Electrical Wiring
All BOSS power amplifiers are equipped with "easy-access" screw terminals. These terminals are nickel-
plated to ensure excellent electrical contact and resist corrosion.
When making electrical connections t o the amplifier, please observe the following:
Use at least 8 gauge or heavier wire for power and ground connections.
Connect the amplifier directly to the car battery.
For the ground connection, use the shortest possible wire to a good chassis ground point.
Wire the Remote connection to the remote turn-on lead of your equalizer or source unit (this is sometimes
also used as the power antenna lead).

Mounting the Amplifier
Mark the location for the mounting screw holes by positioning the amplifier where you wish to install
it,
and use a scribe (or one of the mounting screws) inserted in each mounting hole to mark the mounting
surface. If mounting surface is carpeted, measure the hole centers and mark with a felt tip pen.
Drill pilot holes in the mounting surface for the mounting screws and insert the mounting screws into
these holes. Tighten them securely.
Note: Be sure to take note of any wires, lines or other devices in your vehicle which may be located behind
any mounting surface!
