XPR510D INSTALLATION / OWNER'S MANUAL Mobile Power Amplifiers
Preparation Please read entire manual before installation. Due to the technical nature of amplifiers, it is highly recommended that your Dual amplifier is installed by a professional installer or an authorized dealer. Before You Start • Disconnect negative battery terminal. (consult a qualified technician for instructions) • Avoid installing the amplifier where it would be subject to high temperatures, such as from direct sunlight, or where it would be subject to dust, dirt or excessive vibration.
Connection Descriptions Note: Be sure to follow specific instructions included with your amplifier installation kit (not included with this amplifier). The information below should be used a general guideline only. Power Wire (BAT+) • Disconnect negative battery terminal before proceeding. Consult a qualified technician for instructions if you are unsure. • Plan wire routing before cutting any wires to length. Begin by routing the power +12V wire from the battery to the amplifier location.

See page 6 for additional details. Main Power Connections Connect +12V, GND and REM wires accordingly. A suitable fuse MUST be installed on the +12V lead within 18" of the battery for protection of the vehicle’s electrical system.
Amplifier Connections Speaker Connections Connect speaker wires observing polarity. The XPR510D is a 1 channel amplifier but has two positive and two negative speaker terminals. When connecting one subwoofer, only use one positive and one negative terminal. When connecting two subwoofers, connect one subwoofer to each set of positive and negative terminals. When connecting one subwoofer, 2 ohms is the minimum load.
Connecting Two Amplifiers - Bridge Mode The XPR510D features an Amplifier Bridge mode, where two XPR510D amplifiers can be connected together. When two XPR510D amplifiers are connected together, the power from both amplifiers is combined. 2 OHM MINIMUM (-) (+) Amplifier 1 Amplifier 1 Amplifier 2 Amplifier 2 Signal Connections Speaker Connections Signal Connections • Connect RCA cables from the head unit to the LINE INPUTS of Amplifier #1.
Configuration/Setup Gain The gain control is used to obtain the best possible match between the head unit audio output and the amplifier input. • Begin by turning the input level control fully counterclockwise. • Next, turn up the head unit volume control around 3/4 of the way up. • Adjust the input level control clockwise until audible distortion is heard, then slightly counterclockwise to provide the best match. • Repeat for all input level controls.
