wired
in
the
conventional
stereo
manner
while
a
subwoofer
is
simultaneously
connected
to
the
bridged
terminals
of
the
same

performed
by
an
Authorized
dealer
.
Attempting
an
installation
project
on
your
own
or
through
an
unauthorized
source
may
result
in
damage
to
your

and
may
potentially
void
your
warranty
.
Amplifiers
are
generally
mounted
in
the
hatch/trunk
area
of
your
car
or
SUV
or
behind
the
seat
of
most
pick
up
trucks.

will
result
in
damage
to
the
amplifier.
Damage
of
this
nature
is
NOT
covered
under
warranty.
Please
pay
close
attention
to
what
connections
are
made
to
the
amplifier
.
If
you
are
uncertain
or
uncomfortable
proceeding
with
your
installation,
please
contact
your
local
authorized
Memphis
Audio
Dealer
TROUBLESHOOTING
When
troubleshooting
your
amp
,
speaker
and
speaker
wires
should
be
tested
first.
No
Output:
•
Confirm
all
wiring
is
firmly
connected.
Both
+12V
and
REM
terminals
must
have
+12
Volts
present
and
GND
must
be
connected
to
chassis'
ground
or
to
the
negative
battery
terminal.
•
Confirm
the
signal
source
is
connected
and
supplying
an
output
signal.
To
confirm
the
amp
is
working,
connect
an
RCA
patch
cord
to
the
line
inputs
of
the
amplifier
[do
not
connect
the
other
end
of
the
patch
cord).
Briefly
tap
the
center
pin
of
each
disconnected
RCA
with
your
finger.
This
should
produce
a
noise
[brief
static
or
hum)
in
the
speakers
.
•
If
the
amp
is
hot,
check
the
speaker
impedance
or
load.
The
total
minimum
impedance
of
all
speakers
should
not
be
lower
than
the
rating
of
the
amp
.
Only
One
Channel
Works:
•
Confirm
the
speaker
terminal
strip
connections
are
firmly
connected.
•
Check
"balance"
control
on
your
signal
source.
•
If
using
RCA
Low-Level
inputs
,
reverse
the
input
plugs
at
the
amplifier
.
If
the
channel
that
is
silent
reverses
position,
the
problem
is
in
the
source
unit
or
connecting
cable
.
Weak
Output
•
Check
input
sensitivity
control
adjustment.
Unwanted
Noise
•
Whine
that
increases
and
decreases
with
engine
speed
-
confirm
the
Amp
6
Source
unit
are
grounded
properly.
•
Clicking
or
popping
noise
at
a
rate
that
follows
engine
speed
-
this
is
often
induced
by
the
vehicles
ignition
system
.
Confirm
that
the
vehicle
is
equipped
with
resistor
spark
plugs
and
wires.
The
ignition
system
may
need
service.
•
Noise
can
be
caused
by
routing
speaker
input
wires
too
close
to
the
light
wires
and
other
accessory
wires
in
the
vehicle
.
Re-route
wires
to
avoid
unwanted
interference.
•
If
above
steps
do
not
improve/reduce
noise
,
the
system
should
be
checked
by
a
professional
audio
installer
at
a
Memphis
Authorized
Dealer
.

control
is
NOT
a
volume
control.
The
gain
control
adjusts
the
amount
of
signal
required
to
drive
the
amplifier
to
full
output.
With
the
gain
at
full
clockwise
rotation,
less
signal
voltage
is
required
to
drive
the
amp
to
full
output.
With
the
gain
at
full
counter
clockwise
rotation,
more
signal
voltage
is
required
to
drive
the
amp
to
full
output.
For
optimal
performance,
set
the
gain
control
to
minimum
High
Pass
Filter
[HPF)
The
high
pass
crossover/filter
is
designed
to
remove
low
frequency
information
from
a
speaker.
This
is
generally
used
to
protect
smaller
devices
from
trying
to
reproduce
low
frequency
information
that
might
damage
them.
The
crossover
frequency
is
adjustable
from
50
Hz
to
lKHz
and
uses
12
dB
per
octave
slope.
To
engage
the
HPF
simply
slide
the
switch
to
the
position
on
the
marked
HPF.
Crossover
frequency
selection
is
made
by
rotating
the
dial:
clockwise
raises
the
frequency,
counter-clockwise
lowers
the
frequency.
Most
mid-bass
or
midrange
drivers
should
be
set
between
80
and
!JOO
Hz
depending
on
how
high
the
subwoofer(s)
plays.
For
mid-range
drivers
that
are
5"
or
smaller
we
suggest
setting
the
HPF
to
120Hz.
The
HPF
can
also
be
combined
with
passive
crossovers
on
a
separate
or
coaxial
speaker
set to
provide
low
frequency
protection
to
the
midrange
driver,
or
to
form
band-pass
filter
for
a
midrange
speaker
already
using
a
passive
low-pass
filter.
Low
Pass
Filter
[LPF)
The
Lowpass
crossover/filter
is
designed
to
remove
high
frequency
information
from
a
speaker.
This
is
generally
used
to
prevent
mid
bass
speakers
or
subwoofers
from
trying
to
reproduce
mid
and
high
frequency
information
that
they
are
not
designed
to
reproduce.
The
crossover
frequency
is
adjustable
from
30Hz
to
250Hz
and
uses
a
12dB
per
octave
slope.
To
engage
the
LPF
slide
the
switch
to
the
position
marked
LPF.
Frequency
selection
is
made
by
rotating
the
dial:
clockwise
raises
the
frequency
and
counter
clockwise
lowers
the
frequency.
Most
subwoofers
should
be
set
between
80Hz
and
lOOHz
depending
on
how
low
the
mid-bass
or
midrange
drivers
are
capable
of
playing.
Full
Range
Sliding
the
selector
switch
to
this
position
turns
off
all
crossovers
and
allows
a
full
range
signal
to
pass.
The
flat
position
should
be
selected
when
using
outboard
electronic
crossovers.
Bass
Boost
Bass
boost
on
all
models
is
switchable
to
0/6/12dB.
Boost
should
be
used
with
discretion,
keeping
in
mind
that
electronically
enhanced
boost
places
an
additional
load
on
the
amplifier
and
the
speakers
they
are
connected
to.

Installation
Information
Memphis
Audio
recommends
the
installation
of
our
products
to
be
performed
by
an
Authorized
dealer.
Attempting
an
installation
project
on
your
own
or
through
an
unauthorized
source
may
result
in
damage
to
your
products
and
may
potentially
void
your
warranty.
Amplifiers
are
generally
mounted
in
the
hatch/trunk
area
of
your
vehicle
or
behind
the
seat
of
most
pick
up
trucks.
Select
a
location
that
provides
adequate
ventilation.
Amplifier
should
be
secured
using
the
screws
provided.
Warning
For
your
safety,
always
inspect
the
mounting
location
carefully
to
ensure
you
are
not
drilling
into
any
electrical,
hydraulic,
fuel
or
fluid
lines.
Always
check
your
speaker
load
with
a
multi-meter
before
connecting
the
amplifier.
Connecting
any
speaker
load
lower
than
the
rated
impedance
of
the
amplifier
will
result
in
damage
to
the
amplifier.
Damage
of
this
nature
is
NOT
covered
under
warranty.
Please
pay
close
attention
to
what
connections
are
made
to
the
amplifier.
If
you
are
uncertain
or
uncomfortable
proceeding
with
your
installation,
please
contact
your
local
authorized
Memphis
Audio
Dealer
Troubleshooting
When
troubleshooting
your
amp,
speaker
and
speaker
wires
should
be
tested
first.
No
Output:
•
Confirm
all
wiring
is
firmly
connected.
Both
+12V
and
REM
terminals
must
have
+12
Volts
present
and
GND
must
be
connected
to
chassis'
ground
or
to
the
negative
battery
terminal.
•
Confirm
the
signal
source
is
connected
and
supplying
an
output
signal.
To
confirm
the
amp
is
working,
connect
an
RCA
patch
cord
to
the
line
inputs
of
the
amplifier
[do
not
connect
the
other
end
of
the
patch
cord).
Briefly
tap
the
center
pin
of
each
disconnected
RCA
with
your
finger.
This
should
produce
a
noise
[brief
static
or
hum)
in
the
speakers.
·
If
the
amp
is
hot,
check
the
speaker
impedance
or
load.
The
total
minimum
impedance
of
all
speakers
should
not
be
lower
than
the
rating
of
the
amp.
Only
One
Channel
Works:
•
Confirm
the
speaker
terminal
strip
connections
are
firmly
connected.
•
Check
"balance"
control
on
your
signal
source.
•
If
using
RCA
Low-Level
inputs,
reverse
the
input
plugs
at
the
amplifier.
If
the
channel
that
is
silent
reverses
position,
the
problem
is
in
the
source
unit
or
connecting
cable.
Weak
Output
•
Check
input
sensitivity
control
adjustment.
Unwanted
Noise
•
Whine
that
increases
and
decreases
with
engine
speed
-
confirm
the
Amp
6
Source
unit
are
grounded
properly.
•
Clicking
or
popping
noise
at
a
rate
that
follows
engine
speed
-
this
is
often
induced
by
the
vehicles
ignition
system.
Confirm
that
the
vehicle
is
equipped
with
resistor
spark
plugs
and
wires.
The
ignition
system
may
need
service.
•
Noise
can
be
caused
by
routing
speaker
input
wires
too
close
to
the
light
wires
and
other
accessory
wires
in
the
vehicle.
Re-route
wires
to
avoid
unwanted
interference.
•
If
above
steps
do
not
improve/reduce
noise,
the
system
should
be
checked
by
a
professional
audio
installer
at
a
Memphis
Authorized
Dealer.

Filter
(HPF)
The
high

is
designed
to
remove
low

This
is
generally
used
to
protect
smaller
devices
from
trying
to
reproduce
low
frequency
information
that
might
damage
them.
The
crossover
frequency
is
adjustable
from
50Hz
to
lkHz
and
uses
12dB
per
octave
slope.
To
engage
the
HPF
simply
slide
the

marked
HPF.
Crossover
frequency
selection
is
made
by
rotating
the
dial:
Clockwise
raises
the

Most
mid-bass
or
midrange
drivers
should
be
set
between
80
and
400
Hz
depending
on
how
high
the
subwoofer
plays.
For
mid-range
drivers
that
are
5"
or
smaller
we
suggest
setting
the
HPF
to
120Hz.
The
HPF
can
also
be
combined
with
passive
crossovers
on
a
separate
or
coaxial
speaker
set
to
provide
low
