Audiophile Design
Sophisticated design and superior internal components result in outstanding
sound quality, performance and long term reliability.
Advanced Protection
Each channel is individually protected. If the circuitry determines that a chan-
nel must be shut down for protection, a rare occurrence, only the channel
affected will be turned off. The other channels will continue to play. Once
conditions return to normal, the affected channel will be turned back on and
operate as normal.
Flexible Input Selection
Each of the 12 channels can be assigned a variety of source inputs. A dedi-
cated input can be assigned to each channel. Each channel can also be con-
figured to play common signals from the Bus or Auxiliary inputs. This provides
the flexibility needed in sophisticated custom audio installations.
Bridging
The power output of adjacent channels can be combined to provide extra
power when needed in certain areas. This is easily accomplished by flipping a
single switch.
Individual Channel Level Adjustments
Each channel has its own level adjustment. This allows the loudness of each
speaker to be perfectly matched to its area.

Connector Outputs
Simplify the connection of the speaker outputs by using SpeakerCraft’s
InstaLLock
™
Connector, purchased separately. InstaLLock
™
Connectors elimi-
nate the hassle of connecting multiple wires onto the back of the amplifier.
Instead they can be easily connected to the InstaLLock
™
Connector which is
later plugged into the back of the amplifier. InstaLLock
™
Connectors can be
purchased from your SpeakerCraft Dealer.
Multiple Power Modes and Output Trigger
There are three ways to turn the amplifier on: constant, trigger and audio
sense. This allows the amplifier to operate seamlessly as part of a sophisticat-
ed custom installation. A separate output trigger allows the amplifier to acti-
vate other components via a voltage trigger.
