– 5 – 1. Cast Aluminum Heatsink – The cast aluminum heatsink of the Punch amplifier dissipates heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% improvement of cooling over conventional extrusion heatsink designs.
I NST ALLA TION C ONSIDERA TIONS The following is a list of tools you will need for installing the Punch amplifier: Allen wrenches 9/64" & 3/32" (included) Voltmeter Wire strippers Battery post wrench Electric hand drill w/assorted bits Wire cutters 17' (518.
M OUNTING L OCA TION The mounting location and position of your amplifier will have a great effect on its ability to dissipate the heat generated during normal operation. The design of our cast aluminum heatsink serves to easily dissipate the heat generated over a wide range of operating conditions.
B A TTERY AND C HARGING – 8 – Amplifiers will put an increased load on the vehicle's battery and charging system. We recommend checking your alternator and battery condition to ensure that the electrical system has enough capacity to handle the increased load of your stereo system.
– 9 – 3. Strip 1/2" from the battery end of the power cable and crimp a large ring terminal to the cable. Use the ring terminal to connect to the battery positive terminal. Do not install the fuse at this time. 4. Prepare the Ground cable for attachment to the amplifier by stripping 1/ 2" of insulation from the end of the wire.
– 10 – U SING P ASSIVE C ROSSOVERS A passive crossover is a circuit that uses capacitors and/or coils and is placed on speaker leads between the amplifier and speaker. The crossover delegates a specific range of frequencies to the speaker for optimum driver performance.
