Z-150.2 AP / Z-400.2 AP Input Ends

The Input ends of the AP amplifiers is where you find the signal input connectors and
controls. All the AP amps have the same basic functions, adapted slightly to fit the expected
use of each model.
We look first at the stereo (2-Channel) amps. The 500 watt (Bridged @ 4Ω) Z-150.2 AP and
the 1350 watt (bridged @ 4Ω) Z-400.2 AP, since they share exactly the same functions and
controls.

Ch. 1 and Ch. 2 RCA input connectors using

Zapco's proprietary gold plated connectors

2•

To ease multi-amp installations, the amps 

have pass-through RCA outputs so you can
"daisy-chain" multiple amps while only 
running one front-to-back RCA
