AT1000 / AT1500 / 2 CHANNEL AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS 

3

FULL RANGE MONO

This is the most basic application for the SUPER SPORT Series 2 channel 
amplifiers.

1. Interconnect cable checklist:

Connect the 

LINE INPUTS

 to the Radio/CD  with good quality RCA cables.

2. Crossover Switch:

The 

X-OVER

 switch must be in the 

FULL

 position.

3. Crossover frequency control checklist:

N/A for full range operation.

4. Line Level:

Refer to the section 

“Setting up systems after installation for best performance”.

NOTE: Minimum final loudspeaker impedances:

4 &-2-Ohms stereo mode or 4-Ohms mono mode

This amplifier will not do 1-Ohm stereo or 2/1-Ohm mono operation.

This application illustrates the basic mono bridging method for all Autotek 2

Important:

 If you are using the mono sub bass output of an active crossover, there is

It is necessary to feed the SAME signal to both left and right inputs via a Y-
