2.3 SPEAKER IMPEDANCE & POWER WIRE INFO

The heat dissipation capacity of this amplifier has been designed to cope with very low impedance loads.

However, EMPHASER laboratories recommend to stay at or above the suggested impedance ratings

listed below:

EA13000SPL

➡ 1 ohms mono

2 x EA13000SPL in Master/Slave configuration

➡ 2 ohms mono

Note: EMPHASER laboratories recommend a minimum main power cable cross-section (5m total

length) of 50 mm², when the amp is intended to be operated at full output power for prolonged

periods of time.

These recommendations guarantee trouble-free operation of your amplifier, giving you full power

output.

3. AMPLIFIER MOUNTING

Attention! For your own safety, disconnect the positive battery terminal (+12V)

or remove the main fuse in the positive power cable near the car battery, before

you start any wiring work!

Before you proceed to install this EMPHASER amplifier, it is recommended to map out the complete

audio system and the respective wiring required. Consider all additional electrical requirements and

accessories, such as power cables, interconnect cables etc., to complete this install. Please note that

- because of possible interference problems with the existing car electrics and electronics - especially

the routing of the signal cables and the chassis ground connection will have a profound impact on the

trouble-free (noise free!) operation of the amplifier.

The mounting location should be carefully selected and in the interest of passive driver and passenger

safety, the amplifier must be securely mounted. Make sure that there is no wiring harness, fuel tank

etc. behind or below the mounting surface, that may be damaged by the drilling of the holes for the

amplifier mounting screws. After installation, there should be a clearance of at least 5cm to all sides

including the top of the amplifier heatsink. Make sure the unit is not exposed to direct sunlight, humid

ity, water, oil or spill of other fluids that may enter the amplifier.

Once the location where the amplifier will be mounted is defined, use the unit as a template for the

marking of the mounting holes with pencil or felt-tip marker. The mounting holes should be pilot-drilled,

using a 2,5mm or 3mm drill bit. For the actual mounting, always use the supplied rubber washers

before attaching the amp to the panel with the supplied mounting screws.

Important! There must not be a direct contact of the amplifier heatsink, bottom

panel or other metal parts to the vehicle chassis ground! Electrical ground-loops

can result in audible hum!
