Applications

For your convenience, we’ve included several application diagrams to help you plan your own system installation. Figures 1 through 4 show how to config- ure the Decade Series power amplifiers for stereo, bridged-mono and tri-mode operation.

(Note: For simplicity, figures do not show power, remote and input connec- tions.)

Figure 1. This wiring diagram shows a DA4002, DA6502 amplifier set to stereo to drive a pair of full-range speakers. Figure 2. This wiring diagram shows a DA1002 amplifier set to bridge mode (mono) to drive a single subwoofer. Figure 3. This wiring diagram shows a DA4002, DA6502 amplifier set for tri- mode operation. For a desired crossover frequency, use the chart on page 4 to select an inductor for the subwoofer, and corresponding capacitors for left and right speakers.

Figure 4. This wiring diagram shows a DA3504 set to drive a pair of 5-1/4"

2-way speakers with the two front channels, and the rear channels set to drive a single subwoofer in bridge mode.
