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 the amplifiers are equipped with a variable 0~12 dB bass boost @ 45Hz. 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.
Speaker Output R L Bridged REM GND B+ Fuse 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 recommended using an 4 to 10 gauge power wire for your connections depending on the amplifier and length of the wire.
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.

Speaker Output R L Bridged REM GND B+ Fuse 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.
