RCA Input and Pass-Thru Output - These RCA jacks allow for a normal Left and Right channel signal input. Simply connect to the 1 source unit using RCA type audio cables, keeping them away from power wiring wherever possible. On the 4 channel amplifiers (D3 500.4) “Front” and “Rear” input jacks are present as well as a “Pass-Thru” output allows the signal to pass on to other amplifiers. The Pass-Thru output is unaffected by the onboard crossover. Input Gain Adjustment - This control matches th

Mounting Locations Engine Compartment Never mount this unit in the engine compartment. Mounting the unit in the engine compartment will void your warranty. Trunk Mounting Mounting the amplifier vertically will provide adequate cooling of the amplifier. If you will be mounting it to an existing panel, be sure it’s not prone to excessive vibration (such as mounting to the back of a subwoofer enclosure). Excess vibration is not recommended for electronic products, amplifiers included.

3) Trim the power cable within 18 inches (45.7mm) of the positive battery Power Connections post and splice in a in-line fuse holder. DO NOT install the fuse at this time. 4) Strip 1/2 inch (12.7mm) from the battery end of the power cable and crimp a large ring terminal to the cable. Connect the ring terminal to the positive (+) battery post. 5) Prepare the ground wire for attachment to the amplifier by stripping 5/8” of insulation from the end of the wire, Insert the bare wire into t

25A 25A 25A 25A Connecting Multiple Speakers If you must connect more than one speaker per channel, there are two methods in which to do so: Series or Parallel. Parallel connections are harder on the amplifier than series connections, as the total impedance is lower compared to driving a single speaker, and the amplifier must produce more current to drive them. The following diagrams show “bridged” connections from the amplifier. For more in depth information on series and parallel speaker

For more wiring options, see the Support section at www.diamondaudio.com. Installing the Remote Level Controller The D3 600.1 and the D3 1000.1 come packaged with a remote level control. This allows you to control the level by attenuating the amplitude or increasing (up to the maximum set-point) of the amplifier’s input gain control. This control does not add additional bass boost, it simply allows you to control the level to suit your tastes. 1) Locate a position in the front of the vehi

Adjustment of Built-In Crossover (All Models) Placing the switch in the HP position sets the amplifier to the High Pass mode, enabling frequencies above the cutoff point to pass. Placing the switch in the LP position sets the amplifier to the Low Pass mode, enabling frequencies below the cutoff point to pass. Placing the switch in the OFF position sets the amplifier to Full Range, preventing any crossover ad- justment. This setting allows ALL frequencies to pass to the sp
