Congratulations, you have just purchased the finest auto stereo amplifier that today´s technology can offer. DLS offers a series of high quality car audio products for real music lovers, and we are sure that you will enjoy a high class car sound for many years.
16 mm (5AWG). years of experience of building high quality sound Mount a fuse holder (DLS FH 1 or similar) on the DC products for vehicles. -cable near the positive battery terminal. Use the same cable size from the negative amplifier terminal We recommend you to carefully read this manual and connect to the nearest earth point.
SPEAKER LOADS Most car audio speakers have a 4 ohm impedance. 2.4 SPEAKER CONNECTION DLS amplifiers can be loaded down to 2 ohm on each stereo channel. The gold plated terminals will directly recieve In mono bridge mode operation the speaker load must speaker cables up to 6 mm (9AWG).
SPEAKER LOAD, BRIDGE MODE OPERATION SPEAKER CONNECTION EXAMPLES MULTIMODE OPERATION Multimode operation means that you connect one or two systems in normal stereo mode and then add TWO 4 OHM SPEAKERS IN PARALLEL. one or more subwoofers in mono bridge mode to the same speaker terminals.
