4-Channel Amplifiers
NA360.4
6
FEATURES:
-
2 Sets of RCA inputs
- LEVEL: Variable sensitivity from 0.2V to 6V
- X-OVER: Selects internal crossover functions
- FLAT: Bypasses all crossovers for full frequency operation
- LOW: Selects the built in LOW PASS filter
- HIGH: Selects the built in HIGH PASS filter
- POWER LED : Indicates the powered up and turned on condition
- PROTECTION LED : Indicates a high voltage, low voltage, short circuit,
hard clip, over heating or DC fault condition.
- MODE: “2” indicates one set of RCA’s are being used. This will also pass signal to channels 3/4 through 1/2 inputs.
“4” indicates connecting 2 sets of RCA’s to 1/2 and 3/4 inputs.
- LINE OUTPUT: Full range RCA pass through.
- BASS EQ: Adjustable 45Hz bass boost from 0dB to 9dB
4 Channel Full Range Stereo:
Control checklist:
Interconnect cable checklist:
- Refer to the section “Settings for Best Performance”
- Connect the four inputs of the amplifier to a Radio/CD with quality RCA cables.
Switch setting checklist:
Minimum final loudspeaker impedances:
- 1/2CH X-OVER: FLAT
- 2 ohm per channel.
- 3/4CH X-OVER: FLAT
MODE: “4” since 2 sets of RCA’s are connected.
Important: Do not be tempted to connect the hot, or positive outputs, from any source together 2 or 3 Channel System:
to obtain a mono signal, as this could very well damage the output stage of that source.
- It is necessary to feed the SAME signal to both left and right inputs via a Y-adapter RCA cable.
Here we show how to use the 4 channel amplifiers as a 3 channel unit by taking
