SPEAKER WIRING AND CONFIGURATIONS
Speaker Load
Keep in mind your PowerBass Xtreme amplifier is a high power amplifier and not a high current amplifier. In
other words
this amplifier requires a minimum impedance of 2 ohms STEREO and 4 ohms bridged
MONO to operate trouble free.
Lower impedance will send the amplifier into protection and possibly damage
the electronics inside and void the waranty.
NOTE: Know your total impedance load before you make any connections.
Speaker Wiring
Choose the correct speaker wire for your application. Most applications will require a minimum of 16 gauge
wire. At the amplifier end, splice the speaker wires to the properly marked output leads from the Molex style
connector. Route these using the same precautions as you did when you ran the power cable. Check to make
sure you’ve maintained proper polarity and balance.
CAUTION:
Maintaining proper impedance is critical when wiring the Full Range Digital model amplifiers. Improper
wiring can cause severe damage to BOTH the speakers and the amplifier. Detailed wiring diagrams
are supplied with all PowerBass woofers. IF YOU ARE NOT EXPERIENCED OR UNCOMFORTABLE
READING THE WIRING DIAGRAMS CONSULT YOUR AUTHORIZED POWERBASS DEALER BEFORE YOU
ATTEMPT TO WIRE THE SYSTEM.
