DO NOT substitute the fuse included with the Amplified Bazooka subwoofer with anything other than the SAME fast blow current rated fuse. Substitution or deletion will void the product's warranty and may cause damage to your car or the amplifier. SHOULD I USE HIGH OR LOW LEVEL INPUTS? If the source unit has only speaker outputs, use the high-level inputs of the Amplified Bazooka subwoofer.
PAGE 18
ENGLISH procedure at the end of this manual to confirm that your inputs are in correct electrical phase and the proper bass response is being produced. Low-Level Inputs: If your source unit only has low-level RCA phono jack output, use only the low-level inputs of the Amplified Bazooka. Connect the low-level RCA phono jack inputs of the Amplified Bazooka subwoofer to the source with a shielded RCA patch cord.

or grease after you finish mounting the ground wire to prevent rust.) OPTION ONE: When you are using this option with all amplified Bass Tubes® models: For the most versatility the Orange Remote Turn On Wire should be connected to the source unit's "Accessory", "Auto-Antenna" or "Remote" lead -- any of which will supply 12 Volts positive when the source is turned on.

ENGLISH ADJUSTING THE CROSSOVER A200 ONLY The built-in crossover on the Amplified Bazooka subwoofer is an 18 dB per octave electronic low pass filter, it has a 60 Hz to 250 Hz variable crossover point. Select the crossover point that you feel best fits your system design. Set the potentiometer labeled XOVER to the point you selected, 60 Hz being all the way to the left (counterclockwise) and 250 Hz being all the way to the right (clockwise). When you have set the crossover, proceed to the next step.
PAGE 21
All A200 MODELS These Remote Controls are accessories that are available from your Bazooka dealer or directly from Bazooka. Be sure to check out other optional accessories for your Bazooka at PASSIVE MODELS (BT6014/6018, BT8014/8018, BT1014/1018, MBT8014, MBT1014 ONLY) On the back of all Bazooka passive single voice coil models you will find a terminal cup with two 5-way platinum colored binding posts, red being positive and black being negative.
PAGE 22
ENGLISH TROUBLESHOOTING Am I In Phase? If your inputs are out of phase and you turn the balance control of your radio all the way to one side, right or left, the bass output from the Bazooka® will increase. When you bring the balance control back to the center position the bass level will drop. This confirms that one of your input channels is wired out of phase with the other.
PAGE 23
PHASE CORRECTING PROCEDURE Disconnect all but one Bazooka® from your system. Be sure that any loose wire connections are insulated to avoid the chance of short-circuiting any of the electronic equipment. Listen to the system and take note of the level of the Bass Response. Connect the next Bazooka® and compare the level of the combined output to that of the single unit. If the Bass Response increases, the Phasing is correct and you can repeat this process on the next Bazooka.
