1. FEATURES The Clarion XR2220, XR2420, and XR2120 amplifiers fit a variety of system configurations and provide these features: Full frequency response with low distortion and exceptional signal-to-noise performance. Advanced circuitry design provides bridgeable outputs for use in a variety of applications.
Do not pour liquid or poke foreign objects into the unit. Water and humidity will damage internal circuitry. If the unit becomes wet, turn off all power and ask your authorized Clarion dealer to clean or service the unit.
These switches are equipped with 12dB per octave electronic filters for precise frequency attenuation with minimal phase distortion. To activate each filter, slide the X-Over mode switch to either HP or LP (XR2420 and XR2220 only). Connecting a source unit without RCA outputs The speaker level inputs provide connections for a high-level stereo source.
Although any moving air dissipates heat, cool air should run along the length of the fins rather than across them. CAUTION Although Clarion amplifiers include heat sinks and protection circuits, mounting an amplifier in a tight space without any air movement will damage the unit’s internal circuitry over time.
Adding an external fuse protects the electrical system from short circuits that can result in a fire. Do not open the case. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If you require assistance, consult your Clarion dealer or an authorized Clarion service center. XR2220/XR2420/XR2120...
