INSTALLATION

Professional installation by an authorized DIAMOND MOTORSPORT SERIES amps dealer is highly recommended! Otherwise,

the performance of your new gear may not satisfactory. In the event that you decide to do your own installation, please read

and follow this manual very carefully. Failure to do so may compromise the integrity of this product, your automobile and

possibly void the product warranty.

WARNING:

Ampliﬁers are generally mounted in the hatch/trunk area of a car or SUV, and under or behind the seat of

most pick up trucks. Select a location that will provide adequate ventilation for the ampliﬁer. Avoid mounting the ampliﬁer

with the ﬁns facing down. The ﬁns should be facing up, either vertically or horizantally. Secure the ampliﬁer with screws

provided.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Before you start, disconnect the negative cable from the car battery. Tape up the end so it is isolated from the battery.

2. Run an appropriate gauge wire from the battery to the ampliﬁer. Plan this of the installation carefully. this cable will carry

very high current. If it should short to the body and it is not properly fused it could catch a ﬁre.

3. Connect the power wire to the battery using a fuse capable of the total current load of all ampliﬁers connected. Don't

install the fuse yet. Wait until the end. Locate the fuse as close as possible to the battery. If the fuse is further than

18 inches (wire length) from the battery you should reevaluate the wire and fuse placement.

4. Find the closest clear metal area to the amp for a ground, sand, grind, or scrape all paint and undercoating from the body

and screw the ground securely in place It is advisable to test the ground with an ohm-meter between the ground cable

cable and the negative battery to cable to insure a good low resistance connection. Some alloys used in modern cars do

not offer the best ground. If you believe this is the case consult with the vehicle manufacturer.

5. Run the speaker wire to the speakers. It is advised that you leave some extra wire at this point.

6. If you haven't already done so, mount the amp now.

7. Connect the power and ground to the ampliﬁer.

Only after this step should you install the fuse at the battery.

8. Connect the remote wire from the head unit to the ampliﬁer. Now is a good time to turn on the amp for the ﬁrst time.

Make sure it turns on properly and does not go into protection.

9. Connect the speaker wires to the amp and speakers (make sure the amp is off ﬁrst). Make sure the polarity (+and-)

is correct.

10. Connect the RCA's to the amp.

11. Double check the ampliﬁer controls at this time. Make sure everything is set correctly for your system.

12. Now you're ready to play it for the ﬁrst time. It is best to leave the gain all the way down at ﬁrst. Start with the head

unit volume low and work your way up.

13. Now you can tune the amp. Take your time and make only one adjustment at a time. It may take some time to get

the system fully adjusted. During this time, the amp is drawing current from the battery. You should check the battery

voltage from time to time and re-charge it if it gets low. That's it. You're done. Now have fun!
