    Fusing Requirements M Series amplifiers are not fuse protected! For safety, a fuse must be installed in-line with the power wire within 12 inches of the battery. In the case of a multi- amp system, use a fuse value equal to the combined total demand of all ampli- fiers in the system.

    Gain: The ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The gain on the M Series amplifiers has two different areas of adjust- ment. The input gain jumper offers 40 dB of input gain adjustment while the front panel potentiometer offers 15 dB of amplifier output level adjustment.

  • Page 12 (i.e. fire wall etc.), a grommet must be used to prevent the wire from chafing and shorting to ground. The M Series amplifiers do not have an on-board fuse. An outboard fuse must be installed in-line with the power wire within 12 inches of the battery. Use the following fuse values at the battery: 121m and 202m: 30 Amp;...
  • Page 13: Speaker Connection

    Be sure the connection is tight. Bridging All M Series amplifiers are capable of being bridged into a mono output due to the internal design of the amplifier. This feature permits the creation of a mono channel for a subwoofer or center channel.
  • Page 14 Inputs M Series Amplifiers feature RCA inputs only. Run RCA cables from your sound source to the inputs of the amplifier. We suggest the use of high qual- ity shielded RCA patch cords to help reduce or eliminate unwanted noise in your installation.
  • Page 15 Gain Control The output gain (for each 2 channels) is controlled by a board-mounted potentiometer located next to the inputs. Xtant suggests setting this level in conjunction with any equalization or signal processing equip- ment in the system. Upon installation of the amplifier, the output gain control should be adjusted.
  • Page 16: Optional Accessory Modules

    (CM 12 ). Each module is designed to be plugged into any accessory port on Xtant’s M Series amplifiers. Frequency adjustment is via a 12 pin plug-in resistor SIP and 13 different frequency SIPS are avail- able from your Xtant Select Dealer.
  • Page 17: Adding Accessory Modules

    Adding Accessories Modules Xtant offers two types of accessory modules which are designed for either “Horizontal” or “Vertical” mounting. The docking port(s), located on the amplifi- er’s circuit board, labeled Horiz Acc Port will accept any module, while the port(s) labeled “Vert” will only accept modules designed for vertical mounting.

    Using the Service JUmper All M Series amplifiers are equipped with a “service jumper” (see page 6, 7 & 8 and below). This jumper pro- vides a simple means of turning the amplifier on or off at the amplifier.
  • Page 19: Troubleshooting

    The Yellow LED will light if a speaker load falls below the M Series’ 2Ω rating and/or a speaker lead / speaker voice coil is shorted.
