[. . . ] When drilling holes, you must always make sure that none of the vehicle components (e. When choosing an installation location, you should select one which is dry and which provides sufficient air circulation to cool the amplifier. Use cable grommets to protect cables against sharp-edged holes. Use loudspeakers with an impedance of 1-4 . [. . . ] We provide a manufacturer guarantee for our products bought within the European Union. You can view the guarantee conditions at www. De or ask for them directly at: Blaupunkt GmbH Hotline Robert-Bosch-Str. 200 D-31139 Hildesheim You can also obtain further information on our Velocity series on the Internet at http://www. Note: In the case of longer supply lines to the vehicle battery, a second battery can be installed alongside the amplifier in order to stabilise the voltage. The amplifier is suitable for connection to car audio systems that are equipped with RCA connections. If you want to connect it to car audio systems that are equipped with an ISO connection, please use the Blaupunkt ISO-RCA adapter. Usage options and loudspeaker connection: Burning Desire II Max power 4 ohms Max power 2 ohms Max Power 1 ohm RMS power 4 ohms RMS power 2 ohms RMS power 1 ohm Frequency response Total harmonic distorsion Input impedance Signal-to-noise ratio Input sensitivity Low pass filter Bass boost Subsonic filter Dimensions WxHxD (mm), . Please use high-quality Velocity RCA cables for this connection. preamp OUTPUT Outputs for connecting a second amplifier (formation of chains of amplifiers). Please also use high-quality Velocity RCA cables for this connection. cONFIG switch (LP/FLAT , LP/LP , FLAT/FLAT , see Fig. 7) Before installation, adjust the position of the CONFIG switch on the power amplifier in order to set the frequency coverage of the signal that is sent to the loudspeakers and the RCA output jacks. LP/LP position: In this switch position, the bass range that is limited by the crossover frequency control (LP FREQ) is sent to the subwoofer as well as to the RCA OUTPUT. FLAT/FLAT position: In this switch position, the frequency coverage up to 450 Hz is used for the loudspeaker, and the frequency coverage that is predetermined by the car radio is used for the RCA OUTPUT. Note: The SUBSONIC filter and BASS BOOST control do not have any function in this position. Crossover frequency control (LP FREQ) If the crossover is activated (LP/FLAT or LP/LP) by adjusting the position of the CONFIG switch, you can then use the LP-FREQ control to adjust the crossover frequency of the filter anywhere between 40 Hz and 300 Hz. Settings for a subwoofer In order to obtain the best sound when a subwoofer is connected, the subwoofer must only be fed with low frequencies, i. Firstly, turn down the GAIN control on the Burning Desire II to minimum and set the LP-FREQ control to its centre position. Now play some music on your car sound system that you are very familiar with and that contains some low bass (e. Now slowly increase the volume of the subwoofer by turning the GAIN control on the subwoofer amplifier in a clockwise direction until you feel that the sound of the music is well balanced, i. The bass is neither too weak nor overpowering. [. . . ] Securely screw a standard 25 mm2 negative cable to an interference-free ground connection point (bolt connected to the car body, car body sheet metal) - though do not connect it to the negative terminal of the battery. Scratch the surface down to the bare metal at the point at which the ground contact is made and apply graphite grease. 4/5/6 GAIN control You can use the GAIN control to adjust the input sensitivity of the Velocity power amplifier to the output voltage of your car radio's preamp output. When connecting a car radio produced by another manufacturer, you must adjust the input sensitivity in accordance with the information provided by the manufacturer. [. . . ]
