• Always wear protective eyewear when
using tools.
• When routing cables, keep input signal
cables away from power cables and
speaker wires.
• When making connections, make sure
that each connection is clean, insulated
and properly secured. Observe the
polarity markings on the rear panel.
Refer to the application drawings to set
up the amplifier for operation in stereo,
bridged-mono, bi-amp or tri-mode con-
figurations.
• If the amplifier’s fuse must be replaced,
use only the same rating and type as a
replacement. Do not substitute another
kind.
Controls and Connectors
1. Pre-amp Level Input Connector –
Connects to line-level output from the
source unit.
2. Universal Interface Speaker Level
Connector – Connects to speaker-level
output from the source unit. Provides
Common Sense amplifier turn-on
when used with factory radios
(2-channel on P-7520, 4-channel on
P-7540).
3. Pre-amp Level Output Connector –
Connects to other amps or processors
in the signal chain.
4. Speaker-Output Connector – (2-chan-
nel on P-7520, 4-channel on P-7540).
5. Fuses – P-7520: 30A ATC type, P-7540:
30A ATC type x 2, P-2510: 40A ATC
type.
6. Power Connector – Connection for
12V+, Gnd and Rem.
7. Input-Mode Switch – Sums left and
right inputs.
8. Input Sensitivity Control – Adjusts
input sensitivity for pre-amp level and
speaker-level inputs.
9. Pre-amp Output Selector Switch –
Selects input path for pre-amp output.
Output can be summed from front and
rear inputs with no filter, or filtered by
the front or rear crossover.
10. Rear-Channel Input Selector – Selects
rear-channel input between front input
and rear input.
11. Crossover Selector – Determines
whether the crossover is a High-Pass
filter (HP), Low-Pass filter (LP) or
unfiltered (flat).
12. Crossover Frequency Control –
Determines the crossover frequency
for the amplifier channels (front or
rear) and the pre-amp outputs.
