Page 2: What Is Included
Introduction What is included? With the PHANTOM MOSFET When first unpacking your new amplifier series, we are introducing amplifier, please check first that the eleven new amplifiers, all designed in package contains all of the items the USA. This new series includes a below. -
Page 3: About 2 Ohm Operation
• Class A-B operation can install four 8 Ohm speakers per channel, when using parallel wiring. • Bridgeable outputs (except PH1500M and PH2500M) Increasing the number of woofers per channel at low frequencies (below • Tri-Mode capable 100Hz) produces an acoustic coupling (except PH1500M and PH2500M) effect. -

General precautions Before installing and using your Before making or breaking power amplifier, please be- connections in your system, come familiar with all the infor- disconnect the vehicle battery. Confirm mation contained in this manual. that your head unit or other equipment is turned off while connecting the input Please keep this manual in a safe jacks and speaker terminals. -
Page 5: Connecting The Amplifier
Connecting the amplifier Before doing any wiring, look through 7. Insert fuse(s) into the battery fuse this manual and identify the diagrams holder(s). to follow for power, input and speaker connections for your particular 8. Recheck all connections before installation. Be sure you understand powering up the amplifier. -
Page 6: Low Level Input Wiring
Low Level Input Wiring Low-level (RCA) input wiring is preferred for best audio performance. Always use a high-quality RCA cable for best audio performance. NOTE: Do not connect BOTH the high level and low level inputs from your receiver to your amplifier at the same time!

Page 8: High Level Input Wiring
High Level Input Wiring The high level input(s) should only be used when your head unit lacks RCA outputs. If the RCA outputs are not present, connect the speaker outputs from the receiver to the high level input connector of the amplifier. Be sure to observe polarity to avoid audio phase problems. - Page 9 Be sure to observe polarity to avoid audio phase problems.
