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 car or SUV 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 NDT 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 .
Red LED is Illuminated
• Speaker or wire is shorted
• Battery voltage too low
• Battery voltage too high
• Amplifier has overheated due to improper ventilation

Power Su ly Connections
fl>. Install the fuse at the battery last! &,
Use conventional stranded copper wire for all connections. Finish the ends of the wi res at the amp and vehicle with proper si ze terminals . Poorly
made connections and/or inadequate wire size will generate excessive heat and may lead to equipment failure .
12 Volt • Connection
make the 12V+ connection directly at the positive battery post using the proper wire size and fuse listed below, The fuse should be installed
within 18" of the battery. This fuse is vital to protecting the vehicle from damage in the case of a dead short. The fuse value at the battery
should be at least equal to the total fuse value of all the amplifiers being used .
Ground Connection:
Make ground connection directly to the chassis of the vehicle as close to the amp as possible . Make sure this connection is made with the
same wire size as used for the 12 volt connection. Ensure that all dirt , grease , paint and coatings are removed prior to attaching the ground
wire to chassis .
Remote Turn-On
Remote turn on should be connected to the source unit's remote turn on lead .
Automatic Turn-On Selection:
The Six Five series offers three different automatic turn - on modes that can be selected on the end panel ; +12V , DC Offset , and Audio . Using either
the DC Offset or Audio mode causes the REM terminal to have +12V out for turning on additional amplifiers .
Remote Turn-On 12V method: Set the switch to +12V to use the remote turn - on lead from your source unit. Run 18 gauge wire from the Remote
Turn-On lead on your source unit to the terminal labeled REM between the amplifier's positive and negative power terminals . This is the
preferred automatic turn - on method .
Remote Turn-On DC OFFSET method: If Remote Turn-On is not an option , the next best setting is DC Offset. The DC Offset mode detects a 6V
DC offset from the HI-Level speaker outputs when the source unit has been turned on .
Remote Turn-On SIGNAL SENSE method: The Audio setting is the final alternative for Automat ic turn-on . This is a Signal Sense turn-on method
that detects the incoming audio signal from your source unit and automatically turns on the amp . This turn - on method will not work properly if
the input gain control is not set appropriately .

Signal Input Connections
The VIV amplifier has dual input sensitivity differential RCA inputs which will receive either high or low level signals from your car stereo 's
source unit. A high-level signal can be run from the source unit's speaker outputs to the stereo RCA input on the end panel of the amplifier
using RCA cables and cutting the ends to expose the internal wiring . This wiring can then be connected to your high level speaker signal and
plugged into the amplifier, be sure the switch on the amp is setto "HI" Alternatively , the si gnal can be delivered to the amplifier us i ng the
low-level RCA outputs on the source unit. Set the input level switch on the end panel of the amplifier to "LO" . Keep the audio signal cable
away from factory wiring harnesses and other power wiring . If you need to cross this wiring , cross it at a 90 degree angle .

Wiring Multi-Channel Amps
Speaker have a positive and negative marking on the terminals . These are used to indicate polar i ty and must be considered when wiring speakers
or subwoofers to an amplifier . Amplifiers also have positive and negative markings on their speaker outpu ts. Use these mark i ng to ma t ch
polarities to ensure the speakers are in phase . Failure to wire speakers or woofers in phase with one another will result ina loss of bass . All Six
Five Series amplifiers require a minimum 2 ohm impedance in stereo or q ohm in mono (bridged) mode .
Always check your speaker load with a multi-meter before hooking them up to the amplifier . The VIVII00 . 4¥2 amplifier is stable
to 2 ohms stereo or 4 ohms bridged mono. The VM300.5V2 // VIVBELLE amplifiers are stable to 2 ohms stereo
or q ohms bridged mono
(front & rear channels) and stable to 2 ohms [sub channel) . Any Impedance [load) smaller than what Is recommended will
damage the ampllflerl Such damage is not covered under warranty , so pay strict attention to what connections are made to the amplifier .

Input level: The RCA inputs on Sixfive Series Amplifiers are capable of receiving either Hi or Low-level signals from your source unit. If the only
output available from your source unit is a Hi-Level signal , simply press in the FR (Full Range) switch on the ampl i fier . Either input method will
provide a low-level output signal at the RCA output, which effectively passes the audio signal to another amplifier or component. Refer to the
wiring section of this manual for additional instructions .
Input Gain Control: The input gain control is not a volume control. It matches the output of the source unit to the input level of the amplifie r.
Turn the source unit up to about 3/q volume (if the source unit goes to 30, turn it to 25). Next , slowly turn (clockwise) the gain on the amplifier up
until you can hear audible distortion. then turn it down alittle.
Crossover Switches with Frequency Multiplier: Use the XOVER switches on the amplif i er to set the internal crossovers of REAR 6 FRONT to
OFF, HI - PASS , LO - PASS , or BANO · PASS (FRONT only) . When the switch is set to OFF, a full bandwidth signal will be amplified . Set the switch to HP if
you want the amplifier's internal crossover to serve as a high - pass filter. Set the switch to LP if you want the amplifier's internal crossover to
serve as a low-pass filter. Set the switch to BP when a specific frequency range is required. Never change the crossover switches with the
audio system on!
Set the lX/lOX frequency multiplier switch to the setting that is appropriate fur your application .A setting of lOX will set the range of the REAR
crossover to 100-5 , 000Hz , and the LO-PASS crossover of FRONT to 500-5 , 000Hz .
Bass Boost Control: The variable bass boost control on the SixFive Series amplifier is designed to give you increased output ,0- 18dB , at q5Hz .
The setting for this control is subjective . If you turn it up , you must readjust the input gain control to avoid clipp i ng the amplifier .
Input Mode Switch: Depressing button selects q-channel , raised button selects 2 channel inputs .
