POWER PER CHANNEL:
6 X 150 wRMS @ 4 ohms at less than 1% THD
4 x 200 wRMS @ 2ohms + 2 x 250 wRMS
4 x 150 wRMS @ 4ohms + 1 x 500 wRMS (Ch 5+6, Bridged @ 4ohms)
Do not bridge Ch 5+6 into 2 ohms. With two 4 ohm subwoofers, use graphic C2.
INPUTS SWITCH
2 = Use input 1+2 and route them to channels 3+4 and 5+6
4 = Use input 1+2 and 3+4
1+2 and 3+4 are attenuated by -6dB and routed to 5+6.
This allows constant bass loudness when you fade between 1+2 and 3+4.
6 = Use all six inputs.
CHANNELS 1 & 2 CROSSOVER CONFIGURATION
Flat: Full Range Signal. No crossover activated.
HP: Activates the High Pass Filter for a midbass or tweeter.
Copy 3 & 4: Copies the signals and filters from channels 3 & 4 to channels 1 & 2. Use this mode when you need
a band pass filter on all four channels. Recommended when bridging channels 1, 2, 3, 4.
CHANNELS 3 & 4 CROSSOVER CONFIGURATION
Flat: Full Range Signal. No crossover activated.
HP: Activates the High Pass filter.
LP/BP: Activates the selection of either a Low Pass filter for woofer or a Band Pass filter for midrange.
CHANNELS 5 & 6 CROSSOVER CONFIGURATION
Flat: Full Range Signal. No crossover activated.
HP: Activates the High Pass filter.
LP/BP: Activates the selection of either a Low Pass filter for woofer or a Band Pass filter for midrange.
Sub Mode: Inputs 5+6 are mixed to mono for bridge mono operation. Crossover slopes become 24dB.
The subwoofer remote volume control is activated. There is a clip distortion light on the remote volume control.
If you see this light is on, reduce volume until the light goes out so that you do not damage your speaker.

  • Page 2 AUTOMATIC POWER TURN ON/OFF The best way to automatically turn the amplifier power on and off is to use the REM wire from your source radio connected to the REM amplifier terminal. If your original equipment stereo or source radio has a BTL amplifier then the RCA inputs have an auto turn on sensing circuit.
  • Page 3 Set INPUT switch to 6. • If you are NOT using a subwoofer set all switches to flat. If you hear distortion in your woofers set all switch to HP and adjust all HP frequency until the distortion goes away. This will probably be around 50 Hz to 70 Hz. 50Hz 50Hz FLAT or HP...
  • Page 4 5 CHANNEL WITH BRIDGED SUBWOOFER • (SEE GRAPHIC C3) • If you have two input wires from the source deck plug them into inputs 1+2. Set INPUT switch to 2. • If you have four input wires from the source deck plug them into inputs 1+2 and 3+4. Set INPUT switch to 4.
  • Page 5 • Connect your tweeters to channels 1+2. Set 1+2 switch to HP. Adjust 1+2 HP frequency to the tweeter manufactures recommendation. 3500 Hz is a good starting point. • Connect your woofers to channels 3+4. Set channel 3+4 switch to LP/BP. Set channel 3+4 switch to BP.

  • Page 7: Troubleshooting

    You need to get more fresh cool air to the amplifier. Do not cover the amplifier or mount it flush into a hole. If the amp is cold and the Focal sign is flashing, there is an internal fault. The amplifier must then be returned for service.
