Frequently Asked Questions - PA D4000.4 POLK

What power can I expect from the PA D4000.4 amplifier?
The amplifier delivers 125 W x 4 channels at 4 ohms, 200 W x 4 at 2 ohms and up to 400 W x 2 channels bridged at 4 ohms.
How to bridge the channels?
To bridge, use the terminals marked by a black frame. For example, for a bridged front and rear channel, connect the speaker between the positive terminal of the front channel and the negative terminal of the rear channel. The minimum bridged load is 4 ohms.
What power cable gauge is recommended?
It is recommended to use 4 AWG cable for power and ground. The power cable fuse must be placed within 30 cm of the battery.
What to do if the PROTECTION LED lights up?
The PROTECTION LED indicates a short circuit, DC offset, or overheat. Check the speaker connections, impedance (minimum 2 ohms unbridged, 4 ohms bridged) and amplifier ventilation.
How to adjust the built-in filters?
Use the HPF (high-pass), FULL (full range) or BPF (band-pass) switches for each channel pair. The crossover frequencies are adjusted via the potentiometers: high-pass from 20 Hz to 4 kHz, low-pass from 50 Hz to 5 kHz.
Can I use the amplifier with a source without preamp output?
Yes, the amplifier has line-level inputs (RCA) and an adjustable gain control from 200 mV to 6 V to suit most sources.
Where to install the amplifier in the car?
Install it in a dry, flat and stable place, preferably in the trunk or under a seat, with at least 2.5 cm clearance around for ventilation. Never install it in the engine compartment.
How to set the gain level correctly?
Set the gain to minimum, turn up the source volume to 75-100% until you hear distortion, then reduce slightly. Then turn up the amplifier gain until distortion and back off slightly. This ensures optimal setting without clipping.
What to do if the sound lacks bass?
Check the speaker polarity (reversed wires cancel bass), impedance (too low can limit bass) and filter settings (ensure low-pass or full range filter is selected).
What is the maximum power consumption?
The amplifier is protected by 40 A and 35 A fuses (75 A total). Consumption depends on speaker impedance and listening level. For optimal operation, use a suitable battery and alternator.

AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION

Mounting Locations

The location of your amplifier will depend on several important issues. Due to the low profile and compact size of the Polk Audio PA D Series amplifier, there are many possible installation locations that will yield satisfactory amplifier performance. Always mount the amplifier in a place that protects the amplifier from the elements. In addition, mount the amplifier on a stable, flat surface.

NOTE: Mounting amplifiers upside down is not recommended and may cause premature thermal shutdown.

WARNING! DO NOT MOUNT any amplifier in the engine compartment. Amplifiers are not designed to endure the harsh environment of an engine compartment.

Passenger Compartment

If you are going to mount the amplifier in the passenger compartment, make sure you have adequate room for ventilation. When mounting your amplifier under a seat or similar area, keep a minimum of 1" of clearance around the amplifier for adequate cooling.

Trunk Compartment

Mounting your amplifier in the trunk provides excellent performance as long as you do not restrict the airflow around the heatsink of the amplifier. For optimal results, mount the amplifier with as much clearance as possible. This type of mounting will yield the best cooling due to the convection effect of the amplifier chassis.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Power for systems with a single amplifier can be supplied by most automotive electrical systems. Systems with multiple amplifiers may require a higher capacity battery, altamator or the use of a storage capacitor. Polk Audio PA D Series amplifiers do generate a certain amount of heat as part of normal operation. Be sure the area around the amplifier is unobstructed to allow adequate air circulation. Remember, beach blankets, last week's laundry, school books and homework papers placed on top of the amplifier impede air flow and may cause damage.

  1. Please read this owner's manual carefully before installing your amplifier.
  2. Disconnect the battery ground terminal prior to making any electrical connections.
  3. Check for any hazards or obstructions such as gas tanks, fuel or brake lines, and wiring harnesses before mounting the amplifier.
  4. Pick a mounting location that will provide adequate access and ventilation and protect the amplifier from heat, moisture, and dirt.
  5. Avoid sharp metal areas when routing cables to the amplifier, and run RCA cables away from the power cables and other potentially noisy car harnesses.
  6. The amplifier should be grounded with a short, heavy gauge wire connected directly to the car at a bare metal surface, preferably scraped body metal. Do not use factory ground locations, seat bolts, or brackets that are spot welded.
  7. Always fuse your power connection within 12 inches of the battery terminal. Use a fuse or circuit breaker rated slightly more than the on-board fuse(s) of the amplifiers). The gauge of power wire used should take into account the total current draw of the system, and the length of wire used. IASCA and other auto sound competition organizations have charts available for this; you can also find a chart in the MECP study guide. Minimum wire gauge recommendations for the individual amplifiers are listed on the specification page. Always use the same gauge wire for the amplifier ground that you use for the power wire. Be sure to examine the battery ground cable of the vehicle, and if necessary, upgrade it by adding an additional ground wire that is the same gauge as the amplifier's power wire. Remember, the amplifier can only deliver its rated output when it is not current limited by the power and ground supply wires.
  8. This amplifier is designed to drive a speaker load that measures from 2 to 8 Ohms for full range channels and 4 Ohm minimum for bridged channels. Keep in mind that heat is the long-term enemy of automotive electronics and the lower your speaker load, the more heat is generated. For low-impedance speaker applications or restricted ventilation installations, an external cooling fan may be advisable.

  9. 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.

Step By Step Installation

  1. Determine the location for the amplifier. Refer to the Mounting Locations section of this guide.

  2. Decide on the system configuration for your amplifier. For system suggestions, refer to the Speaker Wiring Diagrams section of this guide.

  3. Run all the wires from the amplifier location to the speakers, source unit, and battery. Do not connect the battery at this time. Be sure to run Line levels and power and speaker wires away from factory electrical wires and system as they pose a great potential for induced system noise.

  4. Pre-drill amplifier mounting holes. Be sure to "think before you drill." Gas tanks, fuel lines, and other obstructions have a nasty way of hiding themselves. For best results use a marking pen to mark the mounting holes and pre-drill these holes with a standard 1/8" drill bit.

  5. Mount the amplifier. Make sure the amplifier is mounted on a flat surface. If this is not possible, do not over tighten the screws so that the chassis of the amplifier is twisted or bent.

  6. Turn the vehicle's key switch to the off position.

  7. Disconnect the vehicle's battery ground terminal.

B. Connect power wires to the amplifier (ground first, then +12V and REM).

  1. Connect the line level and speaker wires to the amplifier. Check the quality of your speakers and signal connections. This will determine the ultimate performance of your Polk Audio PA D Series amplifier. Refer to the Line Level Inputs/Controls and Speaker Wiring Diagrams sections of this guide for correct wiring instructions.

  2. Reconnect the ground terminal to the battery after power, speaker, and line level connections are completed.

  3. Set crossovers. Refer to the Line Level Inputs/Controls section of this manual for detailed instructions.

  4. Once satisfied that all connections and settings are correct, install the fuse located near the vehicle's battery and proceed to the Testing the System section of this manual.

WARNING! NEVER exceed the recommended fuse size of this amplifier. Failure to do so will result in the voiding of your warranty and possible damage to the amplifier.

SET UP AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Testing the System

After you have completed the installation, you need to test the system. This will help ensure years of trouble-free operation. Please refer to the listed steps below when testing the sound of your Polk Audio PA D Series amplifier.

  1. Check all the wiring connections to be sure they are correct and secure.
  2. Turn the signal source volume control all the way down. Set any tone controls to their flat or defeated positions. This includes the loudness control.
  3. Turn the level controls of the amplifier to their minimum positions.
  4. Turn the head unit on. Check to see if the power LED located on the connection side of the amplifier is on. If not, please refer to the Power Inputs/Speaker Outputs and the Troubleshooting Tips sections of this manual for instructions.
  5. If using an aftermarket head unit, turn the level controls of the amplifier about one quarter of a turn counterclockwise. Slowly increase the volume level of the head unit so that you can hear the output of the system. If no sound is heard or if the output is distorted, turn the system off immediately. Refer to the Power Inputs/Speaker Outputs and the Troubleshooting Tips sections of this manual to solve your installation problems.
  6. Check to make sure the output for each channel is correct. If the active crossovers are used, check to make sure that each output is correct from the amplifier. When using active crossovers on midrange

and tweeters, do not use crossover frequencies lower than recommended. If the system is not configured properly, refer to the Line Level Inputs/Controls section of this manual and take corrective action.

  1. If the output is clear and undistorted, continue to the Adjusting the Sound of the System section of this manual.

Adjusting the Sound of the System

Once you have checked the system's operation, adjust the sound of the system. Adjusting the sound of the system is accomplished by setting the level controls and adjusting the internal crossovers (see Line Level Inputs/Controls on page 4).

  1. Turn the signal source volume control all the way down. Set any tone controls to their flat or defeated positions. This includes the loudness control.
  2. Turn the level controls of the amplifier to their minimum positions.
  3. Choose music with high dynamic content that you like, with which you are familiar, and will be used most often in the system.
  4. Turn the head unit's volume control up to its highest undistorted output level. If you lack test equipment, this point occurs between 3/4 to full volume depending on the quality of your head unit. Listen for any audible distortion. If any distortion is audible, reduce the volume of the head unit until you have an undistorted output. Leave the volume control at this position during your system tuning.
  5. While listening to your chosen dynamic music, turn up the level control corresponding to the midrange output until you hear slight distortion and turn the level control back slightly for an undistorted output. Depending on your system, the midrange and tweeter output may be on the same output channels.
  6. Turn up the level control corresponding to the tweeter output until you hear slight distortion and turn back the level control slightly for an undistorted output. Depending on your system the midrange and tweeter output may be on the same output channels.
  7. Fine-tune the output level between midrange and tweeters. Refer to the Line Level Inputs/Controls section of this manual for detailed instructions.
  8. Repeat Steps 5-7 for the rear speakers. If you do not have rear speakers continue to Step 10.
  9. Set levels between the front and rear midrange and tweeters for optimum front/rear balance.
  10. Turn up the level control corresponding to the woofer output until you hear slight distortion and turn back the level control slightly for an undistorted output.
  11. Fine-tune the output level between satellite speakers and the woofers. Refer to the Line Level Inputs/Controls section of this manual for controls. Adjust the level to the bass output of the woofer to match the sonic requirements of the system.
  12. Enjoy your awesome Polk Audio PA D Series amplifier.
