Configuração e instalação
Antes de começar
- Desconecte o terminal negativo da bateria do veículo.
- Planeje o trajeto da fiação para evitar interferências e garantir o comprimento adequado.
- Choose a mounting location that provides adequate ventilation and is secure.
Montagem do subwoofer
Secure the subwoofer using the provided mounting brackets and anti-vibration pads. Ensure the unit is firmly attached to a solid surface to prevent movement. Allow sufficient space around the unit for heat dissipation.
Conexões de fiação
Follow these steps for proper wiring. Refer to the 'Controls and Connections' image for visual guidance.
- Conexão de energia (+12V): Connect the +12V terminal on the subwoofer to the vehicle's positive battery terminal. An in-line fuse (not included, but highly recommended) should be installed as close to the battery as possible.
- Conexão de aterramento (GND): Connect the GND terminal to a clean, unpainted metal surface on the vehicle chassis. Ensure a solid, low-resistance connection.
- Ativação remota (REM): Connect the REM terminal to the remote turn-on output of your head unit. This wire signals the subwoofer to turn on and off with your car's audio system. If your head unit lacks a dedicated remote output, you may use an ignition-switched 12V source, or utilize the high-level input's auto-sense feature if available.
- Entrada de áudio:
- Entrada RCA: If your head unit has RCA pre-outs, connect RCA cables from the head unit to the subwoofer's RCA inputs.
- Entrada de alto nível: If your head unit does not have RCA outputs, use the provided high-level input adapter to connect directly to your vehicle's speaker wires.
Operando o subwoofer
Initial Setup and Gain Adjustment
- Após todas as conexões estarem feitas, reconecte o terminal negativo da bateria do veículo.
- Ligue o sistema de som do seu carro.
- Set the subwoofer's GAIN control to its minimum position.
- Play music with strong bass content at a moderate volume level from your head unit.
- Slowly increase the GAIN control on the subwoofer until the desired bass level is achieved without any audible distortion. If distortion occurs, reduce the gain slightly.
Controles de ajuste
- Ganhar controle: Ajusta a sensibilidade de entrada para corresponder ao volume de saída.tage of your head unit. Proper gain setting is crucial for optimal performance and to prevent distortion.
- LOW-PASS CROSSOVER (X-OVER): This control sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer, typically adjustable from 50Hz to 150Hz. Frequencies above this setting will be filtered out, ensuring the subwoofer only reproduces low-frequency sounds. Adjust this to blend smoothly with your main speakers.
- Interruptor de FASE (0°/180°): This switch adjusts the phase of the subwoofer's output relative to your main speakers. Experiment with both 0° and 180° settings to find the one that provides the most impactful and cohesive bass response in your vehicle.
- AUMENTO DE BAIXO: Provides an adjustable bass enhancement (+0-12dB) at a specific low frequency. Use this control sparingly to add extra punch to your bass. Excessive use can lead to distortion.
- VB BASS: Toggles the Virtual Bass Enhancement DSP on or off. Activate it for an enhanced low-frequency perception, making the bass sound fuller.
Controle remoto com fio
The included wired remote allows for convenient, on-the-fly adjustment of the bass level from the driver's seat. Connect the remote to the "REMOTE" port on the subwoofer. This control only adjusts the bass level and does not affect other tuning settings.
