Basic application

These sub bass amplifiers can be used in any of the bi-amplification systems described in
this manual, replacing the 2 channel amplifiers as per the illustrations.

Connect the inputs to a suitable source, e.g. a head unit with good quality RCA cables.
Connect the LINE OUT to the inputs of the system highs amplifier.

Use at least

#12 gauge speaker wiring. The amps have dual speaker terminals,

simplifying the hookup of multiple speakers

Refer to the section

Interconnect cable checklist:

Crossover frequency control checklist:

LOW PASS: 40Hz to 150Hz
SUBSONIC:15 Hz to 55 Hz
BASS EQ: 0 to +9dB

Level control checklist:

Minimum final loudspeaker impedance: The GPA1000.1 & GPA1500.1 are 4 & 2-
Ohm stable only (not 1-Ohm stable).
The GPA200.1 & GPA3000.1 are 4, 2 & 1-Ohm stable.
