FEATURES THE WORLD’S FIRST VERTICAL CAR AMPLIFIER. COMPACT SIZE AND TINY FOOTPRINT. SINGLE END CABLE WIRING. DOUBLE SIDE PCB AND SMD COMPONENTS. FULL MOSFET DESIGN. LPF AND SUBSONIC CROSSOVER. ADJUSTABLE BASSBOOST FREQUENCY AND LEVEL. INFINITELY VARIABLE PHASE CONTROL. 1-OHM LOAD STABLE FOR ALL CLASS-D MODELS (EXCEPT FOR LARGEST MODEL WHICH IS .5-OHM LOAD STABLE).
CONTROL FUNCTIONS 1. SPEAKERS Connect speakers/subwoofers to these terminals. Be sure to check wire for proper polarity. Never connect the speaker cables to chassis ground. 2. +12 Volt Power Connect this terminal through a FUSE or CIRCUIT BREAKER to the positive terminal of the vehicle battery or the positive terminal of an isolated audio system battery.
CONTROL FUNCTIONS 7. REMOTE Connect the remote controller to control the subwoofer amplifier volume from the driver seat location, for ease of adjustment during playing. 8. LEVEL Control The level control will match the amplifiers sensitivity to the source units signal voltage.
CONTROL FUNCTIONS 14. X-over mode and frequency Control (Monoblocks) These controls allow control over the frequencies played for the rear channels. There is an option for Low/BandPass, Full Range or High Pass. In HP mode, the frequency range is from 15Hz to 500Hz. In LP mode, the frequency range can be switched from 50Hz to 800Hz, or 250Hz to 4kHz.
. MOUNTING AMPLIFIER 1.Soundstream D-Tower amplifiers can be installed vertical or horizontal. Plan the installation method and find a suitable location with sufficient air circulation.
CONNECTING THE AMPLIFIER 1. Select cable and fuse according to the following table. MODEL DTR1.900D DTR1.1400D DTR1.1700D DTR1.2200D DTR1.3400D DTR4.500 CABLE FUSE 100A 150A 200A 250A 2. Connect the amplifiers ground cable to a close, bare metal part of the frame or chassis.
