VIBE POWERBOX1000.1-V7 Mono Car Audio Amplifier
Owners Manual Congratulations on purchasing your VIBE amplifier. Please read this manual in order to fully understand how to get the best results from this product and ensure that all advice on how to look after the product is followed. Thank you for buying VIBE, we hope you enjoy listening to your product as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Attention
An aftermarket audio amplifier will place an additional load on the vehicles charging system. Most modern vehicles have sufficient capacity in the charging system as not all the electrical components of the vehicle will be switched on at once. Check the fuse rating of the amplifier and use this as the peak current requirement. Generally the continuous current draw will be a third of the peak current. Warning During the normal use of this amplifier the heatsink may become very hot. Please do not touch during or immediately after use. Please ensure that when installing this product the heatsink will not come into contact with any materials that may be damaged by heat such as upholstery or plastics.

Mounting Guidelines
Your VIBE amplifier is designed with a swift installation routine in mind. Please mount the amplifier in a dry location on a solid surface. NEVER mount the amplifier upside down as this will cause the amplifier to over heat and will eventually damage the amplifier. Before fixing the amplifier in place please ensure that there is sufficient air flow around the exterior of the casing, at least two inches is sufficient to allow effective cooling. Power Connections Low-Level Input High-Level Input NOTE : When using high level input it is not necessary to connect the remote turn on wire. Do not connect both high level and low level input at the same time.
Power Cable
- At least 8 gauge cable should be used for the power connection to the amplifier.
- The power cable should be taken directly from the battery. Rubber grommets should be used when passing through any bulkheads to prevent the cable from becoming chaffed or cut.
- It is vital that a fuse / circuit breaker (of at least equal value to the one fitted in the amplifier) is placed inline with the power cable and is no further than 18 inches away from the battery.
- Please ensure that the fuse is not fitted until the entire installation procedure is complete.
- At least 8 gauge cable should be used for the ground connection to the amplifier.
- The amplifier ground should be connected directly to the chassis of the vehicle, to bare metal.
- The cable length should be kept to an absolute minimum.
- It is not recommended that you connect the ground cable to the vehicles seatbelts anchor point.
- The Powerbox amplifiers feature an auto turn-on a circuit called Autosense.
- This circuit allows the amplifier to switch on and off without a remote turn-on wire when using high-level input, for low-level input (RCA) it will still be necessary to connect the remote turn on wire from the head unit.
- When the connected source (head unit) is turned on the amplifier will turn on automatically, after the connected source (head unit) is turned off the amplifier will shut down.
- Depending on the model number of your amplifier and the number of speakers you wish to power you will have to run either one or two or RCA cables from the source to the amplifier.
- Please take extra care when running these cables from the source to the amplifier. Ensure that they are placed away from all items that can generate any interference, wiring harnesses etc.
- It is recommended that the RCA cables should be run on opposite sides of the car to the previously installed power cables if possible, to avoid the cable picking up interference.
Terminals And Connections
- High level input For connection to the speaker output of your source (head unit). This is to be used if the source (headunit) does not have a low level output.
- Low level output RCA output used to connect an additional amplifier or audio device.
- Low level input For connection to any source (head unit) with a low level output. This is your RCA output from the source (headunit)
- Gain control This control is used to match the input signal of the source to the amplifier. See the setup section for more details.
- Phase control This control is used to set the phase of the amplifier and is adjustable between 0° and 180°.
- Bass boost control This control is used to add bass boost to the amplifier centred at 45Hz and is adjustable between 0 and +12dB
- Remote level control port For connection to the supplied remote level control for the amplifier.
- Subsonic filter frequency control This control is used to set the subsonic filter frequency for channel 5 of the amplifier. The frequency is adjustable between 10Hz and 50Hz.
- Low Pass Filter (LPF) This control is used to set the crossover frequency for the amplifier when LPF is selected. The frequency is adjustable between 30Hz and 150Hz.
- Speaker terminals Used to connect speaker cables to the amplifier. See the wiring configuration section for more details
- Power / protect LED If the amplifier is operating normally, the GREEN LED will illuminate. If the amplifier is in protection mode the RED LED will illuminate.
- Fuse Replace with only the same value ATC fuse : 2 x 30A
- Power terminals Used to connect DC power to the amplifier. See the power connections section for more details

- Fuse Replace with only the same value ATC fuse : 3 x 40A
- Power terminals Used to connect DC power to the amplifier. See the power connections section for more details
Set-Up Section
To correctly set the gain control of the amplifier to match that of the source (headunit) use the following setup routine:
- Turn the gain control to minimum on the amplifier.
- Ensure the bass boost is set to 0 dB. Set all crossovers on the headunt ( if applicable) to flat and both bass and treble to zero.
- Turn up the source (headunit) to approx 3/4 volume.
- Very slowly turn up the gain on the amplifier until distortion can be heard in any of the speakers or until the volume reaches an uncomfortable listening level when this is reached turn the gain control down slightly.
