Installation Warnings

1. Ensure the +12V lead is disconnected from the battery before you

connect any new equipment

2. Ensure that the amplier mounting location and holes will not interfere

with the petrol tank, brake lines or electrical wiring.

3. Ensure the amplier is securely fastened to the vehicle to prevent the

amplier moving and causing damage in the event of an accident

4. Ensure all wiring is protected from sharp objects and from pinching or

crushing which could result in damage to the audio system

5. Ensure the mounting location has sufcient air ow around the

amplier. If the amplier is mounted in an enclosed space a 3” fan

with ducting should be used to assist with cooling.

6. Do not mount any amplier on a subwoofer enclosure as extended

exposure to vibration may cause damage to the amplier.

7. Ensure the minimum recommended gauge wire/cable or larger for all

amplier connections

8. Appropriate mounting is very important for prolonged life

expectancy of any amplier. Select a location that provides

protection from moisture. Keep in mind that an amplier should never

be mounted upside down. Upside down mounting will compromise

heat dissipation through the heat sink and could engage the thermal

protection circuit.

Z-Series Ampliers

Connection

Ensure the audio system is turned off before making any connections to the

amplier, speakers or source unit. Failure to do so could result in permanent

damage to the audio system.

Ensure the correct gauge cable is used for all connections; consult the cable

calculator diagram below for the correct gauge cable for your installation.

The above chart shows cable gauges to be used, if no less than a 0.5 volt drop is accept-

able. If aluminium wire is used, the gauges should be of an even larger size to compen-

sate. Cable gauge size calculation takes into account terminal connection resistance.

Z150.2 - Z300.4 - Z300.1 - Z600.5 1. +12Volt Power

Ensure ALL other cable connections are

completed before connecting this cable to the

battery. PHOENIX GOLD ampliers should be

connected directly to the 12v battery terminal

using the appropriate gauge cable. Start at the

vehicles battery and run the cable through to

the amplier. PHOENIX GOLD recommends the

use of rubber grommets when passing any ca-

ble through metal panels to avoid sharp corners

or panels that could cut through the insulation

of the cable. An inline fuse or circuit breaker

MUST be used within 30cm (12”) of your battery;

this will prevent the potential

risk of a re caused by a short in your power cable (see specications table for

recommended inline fuse/circuit breaker ratings). Connect the other end of your power

cable to the battery, but remember to leave the fuse out or circuit breaker off until all

other cable connections are made.

2. Remote Turn-On

This connection turns the amplier on and should be connected to the ‘Remote Turn on’

wire from the Head Unit. If one is not available a switched +12v source must be used, such

as a power antenna wire or ACC +12v.

If you are using high level (speaker) inputs and a remote turn on wire is not available, then

instead the ‘Auto Turn-On’ switch must be set to ON

3. Ground

Connect the Ground/Earth cable for your amplier rst. Ensure that the location is a good

source of ground (preferably the chassis/oor pan). Investigate the area you wish to use

to ensure it is free of wiring, vacuum lines, brake and fuel lines. Use either a wire brush or

sandpaper to expose bare metal, this will provide a high current contact for your ground

connection. Use the same gauge cable for the ground cable as you did for the power

cable. Secure the ground cable to the ground point with a bolt, star washer and nut.

Apply some neutral cure silicon to the bolt and bare metal to prevent possible water

leaks and rust. Connect the other end of your ground cable to the amplier.

4. Speaker Output Connection

(Z300.4 - Z150.2 - Z600.5)

Ensure the correct polarity is observed when

connecting speakers/subwoofers.

2 Ohm minimum speaker impedance for stereo

operation (per channel).

4 Ohm minimum speaker impedance for bridged

operation.

4B. Internally Linked Output (Z300.1 ONLY)

The Z300.1 Monoblock amplier provides dual output

connections to simplify wiring when using 2 subwoofers

or a dual voice coil subwoofer. Both positive and

negative terminals and internally connected or linked

in parallel. For dual coil (2 x 4ohm) or two single coil

(4 ohm) subwoofers connect each coil to positive or

negative terminal. For a standard single coil subwoofer

connect to either positive and either negative terminal.

5. RCA Inputs Front-Rear-Subwoofer

Choose the correct length RCA cables to connect the RCA outputs of the source/head unit, to the

input connectors of the amplier. Run the RCA cables on the opposite side of the vehicle. to the power cable and

vehicle wiring loom. Avoid the electric fan motor and wiring. Ensure you follow the correct balance. (L LEFT = White or

Black. R Right = Red)

6. Low Level RCA outputs (Z300.1 + Z1000.1 only)

Use these RCA connectors to connect to a secondary amplier. This output is a pass-thru connection from the RCA

input connectors so that the signal level and frequency response is the same as the original input signal.

7. Gain/Level Control (Sub/Front/Rear)

This control is used to match the input level of the amplier to the output level of your

head unit. We recommend the method below, as failure to follow these steps may

damage the audio system.

1. Turn the amplier Gain to zero

2. Turn the volume of the head unit to ¾ and the bass and treble to zero

3. Adjust the amplier Gain/Level control until the desired maximum volume is

achieved without distortion.

4. Make ne adjustments to tune your install.

8. High Pass Crossover Filter

Set the crossover switch to HP and turn this control to 65Hz or above when using

speaker’s smaller than 6 x 9”. When a subwoofer is used in the system, this feature is

designed to lter out all low bass frequencies that only subwoofers should produce. See

specication table for adjustable frequency range

9. Low Pass Crossover Filter

Ensure the crossover frequency is set at 100Hz or below. This feature must be used with

a subwoofer to lter out all mid to high frequencies that only full range speakers should

produce. See specication table for adjustable frequency range

10. Crossover Switch

Full - This setting is for large speakers (e.g. 6 X 9”) or speakers when a sub

woofer is not included in the system. The amplied audio signal is not ltered

so the full range audio signal is sent to the speakers.

Low - This setting is used when using a subwoofer and will only allow

frequencies below the low pass lter setting to pass through.

High - Used to run mid-range speakers when a spearate subwoofer is

connected. This etting will only allow frequencies above the set high pass lter

setting to pass through.

11. Subsonic Filter (Z300.1 + Z1000.1)

This is a variable control that lters out all subsonic bass frequencies below the set point.

These are frequencies that are not audible. These frequencies can damage

subwoofers. See specication table for adjustable frequency range.

12. Bass Boost (Z300.1 + Z1000.1)

This control adjusts the bass boost at 45Hz, from 0 to +18dB. Start from 0 and slowly

increase to the desired level. Use this control with extreme care as failure to do so may

result in damage to the subwoofers.

13. Remote Bass Controller Port

This connection should be used with the optional remote control

(ZRBC - sold separately) to adjust the bass level from any location within the vehicle.

Z-Series Ampliers

Z150.2 - Z300.1 - Z300.4 - Z600.5 - Z1000.1

14. Input Voltage

This function switches the amplier input between Low level (RCA

cable) and High level (speaker wire) connection. Where possible

RCA (Low Level) connections are preferable.

High

The High setting is selected when the Phoenix Gold High

Level adaptor (sold separately) is used to connect a full range signal

from the source (head) unit speaker

connections to the amplier. Simply connect the speaker wires to the

input connections observing polarity and then connect the PHOENIX

GOLD ZRHC to the RCA inputs on the Amplier.

Low

The Low setting is for RCA connection from the source (head) unit to the

amplier. Connect the RCA interconnects to the appropriate Line Out

connectors on the source head unit and connect to the RCA inputs of the

Amplier. This is the preferred installation method, as this provides a higher

quality audio signal.

15. Auto Turn-On

Auto Turn on switch = 12V

If you are using a 12V switched supply to the remote terminal of the amplier this switch

should be in the off position. If you are not using a switched supply and the amplier is

connected to high level inputs this switch should be in the on position

16. Power / Protect LED

1. When illuminated Green, indicates normal operation. Amplier is powered on with no

faults detected

2. When illuminated Red, indicates the amplier is in protection mode / fault state. See

troubleshooting section on the next page.

17. Phase (Z1000.1 ONLY)

This adjusts the phase of the subwoofer relative to the rest of the system. 0-180º

18. RMD (Z1000.1 ONLY)

Use this port to connect to the optional Remote Voltage Display (RMD-1)
