OWNERS MANUAL AND
INSTALLATION GUIDE
INTRODUCTION
Several new features appearing for the first time in this LINEAR POWER™
amplifier; new in the 3002
include, true compatibility to 2 ohm and 4 ohm

speaker impedances, switchable Bridged/Mono capability, a turn on delay to
avoid speaker damage, control circuitry for an optional cooling fan, and the new
"Dynamics Improving Processor©" circuit. The "Dynamics Improving
Processor©"(DIP switch) provides a well controlled and precise redistribution of
power in the bass region to help overcome the factors in the mobile environment
that work against the auto-sound installer: poor speaker placement, the masking
effect of a car in motion, and the natural tendency of most speakers to roll off too
soon in the low bass region. The net result is accurate musical reproduction that
you can take with you. Isn't that what it's all about?
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
POWER SUPPLY: Self oscillating for reliability and efficiency. The transformer is
epoxy dipped for extreme vibration resistance. Banks of high-speed TO-3
switching transistors provide massive current reserves. LINEAR POWER™
amplifier design incorporates an unregulated power supply for increased dynamic
headroom and efficiency.
OUTPUT STAGES: Transformerless, direct coupled and fully complimentary.
Output transistors are high current and low distortion TO-3 devices, operating at
a fraction of their limitations. The TO-3 output stages of these amplifiers will
deliver a significant increase in power into 2-ohm stereo loads. Amplifier reliability
is accomplished by operating the output transistors at 50% of their maximum
rating even into a 2-ohm stereo load. In 4-ohm stereo, the output devices in the
3002
work at less than 30% of their design capabilities as engineered by
