Mounting
The amplifier has to have at least 5 cm (2″) ventilation space at all sides, to allow the heat to rise away from the amplifier. To avoid the risk of malfunction, make sure that power and signal cables are connected securely to the amplifier cables. Don’t place the power- and signal cables together to reduce any noises and make sure that connections are placed so they can’t get wet.
The amplifier is rated IPX6, but we highly recommend to place the amplifier so
that it is protected from exposure to large amounts of water or rain and
direct sunlight.
Always make sure the amplifier is securely mounted on a flat surface and
doesn’t come loose due to vibration.
Installation
Remember to always disconnect battery ground before working on a
boat/vehicle’s electrical system!
Always place a fuse (20A) or circuit breaker no more than 30 cm (12″) from the
battery, for optimal protection.
Getting your power started
-
First, the +12V terminal is connected directly to the battery of your boat/vehicle.
Use a cable of at least 10 mm2, and make sure that the connectors are of the same value.
– Don’t forget the “Vehicle protection” fuse (20A).
– The +12V terminal should NOT be connected to the fuse box of the boat/vehicle. -
Second, the ground terminal (GND) must be fastened securely to the negative pole of the battery with the same mm2 cable as the positive cable (the same amount of power has to run through it). In case of a boat; do never connect it to the chassis.
-
Third, the last cable to connect is your remote turn-on (REM). Many head units have an output terminal for connection of the REM of an amplifier. If you don’t have such an output, a separate switch must be installed to control your amplifiers on/off function.
Signal Input
- Connect the RCA-outputs of your head unit to the RCA input terminals of the amplifier. Take good care that you connect the Right output of your head unit to a Righi input of your amplifier, and that you connect the Left output of your head unit to a Left input of your amplifier. Make sure that the connectors are placed so they can’t get wet.
- The Caliber Marine amplifiers feature a built-in variable crossover which allows you to fine-tune your amplifiers response as you like ii. Either for the Full Range sound, in which case the HPF-FLAT-LPF switch remains in its FLAT position, or you can specifically select the High-Pass-Filter (HPF) or Low-Pass-Filter (LPF) to adjust to your speakers requirements. The built-in variable crossover can be adjusted in a range from 40Hz – 400Hz.
Amplifier adjustments
- Put the input level adjustment knob to the minimum.
- Put the volume of your radio to 3/4 of the maximum.
- Now adjust the input level of the front channel. Slowly turn up the input level and listen carefully until you hear the amplifier begin to distort. A Caliber Amplifier “clips” very softly, so this can sometimes be a difficult adjustment.
