Page 8: Amplifier Settings
AMPLIFIER SETTINGS Signal Input and Output Configurations The input section of the amplifier consists of a phase switch that sets the output configura- tion, gain controls, and RCA inputs. The input section makes it easy to adapt this amplifier to most system configurations. Input Gain The Orion HCCA D600 amplifier has a level adjustment to allow for easy integration with any source unit. -
Page 9: Low-Pass Crossover
WARNING! DO NOT set crossover frequencies lower than the speakers recommended operating range. This can cause driver failure that is not covered by the man- ufacturer's warranty. Low-Pass Crossover The low-pass crossover adjusts the upper crossover of the filter and is continuously variable from 30Hz to 250Hz. -
Page 10: Infinite Baffle Example High-Pass Set At 30Hz
Infinite Baffle Example High-Pass Set at 30Hz By removing low frequency signal that the woofer cannot produce, the woofer can play its capable range louder. The first example is an infinite baffle situation. The left graph displays the frequency response of a 12-inch woofer in an infinite baffle application without the high-pass filter, with the filter and with the filter and the INTELLi Q set to +3dB. -
Page 11: Sealed Example High-Pass Set At 20Hz
Sealed Example High-Pass Set at 20Hz This sealed example is the same 12-inch woofer in the recommended sealed enclosure. Up to 6 dB of boost is capable if 20 Hz was used. With +6dB of boost, the woofer has more out- put down to 15 Hz. -

Page 13: Bridging
Bridging For bridging into a single speaker load, this amplifier has the ability to be bridged with another amplifier (must be the same model). To do this you must utilize the MASTER/SLAVE and PHASE switch settings. On the master amplifier, set the switch setting to MASTER. The signal is then routed through RCA Line Out to the RCA Line In on the other (slave) amplifi- er. -
Page 14: Passenger Compartment
NOTE: The wiring connections to the power, remote and speaker terminals should be accomplished before the amplifier is mounted. NOTE: Mounting amplifiers upside down is not recommended and may cause premature thermal shutdown. WARNING! Do not mount any amplifier in the engine compartment. Amplifiers are not designed to endure the harsh environment of the exterior elements. -
Page 15: Tools Of The Trade
Orion amplifiers generate a certain amount of heat as part of normal operation. Be sure the area around the amplifier is unobstructed to allow adequate air circulation. Remember, beach blankets, last week's laundry, school books and homework papers located on top of the amplifier do not improve air flow and may become damaged. -
