Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
Amps should be mounted in a location with adequate ventilation to allow for cooling. Do not mount the amplifier in the engine compartment, areas with excessive moisture, or directly onto a subwoofer box where vibration could cause damage.
ZAPCO strongly recommends using pure copper (OFC) wire rather than Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA). CCA wire has lower conductivity and can cause voltage drops, overheating, and corrosion at connection points.
Software and firmware updates can be downloaded from the specific product page or support section of the ZAPCO website. Connect your DSP to a PC via USB to perform calibration and updates.
Yes, many ZAPCO amplifiers support bridging. For example, on specific models, you can bridge channels to drive a single speaker, provided the minimum impedance (often 4Ω for bridged mode) is respected. Consult your specific model's manual for phase and wiring instructions.
