PZi 550.5 / 5 CHANNEL AMPLIFIER FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Here we show how to use the channel amplifier as straightforward discrete 5
channel full range units.
Interconnect cable checklist:
- Connect the four inputs of the amplifier to a Radio/CD with quality RCA cables.
Level control checklist:
- Refer to the section
“Setting up systems after installation for best performance”
Switch setting checklist:
- 1/2CH X-OVER:
FULL
Minimum final loudspeaker impedances:
- 2-Ohms per channel.
Crossover frequency control checklist:
Channels 3/4:
- HI PASS: N/A
- LOW PASS: N/A
- 3/4CH X-OVER:

The 5 channel amp have the same features as the 4 channel models accept that there is an additional set of controls for channel 5
The
X-OVER
slide switch selects the internal crossover functions:
-HPF:
Selects the built in
HIGH PASS
filter, variable from 10 Hz to 150Hz.
-FULL:
Bypasses all crossovers for full frequency range operation.
-LPF:
Selects the built in
LOW PASS
, variable from 30 Hz to 150Hz for channel 5 only.
MODE
: The mode switch allows you to choose 4 or 5 channel operation.
LINE INPUT
: The line input accepts unbalanced (RCA) inputs from 0.2V to 5V.
SUBSONIC
: Is adjustable from 15Hz to 55Hz for the channel 5 only.
BASS EQ
: Is adjustable from 0dB to 12dB for channel 5 only.
REMOTE
: this is used for the PZiR-1 Bass Remote module.
-The input signal is routed directly to the
LINE OUT
RCA jacks, regardless of the
X-OVER
setting simplifying daisy chaining of amplifiers.
