About the Wavtech Link500.1Mini
From our tech experts at CEN
A monoblock subwoofer amplifier from Wavtech, rated at 500w RMS.
Who it suits
Anyone adding a subwoofer that needs real power behind it. Wavtech specialises in the awkward part of modern installs: getting a usable signal out of a factory system.
Our tech experts advise
Matching matters more than headline watts, and gains want setting with a meter rather than by ear. It needs a fused feed from the battery on the correct cable gauge. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I choose the right amplifier for my speakers or subwoofer?
A: Match the amplifier's RMS output per channel to the RMS handling of your speakers or subwoofer at the same impedance. The Specification tab lists the power figures. If in doubt, contact CEN with your setup and we will recommend a match.
Q: What wiring do I need to install this amplifier?
A: You will need an amplifier wiring kit sized to the amplifier's power draw, typically including power and earth cable, a fuse, RCA leads and a remote wire. CEN stocks complete wiring kits, and the amplifier's fuse rating is the guide to the cable gauge required.
Q: What class of amplifier is this and does it matter?
A: Class D amplifiers are compact and efficient, ideal for subwoofers and modern installs. Class AB designs are traditionally favoured for outright sound quality on mid and high frequencies. The class is listed in the Specification tab where provided.
Q: Will an amplifier work with my factory head unit?
A: Yes, in most cases. If your head unit has no RCA outputs you will need a line output converter to feed the amplifier a clean signal. CEN stocks line output converters and can advise the right one for your vehicle.
Q: Can CEN install this amplifier?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional amplifier installation from our Nottingham premises, including secure mounting, wiring and setup. Contact us to book.
Q: How much power does the link500.1mini produce?
A: It produces 500W RMS at 2 Ohms or 300W RMS at 4 Ohms into a single channel.
Q: Can the link500.1mini be used with a factory head unit?
A: Yes. Its speaker level input handles up to 40V with built-in loading, and its RCA input accepts up to 10V for aftermarket head units.
Q: Does the link500.1mini have a bass remote?
A: Remote level control is available with the optional linkRC remote.
