SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THIS "WARNING" SIGN ALERTS THE USER OF IMPORTANT INFO. NOT
FOLLOWING THIS INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE INJURIES TO THE USER OR
DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
Warning!
To prevent injuries to the user or damage to the amplifier, read all safety instructions written
on this manual;
If you are insecure about the installation of this equipment, get in touch with our tech
support or with a professional specialized in car audio/vessel audio installation;
Before proceeding with the installation of any electric equipment on your vehicle/vessel,
unplug the negative (-) terminal of the battery to avoid fires, injuries or damages;
Use your sound system safely. The continuous exposure to sound pressures over 85dB
may cause irreversible hearing damage;
This equipment is for use in DC voltage batteries between 12.6 and 14.4 volts. Before
installing the equipment, check voltage of the batteries;
Choose a ventilated place to install the amplifier;
Mount the amplifier in a secure way. Avoid mounting it on metallic parts of the
vehicle/vessel, because it may cause ground looping (noise);
Make sure that the location chosen for the amplifier installation does not effect the
operation of the vehicle/vessel;
Please select a dry location to mount your amplifier. The products are designed to
operate in humid environments but the direct contact with water can damage the amplifier;
When passing cables through metallic walls, use rubber O-rings to avoid cable cutting and
short-circuits;
Clean the amplifier periodically with brush or dry cloth to assure the thermal efficiency of
the heatsink;
This product may reach temperatures over 60°C/140°F. Make sure it is cold before touching
it;
Be careful when making holes in the vehicle/vessel. Make sure you are not making holes in
the fuel tank, brake lines, boat hull or electrical cables of the vehicle/vessel;
Make sure the cables are properly secured throughout the installation;
Wear gloves, safety glasses and and all necessary PPE during the installation of
SounDigital amplifiers.

ELECTRICAL DIMENSIONING AND AUDIO INPUTS
ELECTRICAL DIMENSIONING
For proper operation of your SounDigital amplifier, you need the proper dimensioning of the
electrical system and the cables used.
The table below shows the minimum section of GND cables, +12VDC cables and speaker
output cables according to the power generated by the amplifier.
We recommend the use of ONLY OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) Cables on the installation of our
products.

INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
ØMount the amplifier in such a way you have access to the connectors;
ØInstall the power cables in the vehicle/vessel properly, starting from the battery to the
fuse holder or circuit breaker, use the cable with the appropriate size. Make all
connections, install fuse holders or circuit breakers, but without placing the fuses or
with the circuit breakers in the "OFF" position;
ØConnect the power cables in to the amplifier, observing the polarity. Connect all the
positive cables from the fuse holder or circuit breaker to the positive conector of the
amplifier and all the negative power cables from the batteries to the negative connector
of the amplifier;
ØThe ground cable must be as short as possible and must be connected to the negative
connector of battery or vehicle chassis in case of metallic chassis;
ØInstall the signal input cables in a proper way, distant from the power cables;
ØConnect the RCA or the High level signal input cables to the head unit and amplifiers;
ØInstall the audio output cables with the appropriate section, distant from the power and
audio input cables;
ØConnect the audio output cables to the amplifier and speakers respecting the positive
(+) and negative (-) polarities;
ØInstall the remote cable with the power cables, using 1.5mm² (15 AWG) cable or thicker;
ØConnect the remote power cable to the amplifier's "REM" terminal at the main unit's
remote power output (when not using the high level signal inputs);
ØBefore powering the system, verify all the connections and make sure there are no
mistakes or short-circuits on the power and ground cables;
Ø;Reconnect the ground of the batteries
ØCheck if the head unit is turned off and then place the fuses in the fuse holders or
switch the circuit breakers on;
ØTurn on the main unit and the amplifier will turn on the "ON" LED indicating that it is in
operation.
Warning!
Warning!
Remove the paint between
the terminal and chassis

positioning controls in the center (left
and right fader controls);
ØDigital AC voltmeter;
ØScrewdriver 1/8" ( for gain set).
ØOnce you have adjusted the amplifier to
its correct voltage output, turn off the
source unit and reconnect the
speaker(s)
ØIncrease the gain control until the target
voltage is observed with the voltmeter
(see the chart below);
ØConnect the AC voltmeter to the speaker
output connectors of the amplifier. Make
sure you test the voltage at the correct
connectors (+ and –);

ØSet the Low Pass switch to "OFF";
ØUse a 60 Hz sine wave;

CROSSOVER SET UP

Using Bass Boost
The Amplifier Bass Boost setting enables the user to boost the sound intensity at
low frequencies of the sound system, where boost intensity can be adjusted.
This is a semi-parametric equalizer type circuit with ''Q'' value for the fixed filter, with
an intensity boost adjustment from 0 to +12dB (16 times), and a central frequency
adjustment of the filter in 50Hz, making it versatile for several types of sound
systems.
Set in the "SUBSONIC" variable control between 5Hz and 40Hz ("A") where you
want to perform the subsonic cut filter;
Set in the "LOW" variable control between 50Hz and 500Hz ("B") where you want to
perform the low pass cut filter;
How to Adjust Bass Boost
How to Adjust the Crossovers
Reproduce your favorite song and set the boost intensity between 0dB and +12dB
at the variable control level according your preference.
