Excessive heat will occur, causing the amplifier to go into thermal protection. The circuit may sustain permanent damage and protection/clip lights won't turn off or flash sequentially. the AMPLIFIER can't be strapped/bridged. Protection may also be caused by the following *input voltage from headunit being too high / low / power supply voltage too high / low. *speaker overload *short circuit *caution, speaker outputs will have rail voltage even after the amplifier has been turned off for a while! Do not short the connections! Measure with a DMM (Multi meter) prior to making any changes to the speaker wires. *full output power according to the spec is based on a sufficient electrical supply system. if your system is inadequate, the efficiency of the amplifier decreases hurting the performance! the RAGE 5000 will need a dedicated agm battery supply of min 350 ah and 6000 cca. If you are using a common lithium source of 6c, a 100 Ah lithium battery will suffice. 3 Panel layout input output 40Hz 10KHz / remote speaker output remote level control port Connection of external level controller with clipsensor and voltmeter. Caution, it is not a volume knob and shall be adjusted in accordance with the amplifiers gain. input RCA signal input from the source unit. Use a signal of min 0.2 V to max 5 V to ensure proper operation. Gain (5v~0.2v) Adjusts signal input voltage from the input source to match the amplifiers input stage. 5V ~ 0.2V is the voltage range. Sudden voltage spikes or voltages beyond the above may cause errors or damages to the input section. Eventually the amplifier can go into protect. It is advisable to use a low (< 1V) input if the amplifier is driven into a low ohm load. HPf (12 db/oct) Variable high pass crossover from 15 Hz to 500 Hz. It is highly recommended to set it according to the tuning of your loudspeakers enclosure / t/s parameters to avoid unnecessary strain to your sound system. LPF (12 db/oct) Variable low pass crossover from 40 Hz to 10 KHz. If used with the HPF, it will create a bandpass configuration of the crossover. The frequencies within that setting is BPF. Bass boost / Freq Level control with 0~12 dB. Any level of more than 3 dB is not advisable. It can lead to a highly clipped signal, which can damage your sepakers. Use it with caution and set your gain correctly. speaker output 4 pin layout speaker terminal. Each pair is internally bridged. Do not attempt to bridge externally. The minimum load is 1 . Any connection below 1 is not warranted. The amp can't be strapped or bridged in any way either. This circuit design will have a high output voltage on BOTH speaker terminals, even after the amplifier has been shut of for a while. For any connections or changes in configuration, do measure if voltage is still present prior to doing so. This will avoid potential shorted circuits. 4 Power terminals REM out for ext ernal devices 500 power terminal GND (Ground connection) Connects to the vehicle's chassis. Keep as short as possible (< 20" / 50 cm). Use minimum 0AWG cable for optimal operation. out (remote output) Switched remote output for additional devices such as amplifiers, signal processors etc. +12v (Power connection) Connects to the positivie terminal of the battery. For specified performance 0AWG cable is required. Fuses shall be placed within 8" / 20 cm of the battery. Rem (remote input) Switched remote input connection 16 V 5 Installation Installation considerations If you choose to install the amplifier by yourself, please read the entire owner's manual carefully. Before you start your installation, please take all steps into consideration. If in doubt, please go to www.b2audio.com for authorized distributors / dealers that will be able to configure your set up & ensure the warranty of your amplifier. Preparation Disconnect the negative (-) battery cable before mounting or making any connection. Check the battery & alternator ground (-) connection. Make sure they are properly connected/dimensioned & free of corrosion. Before selecting a mounting location for the amplifier, please take cooling & safety into consideration. Avoid areas with excessive vibration & up side down installation! In order to avoid excessive heat from the amplifier, it is recommended to find a mounting location that allows for vertical positioning of the heatsink fins. For safety purposes, install the amplifier in a dry and well ventilated location and make sure no cables or other harness of the car is interfaced with the mounting location or will present a hazard to the car's cable, control cables, fuel lines/tanks, hydraulic lines or other components of the vechicle. Route the RCA cables away from high current wires, if possible run RCA, Power and Speaker cables individually and with a good distance from each other. Power connectors 12V (Power connection) Before mounting the amplifier, disconnect the negative (-) wire from the battery to protect any accidental damage to the amplifier or the audio system. The amplifiers are equipped with 0 AWG power & ground terminals. It is crucial that all terminals are used with the adequate cable to ensure correct operation. Connect the power cables to the power terminal labeled as +12V. The amplifier is not equipped with fuses, so external fuses are required at both the battery and the amplifer. Connect one end of the fuse holder to the power cable and the other end of the fuse holder to the positive battery terminal within 8'' /20 cm of the same cable. The same shall be done at the other end of the cable that connects to the amplifier. The fuses will protect the system and the vehicle against the possibility of a short circuit in the power cable. Make sure that the fuses and the fuse holder is according to the system requirements. GND (Ground connection) Locate a secure grounding connection as close as possible to the amplifier. Make sure the location is clean and provides a direct electrical connection to the chassis of the vehicle. Connect one end of an equal sized cable as the positive cable to the location of ground. It is important that the ground cable is as short as possible, but no longer than 20'' / 50 cm at maximum. Run one end of the cable to the grounding point. Run the other end of the cable to the mounting location. Connect the ground cable to the terminals labeled as GND. REM ( REMOTE CONNECTION ) Run a remote turn on cable from the switched +12 V source. This may be a toggle switch, a relay, the source unit's remote ouput cable or power antenna trigger cable. Connect the remote turn on cable to the power terminal labeled as REM. The REM out terminal is mainly intended for connection of another amplifier ran in a chain, but it can also be used for other units. INPUT (RCA CABLE) Run the RCA cables away from the high current cables / speaker cables and connect to the amplifier. Use high qualtity cables with a secure grounding point to avoid amplifier malfunction and / or alternator whine. 6 speaker connection input output 40Hz 10KHz / remote speaker output Speaker impedance 1 Ohm ~ 8 Ohm will reach thermal at a faster rate & will eventually go into protect. Impedance load under 1 ohm is not warranted! We recommend using minumum 8 Ga speaker cables to acquire the intended performance & efficiency. Run the speaker cables from your speakers to the amplifier's mounting location. Ensure these are ran separately and away from high current cables and if possible the RCA cables as well. In all cases where cables are penetrating the vechile's chassis use grommets to protect the cable. Connect the speaker wires according to the terminals on the speaker(s). Strip 3/8'' / 1 cm of insulation of the end of each cable and twist the cable strands together tightly. Make sure there are no stray strands that could touch other cables or terminals as it can cause a short circut. Crimp spade plugs over the end of the cable or tin the ends with solder to provide a solid terminal. Connect the cable ends to the amplifier as shown in the diagram. Note, the amplifier's speaker terminals are internally bridged. CAUTION Installation of the amplifier shall be done in the following steps: 1. Connect the +12V wire, keep in mind this wire has to be fused at the battery as well. 2. Ensure the ground is appropriate, then connect it to the amplifier. 3. Connect the switched remote. 4. Reattach negative wire (ground) to the battery. 5. Operation over 16V will cause the amplifier to go into protect & can void the warranty! 7 troubleshooting amplifier doesn't turn on protection led is lit once the amplifier is turned on fuse blowing 9.5 V ~ 16 overheating audio output insufficient - distorted sound turn on thump high hiss - alternator whine 8
