  • Page 2: Introduction

    Introduction We appreciate your recent purchase of a Jensen amplifier. It is your continued commitment to us that allows us to bring you new and innovative products year after year. The new Jensen JPA series of amplifiers has been redesigned for 2005 to meet or exceed the CEA-2006 test standards.
  • Page 3: Features

    JPA1150M/JPA1300M Features • Designed and engineered in the U.S.A. • Unregulated MOSFET Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) power supply for extended dynamic range with soft-start circuitry • Main B+ Input filtering (Pi type filter) • High current driver and output stage transistors •...
  • Page 4: Installation

    Installation Before you begin the installation of your POWER series amp remember, there are two ways to do things – right and twice! Use the proper installation techniques, tools and accessories to insure that your Jensen POWER series amp will put out all the power it was designed to.
  • Page 5 JPA1150M/JPA1300M Disconnect Battery Disconnect the negative (-) battery cable before starting the installation. Check the battery ground (there should be two (2) ground wires coming from the battery - one going to the starter mounting bolt or engine block and another going to the vehicle chassis) and make sure the battery is grounded to the chassis with at least a #8 gauge wire.
  • Page 6: Wiring

    Wiring Charging System The installation of just one (1) JPA1150M/JPA1300M amplifier could be enough to overload your factory electrical system. You may need to upgrade your alternator and battery. Once the battery is used to start your vehicle, the alternator is responsible for keeping all the electrical devices in your vehicle supplied with the proper power, including your amplifiers.
  • Page 7 JPA1150M/JPA1300M Power Terminal (+12V) Connect the main power wire to the battery, within 18 inches from the positive (+) battery post, using an adequate size fuse or circuit breaker capable of handling the current of the selected power wire. A fuse or circuit breaker must be installed to prevent a possible electrical fire should the main power wire short to ground.
  • Page 8 Wiring (continued) Speaker Wiring (SPEAKER) The Speaker Wiring diagrams illustrate options for connecting one or two subwoofers. In addition, when installing or connecting full-range speakers, you must observe the proper speaker polarity. NOTE: Do not overlook the use of the proper gauge speaker wire.
  • Page 9 JPA1150M/JPA1300M Input Wiring Low Level RCA Input (INPUT) Low level (RCA) input is preferred for best performance. Most trunk/hatchback installations will require a 15-20 foot RCA cable, while pickup trucks and under-seat mounting will require a 6-12 foot RCA cable. Connect an RCA cable from your receiver to the RCA input on your amplifier.
  • Page 10: Indicators And Controls

    Indicators and Controls Power Indicator ( The power indicator provides a visual indication that the amplifier is turned on. Input Level Control (LEVEL) The input level control matches the output of your radio to the input of the amplifier. After the installation is complete, make sure the input level control on the amplifier is turned down all the way (counter-clockwise or all the way to the left).
  • Page 11 JPA1150M/JPA1300M Low Pass Filter (LPF) The Low Pass Filter controls adjust the crossover point from 40Hz to 250Hz. Typical crossover is between 60Hz and 80Hz for ported and sealed enclosures. Bandpass boxes will typically use a higher crossover setting between 125Hz and 175Hz.
  • Page 12: Testing

    Testing Before finishing the installation, perform the following tests to make sure the wiring is correct and everything is operating properly. Reconnect Battery When wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative terminal. Test Power Wiring Turn on the receiver, but do not turn up the volume. The amplifier power light should come on.
  • Page 13: Remote Bass Control

    JPA1150M/JPA1300M Remote Bass Control Remote bass control allows the input level to be adjusted from an alternate location. It can be mounted under-dash or in-dash. When the amplifier is used to drive subwoofers and the low pass crossover is activated, the remote bass control can be used as a “remote bass level control”.
