Ultra Low-Impedance Output Capablility: The RUBICONI 0.2 and 5.2 are designed for optimal performance into loads as low as l/2 or l/4 ohm stereo (1 or I/2 ohm mono). RUBITM(_Rapid-&e Banched _/mpulse) This new proprietary power sup- ply topology eliminates “power sags” during low frequency reproduction by rapidly increasing the duty cycle, stabilizing the power supply and allowing it to deliver the power required when reproducing low frequen- cies.

~INSTALLATI~N STEP SELECTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT MODE Class A 10.2 and 5.2 The RUBICON amplifiers have the ability to operate in any one of the following modes: Stereo (STACT/Mjx& Mono): Use this mode for either stereo operation (left and right channels) or for Mixed Mono operation (stereo left and right channels plus bridged mono for a subwoofer).
INSTALLATION STEP 3 ) WIRING POWER AND GROUND To ensure maximum output from your RUBICON amplifier, loss power and ground cables and connections. The RUBICON amplifiers will accept up to 4 gauge power and ground cables. Determine from the chart below the minimum gauge power and ground wire for your application.
INSTALLATION STEP 5 The input levels are adjusted by means of the individual channel input level controls located on the front of the amplifier. This is a unique dual-stage circuit that adjusts both level and gain. This topology maintains better S/N Ratio even when using sources with minimal output.
