CONGRATULATIONS! Selecting fine audio equipment, such as the Addictive Audio unit you have just purchased, is only the beginning of your musical enjoyment. Now is the time to consider how to maximize the fun and excitement your equipment has to offer.
at the marked locations and firmly fasten the amplifier in place with the mounting screws supplied in the accessory kit. Caution Before drilling or cutting any holes investigate the layout of your automobile thoroughly! Take care when working near the gas lines, hydraulic lines and electrical wiring.

+12V Power (+12V) This wire is usually connected directly to the positive battery terminal. Be sure to use proper fuse as rated above within 16 inches of the main battery. (Refer to Fig. 1a and 1b) Ground (GND) Same gauge as +12V and no longer than 36” This connection must be completed using an “O”...
Signal Input (RCA) Addictive Audio amplifiers have RCA connection type input terminal for low level input. A standard pair of RCA type cables can be used for all models (Refer to . The amplifiers allow both stereo and mono input. The amplifier internally Fig.

Features and Controls 50.1 / 100.1 / 200.1 (Fig.7) 1. RCA Line Output Jacks Allows signal to pass through to another amplifier. 2. RCA Line Input Jacks Input signal from source unit through RCA cable. Input Gain Level Control *NOT A VOLUME KNOB* This allows for the adjustment of the gain of both channels t o match the output level of the source unit.

A majority of companies only offer a bass boost that only allows the ability to boost a certain amount of dB at 45Hz. To adjust the Addictive Audio amplifier according to this “industry average” set the Center Frequency to 45Hz (16 clicks).

Many vehicles have small and insufficient wire to connect the alternator’s positive connection to the battery and to ground the battery to the vehicle chassis. To prevent voltage drops, these wires should be upgraded to 4-0 AWG when installing one or more Addictive Audio amplifiers. ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________...

Features and Controls 25.1 / 20.2 / 5.4 / 10.4 (Fig.4) 1. 0-180 Degree Phase Alignment Allows for the time correction of music signals to prevent phasing cancellation or music blurring. 2. MODE HPF: Set the MODE SWITCH to the HPF position when the amplifier is used to drive a tweeter/midrange system.
3. High Pass Filter with EASY CLICK (Refer to Pg.13 for EASY CL ICK Adjusting) This controls the high pass crossover point for the speaker outputs. This crossover, when selected, will attenuate the frequencies below the crossover point with a slope of -12dB per octave The crossover point is adjustable from 50-500Hz.
