INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING

AMPLIFIER LOCATION

The Human Reign Unleashed amplifiers employ highly efficient circuitry and a custom-engineered heat sink to maintain lower operating temperatures. Additional cooling may be required if the amplifier is located in a tightly confined area or when driving especially low impedance loads at extremely high levels.

When mounting the amplifier, it should be securely mounted to either a panel in the vehicle or an amp board or rack that is securely mounted to the vehicle. The mounting location should be either in the passenger compartment or in the trunk of the vehicle, away from moisture, stray or moving objects, and major electrical components. To provide adequate ventilation, mount the amplifier so that there are at least two inches of freely circulating air above and to the sides of it.

MOUNTING THE AMPLIFIER

a.Using the amplifier as a template, mark the holes on the mounting surface.

b.Remove the amplifier and drill the holes for the mounting screws.

c.Secure the amplifier to the mounting surface using the supplied hardware.

WIRING

a.Run and connect the audio signal and remote turn-on cables from to the amplifier from the source unit, equalizer or preamp.

b.Carefully run the positive cable from the amplifier to the fuse or circuit breaker within 18” of the battery.

c.Connect the fuse or circuit breaker lead to the battery. Leave the circuit breaker off or the fuse out until everything is bolted down.

d.Secure the ground cable to a solid chassis ground on the vehicle. It is necessary to sand paint down to raw metal for a good connection.

e.Double check each and every connection!

f.Re-connect the fuse or circuit breaker.

POWER UP

Power up the system, there may be a 2-3 second delay from the time the source unit is turned on to the time that the amplifier turns on, which is normal. Once the amplifier LED is on and the source unit is playing, you should have sound coming from the speakers.
