Attention
An aftermarket audio amplifier will place an additional load on the vehicles char in system, most modern vehicles have
sufficient capacity in the char in system as not all the electrical components of the vehicle will be switched on at once. Check
the fuse ratin of the amplifier and use this as the peak current requirement, enerally the continuous current draw will be a
third of the peak current, in other words an amplifier fused at 30 amps will have a continuous current draw of 10 amps when
playin music, however it may peak at 30 amps on occasions. Please check with the manufacturer as to whether your vehicle
can cope with the additional load of your amplifier, in some instances it may be necessary to up rade the alternator and battery
or risk dama e to the vehicles electrical system.
Con ratulations on purchasin your VIBE
amplifier, please read this manual in order
to fully understand how to et the best
results from your amplifier and ensure
that all advice on how to look after the
amplifier is followed.
Thank you for buyin VIBE, we hope you
enjoy listenin to your product as much as
we enjoyed creatin it.

OWNERS MANUAL

Mounting Guidelines
Your VIBE amplifier is desi ned with a swift installation routine in mind. Please mount the amplifier in a dry location on a solid
surface. NEVER mount the amplifier upside down, this will cause the amplifier to over heat and will eventually dama e the
amplifier. Before fixin the amplifier in place please ensure that there is sufficient air flow around the exterior of the casin ,
at least two inches is sufficient.
Connections
ower Cable
●At least 4 au e cable (Deep SpaceBox Bass 1) 8 au e cable ( SpaceBox Stereo 4) should be used for the
power connection to the amplifier.
●The power cable should be taken directly from the battery. Rubber rommets should be used when passin throu h
any bulkheads to prevent the cable from becomin chaffed or cut.
●It is vital that a fuse / circuit breaker (of at least equal value to the one fitted on the amplifier) is placed inline with the
power cable and is no further than ei hteen inches away from the battery.
●Please ensure that the fuse is not fitted until the entire installation procedure is complete.
●The two tables below are to help you decide on what cable is correct for you. The first enables you to select the size of
cable dependin on the len th required. The second will help you convert the cable size from American Wire Gau e to
Metric and Imperial if you need to.

Ground Cable
●At least 4 au e cable (Deep SpaceBox Bass 1) 8 au e cable ( SpaceBox Stereo 4) should be used for
the round connection to the amplifier.
●The amplifier round should be connected directly to the chassis of the vehicle, to bare metal.
●The cable len th should be kept to an absolute minimum.
●It is not recommended that you connect the round cable to the vehicles seatbelts anchor point.
Remote Turn On
●A minimum of 18 au e cable should be used for this connection.
●The cable should be run with exactly the same care and attention as the power cable and taken back to the source
(headunit) and joined to the remote cable provided.
●If the source (headunit) does not have a remote turn on cable then a 12v supply should be used. This will require a
switch to be fitted inline to enable the amplifier to be turned on and off. Remember that if this switch is left on you will
flatten the car battery.
RCA Cables
●Dependin on the model number of your amplifier and the number of speakers you wish to power you will have to run
either one or two RCA cables from the source to the amplifier.
●Please take extra care when runnin these cables from the source to the amplifier. Ensure that they are placed away
from all items that can enerate any interference, wirin harnesses etc.
●It is recommended that the RCA cables should be run on opposite sides of the car to the previously installed power
cables if possible, to avoid the cable pickin up interference.

Set Up Section
To correctly set the ain control of the amplifier to match that of the source (headunit) use the followin setup routine:
Turn the ain control to minimum on the amplifier.
Ensure the bass boost is set to 0 dB.
On the headunit set all crossovers ( if applicable) to flat and both bass and treble to zero.
Turn up the source (headunit) to approx 3/4 volume.
Very slowly turn up the ain on the amplifier until distortion can be heard in any of the speakers or until the volume reaches
an uncomfortable listenin level when this is reached turn down the ain control sli htly.
The gain control is now set.
The settin of the crossover will depend on what kind of speaker you are installin .
For a subwoofer it is recommended that the crossover is set to Low Pass and the frequency is set to match that of the
speakers specifications, or your preferred frequency - this is usally about 60 - 120
For a pair of full ran e speakers it is recommended that the crossover is set to Flat. The two frequency controls will then
have no effect on the amplifiers output and the speaker will receive a full ran e si nal. However, usin the hi h pass
crossovers will allow more control of your speakers. By removin the bass (low frequencies) the speakers can perform at
hi her volumes with less distortion.
Note:
By usin the crossovers correctly you will not only len then the life of your speakers but you will also et better performance
from them. To optimise your setup seek the advise of a professional installation en ineer or visit your local VIBE audio dealer.

Troubleshooting
●Before removin the amplifier, refer to the list below and follow the su ested procedures.
●Always test the speakers and confirm that they are wired correctly first.
●If in any doubt please seek advice from your local authorized VIBE dealer.
Amplifier Will Not ower Up
✓Check for ood round connections. Ensure Ground cable is connected directly to bare metal and not a painted
surface.
✓Usin a multimeter check that remote terminal has at least 7V DC.
✓Usin a multimeter check that there is battery volta e of at least 10.5v DC on the positive terminal.
✓Check all fuses.
✓Check that the protection li ht is not illuminated. If it is lit, shut off the amplifier by turnin off for thirty seconds and
then turnin it back on.
rotection LED Illuminates When Amplifier Is owered Up
✓Check for shorts on all speakers wires. (IE no speaker wires should be joined to ether and no speaker wires should be
touchin the cars chassis)
●The amplifier is desi ned to shut down automatically when the units temperature oes above 80 de rees. If the
amplifier feels very hot then this may be the reason for the amplifier not startin .
●Remove the speaker wires and reset the amplifier. If the Protection LED still comes on then the amplifier is faulty. This
dama e may have been caused by either failure to follow these setup uidelines or abuse.
Amplifier Gets Very Hot
✓Check the minimum speaker impedance for the amplifier is correct.
✓Check for shorts on all speakers wires. (ie no speaker wires should be joined to ether and no speaker wires should be
touchin the cars chassis)
✓Check that there is ood airflow around the amplifier. In some applications an external fan may be required.
Blown Fuse(s)
✓Check both positive supply and round for shorts.
✓Check that the positive wire is connected to the positive terminal on the amplifier.
✓Check that the ne ative wire is connected to the round terminal on the amplifier.
✓Ensure that the correct rated fuse is fitted:
The Deep SpaceBox Bass 1 amplifier uses 4 x 30 amp fuse
The SpaceBox Stereo 4 amplifier uses 2 x 25 amp fuse
Distorted Sound
✓Check the ain control is not set at too hi h. If the speakers sound distorted turn down the ain until the
sound is clear.
✓Check that all crossover frequencies are correct. See Setup section for more details.
✓Check for shorts on all speaker wires.
✓Check all speakers are wired correctly. With the correct polarity bein observed on each connection.

The Deltabox line driver is the ideal solution for those lookin to install multiple amplifiers from a sin le RCA preout. Most people use
RCA “Y” splitters for this task unaware of the si nal de radation caused. The Deltabox not only divides the si nal but also isolates and
boosts the si nal up to a maximum of 9 volts independently for each of the 3 output channels ivin much cleaner sound and
excellent si nal to noise ratio. For SPL competition the Deltabox is an essential tool as each of the outputs can be split 4 times ivin
control of 12 amplifiers from a sin le ain enablin precise adjustment of the system without havin to reset every amplifier
individually. Additionally if your headunit has a weak preout or you wish to run multiple amps but only have one output the Deltabox™
is your ideal solution. Model: DELTABOX
