Summary of Contents for Bazooka CSA50.4

  • Page 2 Dear customer, Congratulations on your purchase of a Bazooka CS high-performance amplifier. At Bazooka, we are fanatics about accurate music reproduction. Your selection of our products for your sound system indicates that quality sound is also important to you too. At SAS, we take great pride in manufacturing revolutionary audio products, and through the years of engineering expertise, hand craftsmanship and critical testing procedures, we have created the CS high-performance series of amplifiers.
  • Page 3 Be sure to fuse the power wire within 12” of the car's battery. This will protect the car's battery in case of a short circuit between the power amplifier and battery. THIS IS A MUST, the amplifier's built-in fuse will only protect the power amplifier not the car's battery! To ensure maximum power transfer and secure safe connections, it is recommended to use high grade barrier spades (for connection at amplifier) and terminal rings...
  • Page 4 This circuit protects the output of the amplifier against DC voltage. If for some reason DC voltage is detected at the output stage, the amplifier will shut down protecting the speakers from direct current. The circuit protects the amplifier from damage due to a short found in the speakers or wiring.
  • Page 5 For added low frequency performance the amplifiers are equipped with a variable 0~12 dB bass boost @ 45Hz. One set of full range line outputs have been provided for convenient connection to additional amplifiers in the system. This protects the amplifier against short circuits and excessive current. Automatically turns amplifier on when connected to the head unit's remote output.
  • Page 6 Before you start the installation, it will be necessary to find a mounting location for the amplifier. Find a location in which the amplifier will receive adequate ventilation in order to dissipate the heat it develops during operation. Two popular mounting locations are in the trunk or under the seat.

  • Page 8 At times, the amplifier will need to draw large levels of current that cannot be provided by any circuit in the car's fuse box. We recommended using an 4 to 8 gauge power wire for your connections depending on the amplifier and length of the wire.

Once you select your mounting location, you will need to run the control wire from the remote to the amplifier. possibility of induced noise from the car's electrical system (i.e.

  • Page 16 We have put together this trouble-shooting guide if you experience problems after installing the amplifier. Please keep in mind that the majority of problems incurred are caused by improper installation and not the equipment itself. In addition, there are many components in the system that could cause various signal problems such as inducted electrical noise and engine noise.
