 20Hz-20kHz.
While listening to music, adjust the gain/crossovers/bass boost for the least perceived
distortion from the speakers.
Line Inputs (LINE IN)
Connect the line outputs from your source unit to the line inputs L and R on the amplifier using
an RCA signal cable.
Input level control (GAIN):
GAIN control adjusts the input level between 0,2V- 6 V.
Tips for adjusting the GAIN control correctly:
- Initially turn the GAIN control to minimum (counter clockwise) and turn of all EQ settings and
filter on the source unit and the amplifier..
- On the source unit, set the volume control to 3/4 of maximum volume.
- Slowly increase the GAIN control until you hear slight distortion in the speaker/speakers,
then reduce the GAIN slightly until distortion is no longer heard.
CAUTION! The GAIN level is not a volume control. Excessive use or misuse can permanently damage
your speakers. Contact your local Bass Habit dealer if you need help to set your gain level.
BASS BOOST 12/6/0dB:
Use caution when adjusting the Bass Boost. Incorrect usage may damage your speakers.
The bass Boost function will increase the output up to 12dB at 45Hz.
CROSSOVERS:
The Bass Habit Play amplifier is a full range class A/B amplifier. It can be used for all type off
speakers, both high frequency speakers and subwoofers. Set the crossovers according to your
system setup.
- HPF: No frequencies below the chosen frequency cut point are allowed to pass through to a
speaker.
- LPF: No frequencies above the chosen frequency cut point are allowed to pass through to a
speaker.
- FULL: No built-in filters are in use.
