I NTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of a California state-of-the-art power amplifier. Your selection of a California car audio product indicates a true appreciation of fine musical reproduction.
S 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.
F 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.
Bass Boost For added low frequency performance all amplifiers are equipped with 12 dB 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.
M 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.
REM GND B+ Fuse Bridged Speaker Output R L Connect the amplifier to the car's battery. 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 recommend using an 4 to 6 gauge power wire for your connections depending on the amplifier and length of the wire.

CH1 CH2 CH3 CH4 Fuse CH3 CH4 Bridged CH1 CH2 Bridged Speaker Output REM GND B+ REM GND B+ Fuse Bridged Speaker Output R L Make the speaker connections using speaker wire that is at least 14 gauge or heavier. As with any audio component, proper phasing of the amplifier and speakers is essential for strong bass response.

REM GND B+ Fuse Bridged Speaker Output R L CAUTION! In Tri- mode operation, the amplifier must see a 2 Ohm load or higher for the stereo satellites and no lower than 4 Ohms for the subwoofer(s). Any lower than the above mentioned impedance will cause the amplifier to overheat and possibly cause permanent damage to the amplifier.
Bass Boost 0 12 (Please note: If you intend to us e the amplifier in the Tri-mode configuration, it is necessary to set the crossover control to the "Off" 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.
T 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.
