DESIGN FEATURES
INSTALLATION
1. Cast Aluminum Heatsink The cast aluminum heatsink of the Punch amplifier dissipates heat generated by the amplifi-
er's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% improvement of cooling over conventional extrusion
heatsink designs.
2.
Gain Control The input gain control is preset to match the output of most source units. It can be adjusted to match
output levels from a variety of source units.
3.
Variable Crossover The amplifiers have a built-in 12dB/octave Butterworth filter with a crossover point variable from
50Hz to 250Hz. The crossover can be set to Low-Pass (LP) or it can be bypassed by setting it to Full Range (FULL).
4. RCA Input Jacks The industry standard RCA jacks provide an easy connection for signal level input. They are gold-plat-
ed to resist the signal degradation caused by corrosion.
5.
LED Power Indicator The LED illuminates when the unit is turned on.
6. REM Terminal This spade terminal is used to remotely turn-on and turn-off the amplifier when +12V DC is applied.
7. Power Terminals The power and ground connectors on the Punch amplifier are gold-plated and will accommodate up
to 8 AWG wire maximizing the input current capability of the amplifier.
8.
Punch Bass The Punch Bass control helps correct for acoustical deficiencies in the listening environment by helping
produce full range sound without adding excessive boost.. The Punch Bass control is a narrow band adjustment at 45Hz
variable from 0dB to + 18dB. Connection is made with a cable using RJ-45 and can be installed under the dash for
remote control access.
9.
RCA Pass-Thru Jacks The Pass-Thru provides a convenient source for daisy-chaining an additional amplifier without
running an extra set of RCA cables from the front of the vehicle to the rear amplifier location.
10.
Speaker Terminals The heavy duty, gold-plated terminal block connectors (+ and ) will accept wire sizes from 8 AWG
to 18 AWG. These gold-plated connectors are immune to corrosion that can cause signal deterioration.
