Introduction What is included?
With the 30US CHAOS EXXTREME II
MOSFET amplifier series, we are
introducing thirteen new amplifiers, all
designed in the USA. This new series
includes three monoblock amps,five
2-channel, four 4-channel amplifiers
and a 5-channel amp.
All CHAOS EXXTREME II models feature
variable low pass and high pass
crossovers and variable input gain
controls.
For further flexibility in the use of a
subwoofer, 0-+18dB Bass Boost
control has been included on all
amplifiers. You can control the
subwoofer level with the remote level
control module.
SsSS understands that amplifiers are
placed in many different kinds of
installations, so we incorporated a very
flexible system of controls in these
amplifiers in order to help you integrate
the amp into your system regardless
of the nature of your input source.
When first unpacking your new
amplifier, please check first that the
package contains all of the items
below. If something is missing, contact
the store where you purchased the
amplifier.
• CHAOS EXXTREME II amplifier
• Remote subwoofer control
• High input cable with connector
• Four (4) mounting screws

Features About 2 Q operation
Your new CHAOS EXXTREME II amplifier
features the following:
• Class A-B operation
• Bridgeable outputs
(except CXXM1250 CXXM1800
and CXXM2200)
• MOSFET PWM (Pulse Width
Modulated) Power Supply
• 2 Q stable stereo operation
with output power increase
• Thermal and speaker short
protection
• Soft turn-on circuit
• Remote turn-on/turn-off circuit
• Variable input gain control
• Variable low pass crossover(s)
• Fixed high pass crossover(s)
• Variable 0 to +18dB Bass Boost
• Nickel-plated RCA low level and
high level inputs
• LED power and protection
indicators
Your CHAOS EXXTREME II amplifier
has been designed to operate
efficiently at loads down to 2Q.
This means that you can install four
8 Q speakers per channel, when
using parallel wiring.
Increasing the number of woofers per
channel at low frequencies (below
100Hz) produces an acoustic coupling
effect. This acoustic coupling effect
increases your power output by about
3dB per speaker, or the equivalent of
an additional 10W per speaker.
When operating at 2Q, the
amplifiers will increase their output
power by approximately 50%. The
current draw will also increase by
about the same amount, so be sure
you have enough current to run the
amplifiers into a 20 load.
If you lack adequate current, your
music reproduction will be distorted.
