Figura 2.1: Wara view of the Jensen JA4B amplifier, detailing the power input, fuse, and speaker output terminals.

  1. Power (BATTERY+): Connect a 4-8 AWG power wire from the amplifier to the positive terminal of the vehicle's battery. Install an in-line fuse (not supplied) within 18 inches of the battery.
  2. Art (GND): Connect a 4-8 AWG ground wire from the ampl-alimentatur ma' wiċċ tal-metall nadif u mhux miżbugħ fuq ix-chassis tal-vettura. Kun żgur li hemm konnessjoni elettrika soda.
  3. Remot (REM): Connect a 18 AWG remote turn-on wire from the amplifier to the remote output of your head unit. This wire turns the amplifier on and off with the head unit.
  4. Speaker Outputs (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4): Connect your speakers to the corresponding output terminals. The amplifier supports 4-channel operation. Refer to your speaker's impedance for proper connection. Recommended speaker wire is 12-16 AWG.
  5. Fjusis: Il- amplifier is equipped with two 25A fuses. Ensure these are correctly seated.

  • Low Level (RCA) Inputs: Qabbad il-kejbils RCA mill-pre- tal-unità ewlenija tiegħekamp outputs għall- amplifier's RCA inputs (CH1/CH2, CH3/CH4).
  • High Level (Speaker Wire) Inputs: If your head unit does not have RCA outputs, connect the speaker outputs from your head unit directly to the ampterminals tad-dħul ta' livell għoli tal-lifier.
  • RCA Pass Through Outputs: These outputs allow you to send the audio signal to another amplifier fis-sistema tiegħek.

3. It-tħaddim tal- Ampaktar ħaj

3.1 Qawwa Inizjali

Once all connections are secure, reconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal. Turn on your head unit. The amplifier should power on, indicated by the illuminated Jensen logo.

3.2 DSP App Control

The Jensen JA4B amplifier features an integrated Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that can be controlled via the Jensen DSP AMP App, available for Apple and Android devices. This app allows for precise audio tuning.

  1. Download the "Jensen DSP AMP" app from your device's app store.
  2. Tiżgura tiegħek amplifier huwa mixgħul.
  3. Open the app and follow the on-screen instructions to connect to your amplifier permezz tal-Bluetooth.
  4. Within the app, you can adjust various audio parameters, including:
    • Aġġustament tal-gwadann: Variable from 200 mV to 6 V, allowing you to match the ampis-sensittività tad-dħul tal-lifier għall-output tal-unità ewlenija tiegħek.
    • Crossovers: Adjustable High-Pass and Low-Pass Crossovers (32-320 Hz) to filter frequencies for specific speakers.
    • Spinta baxxa: Adjustable at 45 Hz to enhance bass response.
    • Ekwalizzazzjoni: Fine-tune the frequency response.
    • Allinjament tal-Ħin: Adjust speaker delays for optimal sound staging.
    • Illuminazzjoni RGB: Customize the color of the Jensen logo illumination.

4. Manutenzjoni

The Jensen JA4B ampIl-lifier jeħtieġ manutenzjoni minima biex jiżgura prestazzjoni fit-tul.

  • Tindif: Imsaħ perjodikament il- ampImsaħ il-barra tal-lifer b'ċarruta ratba u niexfa biex tneħħi t-trab u l-fdalijiet. Tużax kimiċi ħarxa jew prodotti tat-tindif li joborxu.
  • Ventilazzjoni: Tiżgura li l- ampIx-xewk tat-tkessiħ tal-lifer mhumiex imfixkla. Fluss tal-arja xieraq huwa essenzjali biex jipprevjeni s-sħana żejda.
  • Sostituzzjoni tal-fjus: Jekk il- amplifier does not power on, check the two 25A fuses located on the power input side. Replace blown fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating (25A).
  • Kontroll tal-Konnessjoni: Occasionally inspect all wiring connections for tightness and corrosion. Loose or corroded connections can lead to poor performance or damage.
