1. Cast Aluminum Heatsink – The cast aluminum heatsink of the Power amplifier dissipates heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% improvement of cooling over conven- tional extrusion heatsink designs. 2. Speaker/Power Terminals – The heavy duty, gold-plated terminal block connectors (+ and –) will accept 4 gauge cable and are immune to corrosion that can cause signal degradation. 3. REM Terminal – This spade terminal is used to remotely turn

MOUNTING LOCATION 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. However, to maximize the performance of your amplifier, care should be taken to ensure adequate ventilation. Trunk Mounting Mounting the amplifier vertically on a surface with the fin grooves running up

> > > BATTERY AND CHARGING 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. Stock electrical systems which are in good condition should be able to handle the extra load of any Rockford amplifier without problems, although battery and alternator life can be reduced slightly. To maximize the perf

4. Prepare a length of cable to be used for the ground connection. Strip 5/8" of insulation from the end of the cable as described above and connect to the appropriate terminal of the amplifier. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any paint from the metal surface and thoroughly clean the area of all dirt and grease. Strip the other end of the wire and attach a ring connector. Fasten the cable to the chassis using a non- anodized screw and a star washer. 5. Prepare the REM turn-on wire for

a O d p v e + r a a USING PASSIVE CROSSOVERS n t c i e o d n 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. A crossover network can perform one of three functions: High-Pass (capaci- tors), Low-Pass (inductors or coils) and Bandpass (combination of capacitor and coil). The most commonly used passive crossover
