OUTPUT

To the right of the Speaker Out connectors is a switch labeled 
:Mode”  with  “Stereo”  and  “Bridged”  as  options.  It  is  used  to 
switch the output mode of MI4. 

If  you  will  be  connecting  a  pair  of  speakers  to  the  amplifier, 
place the switch in the “Stereo” Position. If you will be using a 
pair  channels  to  power  a  single  mono  speaker,  place  the 
switch in the “Bridged” position.

The  MI4  Power  Amplifier  has  2  channels  outputs.  Each 
channel  has  a  pair  of  multi-way  binding  post  connectors. 
These  are  red  and  black  screw  posts  on  the  rear  panel  of  the 
amplifier. Terminals are provided for “L” and “R” output. If you 
will use the amplifier with a stereo mode(not a bridged mode), 
connect the speaker’s positive(Red) terminal to the amplifier’s 
positive(Red)  terminal  using  the  appropriate  gauge  speaker 
wire,  and  connect  the  speaker’s  negative(Black)  terminal  to 
the  amplifier’s  negative(Black)  terminal(immediately  beside 
the  positive  terminal)  using  the  appropriate  gauge  speaker 
wire.
If  you  would  like  to  use  the  amplifier  with  “Bridged”  mode, 
place the “Mode” Switch in the “Bridged” Position to be a single 
channel  mono  amplifier,  the  two  channels  will  be  internally 
connected in series. You will use both Red terminals to connect 
to  the  speaker,  the  “L”  channel’s  Red  terminal  will  be  positive 
terminal  and  the  “R”  channel’s  Red  terminal  will  be  negative 
terminal under “Bridged” mode.

Note:

 

The  minimum  impedance  for  the  total  load 

connected  to  a  pair  of  channels  in  the  “Bridged” 
mode is 8-ohm.

 360W (All Channels Driven)

NOTE:

 This amplifier is capable of use with standard US 

voltage (115V) as well as European voltage (230V). The 
amplifier will be preset for the voltage of the country it is 
sold in. Use with other voltages requires some changes 
to  be  made  to  the  amplifier.  Should  you  wish  to  use  the 
amplifier in a country other than the one for which it was 
purchased, 

please  contact  OSD  AUDIO  at  (562)  697-

2600.

Limited Warranty
OSD AUDIO: warrants its amplifier products against defects in 
materials  and  workmanship  for  a  limited  period  of  time.  For  a 
period  of  two  years  from  date  of  original  purchase,  we  will 
repair or replace the product, at our option, without charge for 
parts and labor.

This  limited  warranty  applies  only  to  purchases  from 
authorized  OSD  AUDIO  retailers.  This  limited  warranty  is 
extended  only  to  the  original  purchaser  and  is  valid  only  to 
customers in USA.

Customers are required to provide a copy of the original sales 
invoice from an authorized OSD AUDIO dealer when making a 
claim  against  this  limited  warranty.  This  limited  warranty  only 
covers failures due to defects in materials or workmanship that 
occur  during  normal  use.  It  does  not  cover  failures  resulting

misapplication,  alteration,  faulty  installation,  modification, 
service  by  anyone  other  than  OSD  AUDIO  or  damage  that  is 
attributable  to  acts  of  god.  It  does  not  cover  costs  or 
transportation  to  OSD  AUDIO  or  damage  in  transit.  The 
customer should return their defective product, freight prepaid 
and  insured,  to  OSD  AUDIO,  only  after  receiving  a  Returned 
Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number.

This  warranty  will  become  void  if  the  serial  number 
identification  has  been  wholly  or  partially  removed,  altered  or 
erased. Repair of replacement under the terms of this warranty 
does  not  extend  the  terms  of  this  warranty.  Should  a  product 
prove  to  be  defective  in  workmanship  or  material,  the 
customer’s  sole  remedies  will  be  repair  or  replacement  as 
provided  under  the  terms  of  this  warranty.  Under  no 
circumstances shall OSD AUDIO be liable for loss or damage, 
direct, consequential or incidental, arising out of the use of or 
inability to use the product.

Whenever you are using speakers outdoors, you should 
be  aware  that  sound  does  not  travel  like  it  would  be  in 
your  home.  Without  the  reflective  surfaces  of  walls  and 
ceilings,  sound  at  outdoors  will  dissipate  quickly. 
Therefore,  in  an  outdoor  situation  the  MI4  Power 
Amplifier  provides  the  opportunity  to  bridge  adjacent 
channels,  effectively  doubling  the  available  power  for 
your speakers. This can help to overcome the problem of 
using speakers outdoors assuming the speakers chosen 
are capable of handling the additional power.

It  should  be  noted  that  the  MI4  Power Amplifier  is  rated 
to  operate  into  a  minimum  8-ohm  bridged  load. 
Therefore,  if  you  are  using  more  than  a  single  8-ohm 
loudspeaker in bridged mode you should consider using 
an  impedance  matching  speaker  selector,  such  as  the 
SSVC-6  or  possibly  using  an  impedance  matching 
volume control, such as the SVC 70, SVC 100, SVC 300, 
VKR  120,  VMS  100  or  VMX  300  in  a  weatherproof 
housing available at your favorite DIY store or electrical 
supply.  The  choice  of  a  volume  control  would  allow  you 
the  additional  flexibility  of  being  able  to  attenuate  the 
volume whenever necessary.
