[. . . ] If not installed by an authorized dealer, Directed Audio power amplifiers are covered by a one-year, parts-andlabor limited warranty. Be sure to retain your original sales receipt and refer to the warranty section of this guide for full details about your coverage.

LIMITED TWO-YEAR CONSUMER WARRANTY
Directed Electronics, Inc. promises to the original purchaser, to replace this product should it prove to be defective in workmanship or material under normal use, for a period of two years from the date of purchase by the dealer as indicated by the date code marking of the product PROVIDED the product was installed by an authorized Directed dealer. [. . . ] For low impedance speaker applications or restricted ventilation installations, an external cooling fan may be advisable. Battery and ground connections to the vehicle should be made with crimped ring terminals of the appropriate size (surface area is what counts); soldering the terminals after crimping is also recommended.
10. Due to the high-frequency MOSFET switching power supply, filtering the power cable is not generally required (remember that the amp can't deliver full output if the power supply is restricted). Proper grounding of the signal source is mandatory for the amplifier to reach its performance peak. If the RCA inputs are not grounded adequately via the signal source, electrical noise from the vehicle may be picked up in the system.

FRONT PANEL CONNECTIONS/CONTROLS
1. RCA Input Jacks - Accepts line level outputs from head units or signal processors at voltages between 150mV and 7. 5 volts. RCA Line Output Jacks - These pass through RCA jacks can be used to send the input signal to a second amplifier. Slave/Master Switch (D1200/D2400 only) - Controls whether the amplifier is a slave or master when connected in combined amplifier configurations. Gain Control - Controls the amplifier's sensitivity and is used to match the input level of the amplifier to the output level of the signal source. Subsonic Switch - The subsonic filter attenuates frequencies below 30Hz by 24dB per octave. Bass EQ Switch - Adds 8dB of bass boost to the subwoofer when selected. (Refer to Parallel Synced Gain section of this guide for amplifier and speaker connection diagrams. )
In this master/slave combination the master amplifier pre-amp controls remain active and the slave amplifier pre-amp is bypassed. This allows the master amplifier to control gain, filter, and sub-level on both amplifiers. This combination allows the amplifiers to drive common subwoofer loads while being synced together via an out-of-phase audio pre-amp signal from the master amplifier. Make sure that each amplifier sees the same speaker impedance.
WARNING: The amplifier's gain control is bypassed completely in SLAVE mode. Do NOT move the MASTER/SLAVE switch to SLAVE position when the amplifier is connected and playing. Do NOT connect any signal source to the amplifier in SLAVE mode that exceeds 200mV.
3. Phase Switch - Set the phase switches of all synced amps to the same position (all at 0° or all at 180°).

NOTE:
The dual + and -- sub-out terminals of the D1200/D2400 are paralleled internally and the combined load impedance should be taken into consideration when connecting multiple subwoofers.

EXTERNAL SYNCED BRIDGED CONNECTIONS/SETTINGS
1. Input Signal - Connect these RCA jacks as described in the Front Panel Connection section of this guide. Slave/Master Switch Set the slave/master switch on the master amplifier to the MASTER position. Set the slave/master switch on the slave amplifier to the SLAVE position. Setting the slave/master switch on both amplifiers will automatically set the I/O RCA jack configuration according to each amplifiers slave or master designation.
NOTE: Amplifiers in this combination can only be connected in matched pairs. [. . . ] (Refer to the Parallel Synced Gain or the External Synced Bridged section of this guide for amplifier and speaker connection descriptions. )

CROSSOVER SETTINGS AND GAIN ADJUSTMENT
Your Directed Audio power amplifier needs to be adjusted carefully to achieve maximum performance. Because this amplifier is only designed for subwoofer applications, the low-pass crossover is active at all times. The crossover point is adjustable to allow more precise system operation. Try and keep the setting low enough to prevent image smearing (you should not be able to hear male voices from the subwoofer) but not so low as to create a gap between the subwoofer and the mid-bass/midrange speakers.
