Considerations: 

  Level setting

-start with Level at zero CCW. With a working known source connected slowly increase the Global 

Level to the maximum safe listening level. When the amp is energized it will not blast the speakers or damage any 
equipment including your ears. 

  

Using a Volume Control-

set volume control to maximum then adjust that zone Level on amp for maximum 

listening pleasure. This will prevent extra loud volumes on energizing the amp or a particular zone.  

  

Adding Zones-

If more zones or rooms of music are required you can add an extra amplifier or switch to a multi-

zone amp. Use a dual RCA plug if more then one AMP2150 is required. 

  

Blended Stereo

-To obtain both Left and Right blended stereo into one speaker with 2 wires, connect the (-) output 

of one channel on the amp to the black (-) of the speaker then the (+) output of the other channel to the red (+) of 
the speaker. You can do the same for the unused outputs for another speaker. 

  

Bridged Stereo-

To obtain Stereo from two separate channels a second amplifier is required. This will provide a true 

stereo high powered zone. 

  

12VDC Trigger-

When using the Trigger  jack to control On/Off, wire the tip of the male plug for (+) 12VDC. When 

12VDC is present at the Trigger the amp will energize. The front Power Button must be in standby (RED).  

  

Surge Protection-

To protect the amp from power surges and lightning strikes install the ILS120 in-line surge 

protector. This will protect the amp from power surges, over and under voltage from power company and lightening. 
The ILS120 can be used on TV, subwoofer, computer, projector or any equipment with an IEC plug. 

  Looping -

 If a loop out is required for an addition amplifier use a dual output RCA plug.
