3. Configuració i instal·lació
Una instal·lació correcta és crucial per al rendiment i la longevitat del vostre amplifier. Ensure the vehicle's battery is disconnected before beginning installation.
Muntatge del Ampmés viu
Choose a mounting location that is dry, well-ventilated, and secure. Avoid mounting in direct sunlight or near heat sources. Ensure sufficient space around the ampLificador per a la circulació d'aire.

Connexions de cablejat
All wiring should be of appropriate gauge and securely connected. Loose connections can cause poor performance or damage.
- Power (BATTERY): Connect to the positive (+) terminal of the car battery via an inline fuse (not supplied, typically 50A).
- Ground (GROUND): Connect to a clean, unpainted metal point on the vehicle's chassis. Ensure a solid, low-resistance connection.
- Remot (REMOTE): Connect to the remote turn-on lead from your head unit. This turns the ampencén i apaga l'activador amb el teu estèreo.
- Input (RCA or Speaker Level): Connect your audio source. Use RCA cables for preamp outputs from your head unit, or use the speaker-level inputs if your head unit does not have RCA outputs.
- Sortida de l'altaveu: Connect your subwoofer(s) to the speaker terminals. The MRV-M500 is a monoblock amplifier, designed for single-channel output.

4. Funcionament del Ampmés viu
Engegada inicial
Once all connections are made and verified, reconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal. Turn on your head unit. The blue LED indicator on the amplifier should illuminate, indicating it is powered on.
Ajust dels controls
- Control GAIN: Això ajusta la sensibilitat d'entrada del amplifier to match the output level of your head unit. Start with the gain set to minimum and slowly increase it until the desired volume is achieved without distortion.
- LP FILTER (Low-Pass Filter): This control sets the upper frequency limit for the amplifier's output, ensuring only low frequencies are sent to your subwoofer. Adjust this between 50-400 Hz, typically around 80-120 Hz for most subwoofers.
- BASS EQ (Bass Boost): This control allows you to boost bass output at 50 Hz. Use sparingly to avoid distortion and potential speaker damage. Adjust from 0 to +12 dB.

5. Manteniment
Cura i Neteja
- Regularly inspect all wiring connections for tightness and corrosion.
- Mantenir el ampNetegeu el purificador amb un drap suau i sec. No utilitzeu productes químics agressius ni netejadors abrasius.
- Assegureu-vos el amplifier's heat sink fins are free from dust and debris to maintain proper cooling.
6. Solució De Problemes
Si teniu problemes amb el vostre amplifier, consulteu els següents problemes i solucions habituals:
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Sense alimentació (sense LED) | Fusible fundit, cable d'alimentació/terra/control remot solt, senyal d'encesa del control remot defectuós. | Comproveu el fusible en línia i amplifier fuses. Verify all power, ground, and remote connections are secure and receiving proper voltage. |
| Sense so | Input signal issue, speaker wiring issue, gain too low, head unit settings. | Check RCA or speaker-level input connections. Verify speaker wiring for shorts or open circuits. Increase gain. Check head unit volume and output settings. |
| So distorsionat | Gain set too high, improper LP filter setting, poor ground connection, speaker impedance mismatch. | Reduce gain. Adjust LP filter. Ensure a solid ground connection. Verify speaker impedance is within amprang nominal del carregador (2-4 ohms). |
| Protection Mode (Red LED) | Overheating, speaker short circuit, low voltage, compensació de CC. | Permetre amplifier to cool down. Check speaker wiring for shorts. Verify stable power supply. Disconnect speakers and inputs to isolate the issue. |
