SINISTER
AMPLIFIER MANUAL
Congratulations! Thank you for purchasing the Wet Sounds
Sinister
TM
Series amplifier. Wet Sounds Sinister series of marine
amplifiers represents the pinnacle in 12 volt amplifier design.
The Sinister™ amplifiers are the highest power to size amplifiers
anywhere in the world for car or marine use. The Sinister
TM
amplifi-
ers use superior performance circuitry by utilizing Wet Sounds
exclusive full range Class D technology combined with Wet Sounds
MAXED™ Power supply. The MAXED power supply is a patent
pending technology designed to provide high efficiency levels never
thought to be achievable in a mobile audio amplifier. What this
means to you. Less current draw, less strain on the electrical
system, less generated heat. All this results in more play time! The
Sinister amplifiers share one size full cast aluminum chassis for all
models making installation a breeze and the ability to have a clean
install. All Sinister amplifiers feature a fully conformal coated 4
layer pcb board, single side power, speaker and input section, and
top mounted controls with removable cover. Sinister
TM
amplifiers
have a back lit Wet Sounds shield logo with selectable illumination
for red, white or blue that can be mounted horizontally or vertically
for flexible amplifier placement. Other features include high
pass/low pass/full range crossovers, flexible inputs source
selection for single or multiple RCA channel input, RCA pass
through on 4ch and 2ch, and removable speaker plugs that accept
large gauge wire. The Sinister
TM
amplifiers are not only extremely
powerful but also intelligent with a built in microprocessor controller
for overvoltage protection, undervoltage protection, DC offset and
speaker short protection, as well as thermal rollback to ensure
consistent play in the harsh marine environment. One of the most
amazing aspects of the Sinister
TM
amplifiers design is the efficiency
rating. All Sinister amplifiers achieve their efficiency rating at full 4
ohm rated power, the 6 ch is 82%, the 4ch is 84% and the 2ch is
86%. This translates into less current draw and less generated
heat. Over twice that of a conventional class AB amplifier and more
efficiency than any other full range class D amplifier.
