4. Tatūnga me te Tāuta
He mea nui te whakaurunga tika mo te mahi me te roa o to oranga amplifier. The SG-DA51600 is designed for surface mounting.
4.1. Whakapiki
Select a mounting location that is dry, well-ventilated, and provides sufficient space for the amplifier's dimensions (1.97 x 8.27 x 11.81 inches). Ensure the location allows for proper heat dissipation, as the chassis acts as a heat sink. Secure the amplifier using appropriate marine-grade fasteners.
4.2. Hononga Waea
Ko te amplifier operates on a 12 Volts (DC) power supply. All connections are conveniently located on the stainless steel mirror install panel.

5. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
Once installed and wired correctly, the amplifier is ready for operation. The SG-DA51600 is a 5-channel, 1600 Watt Class-D amplifier with a frequency response of 10Hz - 50kHz.
5.1. Whirihoranga Ororongo
Ko te amplifier provides independent controls for Zone 1, Zone 2, and the Subwoofer channel. These controls allow for fine-tuning of the audio output to match your specific speaker setup and listening preferences.
- Mana Taumata: Adjust the input sensitivity for each zone (Zone 1, Zone 2, Subwoofer) to match the output level of your source unit.
- Auau Whakawhiti: Utilize the Low Pass Filter (LPF) and High Pass Filter (HPF) controls to direct appropriate frequencies to your speakers and subwoofer. This ensures optimal sound quality and protects your speakers.
- Whakarei i te Bass: The subwoofer channel includes a Bass Boost feature to enhance low-frequency output.
- Tātari Subsonic: The subwoofer channel also features a Subsonic filter to remove extremely low, inaudible frequencies that can waste amplifier power and potentially damage the subwoofer.
6. Tiaki
Te Raupapa Moana Waitohu Fusion Amplifier is built for durability in the marine environment, featuring conformal coated PCBs for maximum product life and performance. The amplifier chassis also functions as a heat sink, reducing component core temperature and increasinte whai huatanga o te g.
- Te horoi: Ia wa, horoia te ampo waho o te kaihoroi me te ngohengohe, damp kakahu. A ape i te whakamahi i nga matū kino, i nga horoi horoi ranei.
- Hononga: Regularly inspect all wiring connections for corrosion or looseness. Ensure all terminals are secure.
- Whakahau: Me whakarite ko te waahi huri noa i te amplifier remains clear to allow for proper airflow and heat dissipation.
7. Te Raru
The SG-DA51600 incorporates 5-way circuitry protection to safeguard against common issues:
- Parenga Ngawha: Shuts down the amplifier if it overheats. Allow the unit to cool down before resuming operation. Ensure adequate ventilation.
- Reversed Power Polarity Protection: Prevents damage if power connections are reversed. Double-check wiring.
- DC Parenga Whakakore: Protects speakers from harmful DC voltage.
- High + Low Voltage Parenga: Ka tiaki i te amplifier from unstable power supply conditions.
Nga take noa:
- Kore Mana: Check power connections, fuses, and the remote turn-on lead.
- Kore Oro: Verify input signal, speaker connections, and amplifier settings (level, crossover).
- Oro korikori: Check for proper gain settings, speaker impedance, and ensure no wiring shorts.
If issues persist after checking these points, consult a qualified marine electronics technician.
