will accept up to 4-gauge power and
ground wire.

For power, rem ote and ground connec-
tions, strip off one end of each jacket to
reveal bare wire for insertion into the
connectors. Connect a wire from the
GND connector on the am plifier to the
nearest bare-m etal chassis com ponent;
scrape away the paint to ensure good
conductivity. Next, connect a wire
between the BATT term inal on the
am plifier and the POS(+) term inal of the
vehicle’s battery. Pass the wire through a
factory-installed grom m et in the firewall,
or install a grom m et if a factory grom -
m et is not available. Connect a wire
between the REM term inal of the am pli-
fier and the “rem ote out” or power-
antenna lead on the vehicle’s radio.
Wiring the Speaker-Output
Connections
P80.2, P180.2, P80.4
All the Power Series am plifiers will
accept up to 8-gauge speaker wire.
Connect the speakers, observing proper
polarity, to the speaker-output connector.
The total im pedance of the speaker
system connected to the am plifier when
the am plifier is driven in stereo m ust be
at least two ohm s.
If you are bridging the am plifier, connect
the speaker wires to the term inals
m arked “bridged,” observing proper
polarity. The total im pedance of the
speaker system connected to the am plifi-
er m ust be at least four ohm s in bridged
m ode.
If you are running the am p in Tri-Mode
(stereo and m ono sim ultaneously), con-
nect the satellite speakers to the speaker
connector as you would a pair of stereo
speakers. Connect the subwoofer to the
term inals m arked “bridged” Refer to the
chart above to determ ine the capacitor
and inductor values you’ll need to route
bass signals to the woofer, and the
m idrange and high frequencies to the
satellite speakers. These passive
BP150.1, BP300.1, BP600.1, BP1200.1
Connect the woofers to the am plifier,
observing proper polarity. Although
these am plifiers have a single channel,
duplicate positive and negative connec-
tors are provided to facilitate the connec-
tion of m ultiple woofers.
The total im pedance of the speaker
system connected to a BP Series
am plifier m ust be at least 1 ohm .
crossover com ponents will also ensure
that the im pedance of the speaker sys-
tem doesn’t drop below two ohm s.

Wiring the Input-Signal
Connections
Connect a pair of signal cables with
RCA-type ends between the connectors
on the am plifier and the RCA-type signal
connectors on the source unit. If your
radio has only speaker-level outputs, you
should connect them to the speaker-level
input connectors, observing proper
polarity. When using the speaker-level
inputs, it is not necessary to connect a
wire between the “rem ote” term inal of
the am plifier and the “rem ote” lead from
the source unit. The speaker-level inputs
will sense voltage on the speaker
outputs and turn the am plifier on
autom atically.
If you are installing a P80.4 am plifier and
your source unit has only one pair of
RCA-type output connectors and a pair
of speaker-level outputs, you m ay
connect the RCA outputs to a pair of
am plifier input channels (front or rear),
and the speaker-level outputs to the
other pair of am plifier input channels.
Setting Input Level
Initially, turn the input-sensitivity LEVEL
control to its m axim um (counter-clock-
wise) position. Turn on the source unit
and increase the volum e control until it
is approxim ately three-quarters of m axi-
m um -output level. Slowly increase the
input LEVEL control (clockwise) while lis-
tening to the quality of the reproduced
sound. When you hear distortion on the
m usic peaks, turn the LEVEL control
back slightly. This is the m axim um
undistorted output level of your system .
Turning the LEVEL control up farther
WILL NOT INCREASETHE OUTPUT
POWER OFYOUR AMPLIFIER! It will
only decrease the am ount of volum e-
control rotation before the am p is at full-
output power. It will also increase the
am ount of extraneous noise present in
your system .
The BP150.1, BP300.1, BP600.1 and
BP1200.1 are designed to provide con-
stant bass regardless of the position of
the source unit’s front-to-rear fader posi-
tion. Use of this feature requires that all
four inputs are connected to the source
unit as labeled on the am plifier (front,
rear, right and left). If your source unit
has only one pair of RCA-type output
connectors and a pair of speaker-level
outputs, you m ay connect the RCA out-
puts to a pair of am plifier input channels
(front or rear), and the speaker level out-
puts to the other pair of am plifier input
channels. If nonfading bass is not im por-
tant in your system , connect a pair of
inputs, either speaker-level or RCA-type,
to either the front or rear input connec-
tors on the am plifier.
System Setup and Adjustm ent
Refer to figures 1–6 for location of
adjustm ent switches and controls.
Electronic Crossover and Bass Boost
P80.1, P80.4, P180.2
The electronic crossover can be selected
as a 12dB/oct. high-pass filter (HPF)
12dB/oct. low-pass filter (LPF) or it
can be defeated (FLAT). The crossover
frequency can be set at any frequency
between 32Hz and 320Hz.
BP150.1, BP300.1, BP600.1, BP1200.1
These am plifiers are designed to
drive subwoofers. Consequently, the
electronic crossover is a 12dB/oct.
low-pass filter which can be set at any
frequency between 32Hz and 320Hz.
The bass boost control will provide up
to 6dB of boost at 50Hz.

Troubleshooting
Sym ptom
Likely Cause
Solution
No Audio
Short circuit in speaker or speaker wire.
Disconnect speaker leads one at a tim e to determ ine
which speaker or wire is shorted or defective.
Repair the short circuit or replace bad speaker.
(Red LED flashes every four seconds)
No Audio
(Power indicator is off)
No voltage at BATT or REM term inals.
Bad or no ground connection.
Check voltage at am plifier term inals with VOM.
No Audio
Am plifier overheated.
Make sure am plifier cooling isn’t prevented by m ounting location,
(Green power LED is lit)
m ake sure speaker-system im pedance is within lim it (see Specifications).
No Audio
(Red LED stays lit)
Excessive voltage on B (+) connection.
Check vehicle charging system for defective voltage regulator.
Check LEVEL setting.
Distorted Audio
Input sensitivity not set properly;
am plifier or source unit defective.
Music lacks “punch”
Speakers are not connected properly.
Check speaker connections for proper polarity.
