High current draw
The X-D11 is a mono amplifier with high power output.
The current draw is also high so you must make sure
that your vehicles power system (battery and alternator)
can provide all the power you need. If you have a bad
battery or alternator in can result in a poor sound or
even worse, a broken battery or alternator.
Both the positive wire and the ground wire must have
the same size. To avoid cable fire, be sure not to
oversize the main fuse value for the power wires.
Professional Tip:
THE DC-FEED
Maximum main fuse values for different cable sizes.
