Page 3: Safety Precautions
AFETY PRECAUTIONS Fuse amplifier’s power wire at the battery. 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! Use high grade wire connectors. -
Page 4: Features And Benefits
EATURES AND BENEFITS DC Offset Protection 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. Short Circuit Protection The circuit protects the amplifier from damage due to a short found in the speakers or wiring. - Page 5 Bass Boost For added low frequency performance the two channel amplifiers are equipped with 12dB bass boost. Power Fusing This protects the amplifier against short circuits and excessive current. Remote Turn-on Automatically turns amplifier on when connected to the head unit's remote output. The amplifier will turn on and off with the head unit to save current consumption.

Page 6: Mounting Location
OUNTING LOCATION 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: Signal Connections
IGNAL CONNECTIONS Connect the output of the head unit (AM/FM cassette player, CD, or DAT) to the RCA input terminals of the amplifier. To make these connections, we recommend high quality RCA cables, which are available at your local car audio retailer. Run signal wires away from electrical wires to avoid possibility of induced noise from the car's electrical system (i.e. - Page 9 IGH LEVEL CONNECTIONS (OPTIONAL) If a low level RCA signal source is not available, you may still wire the models 100SX, 200SX, and 400SX with high-level or speaker level outputs from your head unit. However, only speaker leads from a "floating ground" system may be used (see diagram below). Use the strip connector located on the end of the amplifier to make this connection.
- Page 10 PEAKER CONNECTIONS Make the speaker connections using speaker wire that is at least 16 gauge or heavier. As with any audio component, proper phasing of the amplifier and speakers is essential for strong bass response. When connecting, make sure that positive (+) from the amplifier is connected to the positive (+) of the speaker, and the same for negative (-).

Page 11: Speaker Connections
PEAKER CONNECTIONS (BRIDGED) The California amplifiers are capable of being bridged in a mono configuration. This feature allows you the flexibility of using the amplifier to drive a ** subwoofer or a center channel. In this configuration the amplifier sums the right and left channel to deliver one channel (mono) output. - Page 12 4 Ohm connections. If you wish to use multiple speakers to achieve a lower impedance and higher power, it is strongly recommended that you seek professional advice from your Profile retailer before attempting to make these connections. Please Note: In the Tri-mode configuration, the amplifier’s built-in crossover must be set to the”...

(Please note: If you intend to u se the amplifier in the Tri-mode configuration, it is necessary to set the crossover control to the “Flat” setting in order to receive full range output) The California amplifiers are equipped with a built-in variable crossover network allowing you to select the crossover type (i.e.

Page 14: Troubleshooting The System
ROUBLE SHOOTING THE SYSTEM 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. -
