Amplifier and Crossover Input: U.S. Amps feature a unique isolated input section that will accept signal voltages from 250 mv to 10 volts. The input section also provides amplifier ground isolation for the prevention of system and engine noise.
US-X2 US-X2 ACTIVE ELECTRONIC CROSSOVERS The US-X2 and US-X2R are two-way crossovers that “split” the full-range audio signal into two groups of frequencies- high and low. Each group is sent to a dedicated amplifier, which in turn, powers a speaker or speakers that are best suited to play those frequencies.

HIGH PASS: 500Hz-5Khz U.S. Amps crossovers feature an isolated input and amplifier section to keep the system free of noise. It is important to ground the crossover input for proper operation. Do not use a floating ground isolator with this or any other U.S. Amps product.
BRIDGING YOUR U.S. AMP All U.S. Amps listed in the following section can be used in the BRIDGED mode, meaning that both channels of the amplifier are used together as a powerful single channel, usually to drive a group of subwoofers.

A thing fails to take into account the physical limitations of friction and loss, let alone the mechanical limitations of components and design. These are considerable factors. Luckily for you, U.S. Amps overcompensates from this standpoint, and delivers TRUE RATED 2 ohm per channel performance. Most...
GETTING WIRED Once you have established the current needs of your system, it will be of UTMOST IMPORTANCE to properly fuse the amplifier. Remember, power connections are always the last thing. There cannot be enough emphasis placed on the importance of proper fusing. Fuses prevent catastrophes.
AMPLIFIER PROTECTION: SAT (Smart Amp Technology) SAT is an exclusive U.S. Amps technology that continuously monitors amplifier functions to insure proper connection, supply voltage, and operating temperature. In the event of a fault condition SAT will trigger a protection circuit to immediately shut down the amplifier.

To be sure, “Class D” is (was) a step in the right direction. It does work, and works rather well in certain instances. It is, however, a crude and incomplete technology when compared to T-Class™ and DPP. The underlying technology of U.S. Amps T-Class™ does not use PWM and is not pure analog. T-Class™...

0.04%. Low IHF-IM reduces “listening fatigue”, even at excessive volume levels. By any measure these superb specifications fall within the esoteric realm of audiophile performance. U.S. Amps' T-Class™ provides power conversion efficiencies of 80% to more than 90%, equal to or better than “Class D”.
