Orion Xtreme Series User Manual

MONO MODE 1 CHANNEL WIRING
• Output can be configured left, right or mono output.
BRIDGING
All ORION amplifiers can be bridged by combining the power from
the left and right channels to have one channel of amplification. The
output capability is normally double the amount of a single stereo
channel. ORION amplifiers can be bridged to a single mono channel
or mixed-mono.
MONO MODE 1 CHANNEL
Use the right negative and the left positive speaker outputs.
Note: Any time you bridge an amplifier, each channel
"sees" half the impedance of the speaker load. For
example if you bridge a single 4 ohm speaker the
amplifier will "see" a 2 ohm stereo load. In this
configuration we recommend that you sum the left
and right inputs to mono, (see pagetO)
MIXED-MONO _
In this configuration, the woofer is run in mono and the left and
right speakers are in stereo. The stereo speakers are wired normally
and the woofer is wired using the right negative and left positive
speaker terminals. (See pagelO) Be sure to use the correct passive
crossovers when using this configuration. Capacitors are needed for
the left and right speakers and a coil Is needed for the woofer.
CAUTION: Passive crossover frequency should not overlap.
Failure to do so make cause damage to amplifiers
and load speakers.
MIXED MONO WIRING
• Passive Crossover Frequencies must not overlap!
• The lowest recommended impedance is 2Q per channel stereo.
• The lowest recommended impedance is 4Q bridged mono.
• Amplifier output set to full range.
