Introduction
The Jensen Power series
of
amplifiers were designed to meet
or
exceed the
CEA-2010 test standards. These new standards give all participating
manufacturers (and many don't participate) a baseline when comparing
amplifiers
of
similar power output. The CEA Power rating protects you, the
customer. "Power is
power-
it doesn't matterwho makes it," is not always true.
What does matteris whether the power can be produced
in
the first place. The
RMS rating is the true poweryou are getting. At Jensen,to be fairto you and to
the competition,
we
rate our amps
in
the two most popular ratings, including
the CEA RMS rating. So feel confident that your Jensen purchase decision
was a sound one, and remember "If it's
Too
Loud, You're Too Old."
Before You Begin
We need to get the legal stuff out
of
the way, so please keep reading.
Afterwards, you'
ll
be armed with the knowledge to install your new hard-hitting,
speaker-pumping Jensen amplifier.
Exposure to loud sounds
or
music can permanently damage your hearing.
Unfortunately, in many cases, the damage is not noticeable until years later.
In
addition, loud music may hinder your ability to hear traffic, police, and fire
or
emergency vehicles. Please be responsible and have respect for other people
by listening at moderate volumes!
Warranty Service
If
your Jensen amplifier should ever require service, you will need the original
dated receipt.
If
you must return the unit for any reason, always include the
receipt with the product.

Installation
Before you begin the installation
of
your Power series amp remember, there
are two ways to do
things-
right and twice! Use the proper installation
techniques, tools and accessories to ensure that your Jensen Power series
amp will put out all the power it was designed to. Ifnecessary, seek a
professional installer to have the amplifier installed correctly. Most mobile amp
installations do not have the proper gauge wire for power and ground -do not
let your amp be a victim
of
this common installation oversight!
NOTE: This device is a high-poweraudio amplifier intended for
installation in vehicles with a 12-Volt negative ground electrical system.
Attempting to connect
or
operate the amplifierwith another type
of
electrical system
may
cause damage
to
the amplifier
or
the electrical
system.
Installation Assistance
For installation assistance, call 1-800-323-4815 during normal business hours,
or
visit www.jensen.com at any time.
Supplies
and
Tools Needed
To
install the amplifier, you will need tools, supplies and adapters. It is best to
make sure you have everything you need before you start.
Supplies
• Black electrical tape
• Amplifier Installation Kit
Tools
• Cordless drill with assortment
of
bits
• Flat-head and Philips screwdrivers
• Wire cutters/strippers
• Crimping tool
• 12-volttest light or digital multimeter
• Wire brush, sandpaper
or
scraping tool (ground connection to vehicle should
be a clean, unpainted metal surface)

e)
DisconnectBattery
Disconnectthe negative (-) battery cable before starting the installation. Check
the battery ground (there should be two (2) ground wires coming from the
battery-
one going to the starter mounting bolt or engine block and another
going to the vehicle chassis) and make sure the battery is grounded to the
chassis with at least a
#4
gauge wire. Also check the alternator connections,
making sure they are tight and free from corrosion, rust or dirt.
Location
and
Mounting
The amplifier's compact design allows great flexibility
in
mountin
g.
Common
mounting locations include under the front passenger seat or in the trunk area.
When selecting a location, remember that amplifiers generate heat. Select a
location on a flat surface away from heat and moisture where air can circulate
around the amplifier.
Place the amplifier
in
the mounting location and markthe positions
of
the holes
with a marker, pen or pencil. Carefully drill the mounting holes in the marked
positions, then use the supplied mounting screws to securely fasten the
amplifier to the mounting surface.
WARNING: Do not cover the amplifierwith carpets
or
enclose
it
behind
interior trim panels,
and
do
not
mount the amplifierin an inverted
or
upside down configuration.
Be
sure the mounting location
and
the
drilling
of
pilotholes will
not
damage
any
wires, control cables, fuel
lines, fuel tanks, hydrauliclines orothervehicle systems
or
components.
Routing Wires
Proper wiring connections are illustrated on the following pages. Ifwiring
connections are made incorrectly, the unit will not operate properly and could
become permanently damaged. Follow the installation instructions carefully,
or
have the amplifier installed by an experienced technician.

Power
Wiring
Charging System
In
some
cases,
the
installation
of
just
one
(1)
amplifiercould be enough
to
overload yourfactory electrical system (i.e., alternator). Depending on the
state
of
your electrical system and overall condition
of
your vehicle, you may
need
to
upgrade youralternator and battery.After
the
vehicle
is
started,
the
alternator provides
the
power
to
yourelectrical system,
not
the
battery. When
the
engine
is
running,
the
alternator
is
your main source
of
power. Upgrading
the
alternator should be yourfirst consideration
if
you should experience a
voltage
drop
in
the
system when operating
your
audio system. Adding
capacitors
and/or
batteries
without
upg
rading
the
alternator will
only
make
the
problem worse because these devices
put
an
extra load on
the
alternator.After
upgrading
the
alternator,capacitors
and/or
batteries can be installed
if
desired.

Make the ground lead as short as possible, leaving enough length to complete

To
ensure a good ground, scrape away any paint or undercoating to expose
bare metal. Use a "ring" terminal
of
the proper gauge and an "outside star
washer" (between the chassis and ring terminal) when making yourground
connection. Although you've scraped awaythe paint to expose bare metal, the
outside starwasher will help to "bite into" the chassis for a tight, secure
ground.

Indicators and Controls
Power Indicator (POWER)
The power indicator provides a visual indication that the amplifier is turned on.
Input Level Control (LEVEL)
The input LEVEL control matches the output of your radio to the input ofthe
amplifier. After the installation
is complete, make sure the input level control on
the amplifier is turned down all the way (counter-clockwise or all the way to the
left). Play a tape or
CD (make sure bass and treble settings or Bass EQ are
flat) and turn the volume
up slowly until you just start to hear distortion. Back
the volume down just a bit.
On the amplifier, slowly turn up the input level
control (clockwise or to the right) until you just start to hear distortion, then
back it down a bit. Now your radio and amplifier levels are matched.
BASSEQ
The Bass EQ is continuously adjustable from 0 to +12dB @ 45Hz. Ad justing
the Bass Boost level allows different subwoofer/enclosure combinations to
be
equalized. Use this control to increase the level of low bass available from your
subwoofer/enclosure combination. Ported and Band Pass enclosures should
be limited to about +6dB
to +9dB of boost. Sealed enclosures should be able
to accept the full +12dB of boost, if necessary. The full +12dB of boost should
be reserved for special applications since improper use of the Bass Boost
could damage your subwoofers at high volumes.
Low Pass Filter (LPF)
The Low Pass Filter controls adjust the crossover point. Typical crossover is
between 60Hz and 80Hz for ported and sealed enclosures. Bandpass boxes
will typically use a higher crossover setting between 125Hz and 150Hz. Since
musical tastes vary, you should play music that you would normally listen to
in
your vehicle, with the above settings as a starting point. If necessary, set the
crossover by ear.
High Pass Filter (HPF)
The high pass filter will limit the low frequencies being transmitted to your
speakers. This can
be useful in number of situations. For example, if you
selected the high pass filter
and set the crossover to 40Hz, then you would
have
an infra-sonic (sub-sonic) filter at 40Hz, which would be useful with
certain enclosure/subwoofer combinations that were tuned between 45Hz and
50Hz. Other uses might include limiting the low frequencies
to smaller
8
POWER Amplifiers
speakers (6 1/2", 6 X 9", etc.) by adjusting the crossover to a higher setting
(80-100Hz).
Phase Switch
The Phase Switch is selectable to 0 degrees (normal polarity) and 180
degrees (inverted polarity). Depending on the size and location of your
subwoofer and main speakers, you may need to adjust the Phase
Switch
to provide the best blend in the midbass (60 - 150Hz) .
To determine the appropriate phase setting, select either regular (0°)
or inverted (180°) and perform a sound test. Listen carefully to the
sound quality while playing a
CD with male voices and/or low bass
such as percussion
or bass lines, then select the position that
produces the fullest and most dynamic bass. You may need to adjust
the Input Level Control and the
Low Pass Filter control after setting
the
Phase Switch.

POWER
Amplifiers
Testing
Before finishing the installation, perform the following tests to make sure the
wiring is correct and everything is operating properly.
Reconnect Battery
When wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative terminal.
Test Power Wiring
Turn
on
the receiver, but do not turn up the volume. The amplifier power light
should come on.
If
not, check the REM and +12V (B+) wires. Turn up the
receiver volume slightly. All speakers should operate. If not, check wiring
connections
at
amplifier and speakers.
Test Speaker Connections
These tests make sure the speakers are connected properly. Ifspeakers don't
play at all, one (or both) speakerwires may be disconnected.
9
Remote
Input
Level
Control
The Power 2000.10 comes equipped with a Remote Input Level Control.
Tre
Remote Input Level Control allows the input level to be adjusted from an
alternate location. It can be mounted under-dash or in-dash. When the
amplifier is used to drive subwoofers and the low pass crossover is activated,
the Remote Input Level Control can be used as a "remote bass level control".
This enables you to control the bass level independent from the rest
of
the
system. This is convenient for system tuning and/or when playing many
different types
of
music.
The Remote Input Level Control uses a 3.5mm modular cable for connectivity.
Simply plug the 3.5mm modular cable into the amplifier and then into the
Remote Input Level Control to activate the circuit.
