AMPLIFIER FEATURE DESCRIPTIONS
AXL AMPLIFIERS:
Each multi channel model is capable of 4 & 2-Ohms stereo per channel, or 4-Ohms mono bridged All Autotek amplifiers feature a comprehensive diagnostic system, with speaker lead short circuit, and

PROTECT” LED.
operation. The AXL1550.1 is stable at 4 & 2-Ohms while the AXL2550.1 is stable at 4, 2 & 1-Ohm.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE ANY AMPLIFIER BELOW THE INTENDED IMPEDANCE. YOU
The input sensitivities for rated output powers are variable from 0.2 volts to 6 volts.

All crossovers are fully variable in their respective ranges.
Crossover filters are 12dB/Octave.

The 4 channel amps have the same features as the 2 channel models except that there are 2 sets of
controls.
1 set for channels 1 & 2 and 1 set for channels 3 & 4.
In addition, the 4 channel models have a
MODE switch which allows for RCA signal routing and
selection.
The
X-OVER slide switch selects the internal crossover functions:
-The input signal is routed directly to the LINE OUT RCA jacks, regardless of the X-OVER setting
simplifying daisy chaining of amplifiers.
-HPF: Selects the built in HIGH PASS filter, variable from 60 Hz to 1.2kHz.
-FULL: Bypasses all crossovers for full frequency range operation.
-LPF: Selects the built in LOW PASS , variable from 30 Hz to 250Hz.
MODE : The mode switch allows you to choose routing of signal within the amp.
-2CH Mode: In this mode, only inputs 1&2 are used. Input 1 (left)is internally routed to speaker
terminals 1&3, while input 2 (right)is internally routed to speaker terminals 2&4.
This is useful when only a stereo source is available. CH1&2 can be set to high pass for highs, and
CH3&4 to low pass for lows, for instance, or set to full range, depending on the application.
-3CH mode: In this mode, input 1&2 signals are internally mono mixed, and routed as a mono signal
to 1&2 speaker terminals. These outputs can be mono bridged into one speaker. Set CH1&2 to low
pass. Input 3 is internally routed to speaker terminal 3, and input 4 is internally routed to speaker
terminal 4. Set CH3&4 to high pass.
-4CH Mode: In this mode, each input is internally routed to the corresponding speaker terminals,
with input 1 to speaker terminal 1 etc.
HIGH INPUT : If your radio/CD player does not have unbalanced (RCA) outputs, you can use the
HIGH level (wire) inputs.
LINE INPUT : The line input accepts unbalanced (RCA) inputs from 0.2V to 6V.
LINE OUTPUT : The line output passes through signal from the line inputs which allows you to daisy
chain multiple amplifiers from one signal.
Note that the LOW PASS signal is MONO.
-In the LPF position, the HIGH PASS filter acts as a subsonic filter.
-When the LPF mode is selected a 0 to +12dB, at 45Hz,
BASS EQ is also switched in.
