Important

Allow air circulation around the amplifier.

The XA4150 amplifier’s compact design allows greater flexibility in mounting. It can be mounted under a seat or in the trunk.

When selecting a location, remember that amplifiers generate heat. Select a location where air can circulate around the amplifier. Do not cover the XA4150 with carpets or enclose it behind interior trim panels. Do not mount the amplifier in an inverted or upside down configuration. Every installation will be a bit different based upon vehicle design. Check all locations and placements carefully before making any cuts or connections.

Important

If wiring connections are made wrong, the unit will not operate properly and it could be damaged. Follow the installation instructions carefully, or have the installation handled by an experienced technician.

Professional Tip

Amplifier Installation Kit

Your installation job will be much easier if you purchase an amplifier installation kit. These kits often include low-level RCA cables, extra large power and ground wires, a fuse or circuit breaker and connector for the battery.
