Why Choose This Product?
The BRL4000.1 combines an iron core transformer and Ultra-Fi MOSFET power supply with multi-layer surface-mount circuitry. Its low-EMI design is intended to minimize interference with other vehicle electronic systems, while the high-end preamplifier circuit accepts a wider range of input signals.
Nickel-plated RCA jacks provide a corrosion-resistant connection. A delayed turn-on function helps prevent unwanted hisses and pops when the amplifier starts or shuts down. The wired remote’s indicator displays green when the amplifier is powered on and red if it enters protect.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
This amplifier is specified for 12V mobile audio electrical systems and supports 1-Ohm, 2-Ohm, and 4-Ohm subwoofer configurations. Check your subwoofer load and available installation space against the ratings and dimensions above before purchase.
The molded terminals accommodate 2 AWG power and ground wire and 12 AWG speaker wire. The amplifier requires 350 A external fusing. Follow the Quick Start Guide and confirm your system’s electrical requirements during installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
