Speaker outputs
This amplifier is a multi channel amplifier design, meaning it has more than one channel of speaker outputs. It is
equipped with a removable plug style terminal for speaker wire connections up to 14 AWG. Make this connection
carefully and neatly. Strip your wire back 5/16” and twist the exposed leads and insert them into the block terminal while
being careful that there are no loose or frayed strands of wire.
Tighten the standard head screw down on the terminal until
the wire is tightly secured in place. If the wires ever come in
contact with each other, the amplifier will go into protection.
Know your total Ohm load before you make any connec-
tions.

Ohm Load Matching
This amplifier is equipped with a unique impedance matching system that allows you to mix a wide range of Ohm loads
and still achieve full power. This can be done independently on the front and rear channels.
Under 4
Ω
Any speaker or combination of speakers with a total combined Ohm load between 2 and 4 Ohms
(not lower than 2
Ohms)
must use this position.
Bridged loads down to 4 Ohms must use this position.
The amplifier will make full power at
2 Ohms Stereo (4 Ohms bridged).
Note: you can use any Ohm load above 2 Ohms in this position, however power output will
drop as the impedance increases.
Over 4
Ω
Any speaker or combination of speakers with a total
combined Ohm load over 4 Ohms can use this position.
The amplifier will make full power at 4 Ohms stereo (8
Ohms bridged).
WARNING: This amplifier will not operate and could be
damaged if used in the wrong configuration. At no time
can it be operated below 2 Ohms stereo or 4 Ohms
bridged.
Bass Boost
This amp has an adjustable Bass Boost that is directed to the front speakers. When laying out your system, if you plan to
use Bass Boost (Example: Running a Bridged Subwoofer), connect those speakers to the front channels. Begin your adjust-
ments at a low volume. If you do not hear any improvement,
then the woofer does not need any boost. Use Bass Boost
carefully. The demands on power output are tremendous.
Try to minimize its use by changing woofer position or the
enclosure size.
