COLOSSUS DUAL MONO BLOCK AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS

BASIC APPLICATION

The Colossus Dual Mono Block amplifiers are capable of 4, 2 & 1 Ohm stereo and 4 & 2 bridged loads.

SINGLE AMP INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:

1.Connect the amp LINE INPUTS to the Radio/CD player full range or mono line out puts with good quality RCA interconnect cables.

2.Plug in the HFR-G1 bass remote module into the amp REMOTE INPUT jack.

3.Route a 0 gauge power cable directly to the vehicle battery with an in-line 300 amp fuse.

This will allow you to operate separate subs independently (on each channel L or R) at 4, 2 or 1 Ohm at up to 1600 watts or bridged across L & R to operate a single sub up to 3200 watts at 4 or 2 Ohms.

Note: The amp is not capable of 1 Ohm when bridged across L & R.

The crossovers and HFR-G1 Remote Module will operate both L & R channels simultaneously.

4.Connect a 0 gauge ground cable directly to chassis ground with in 36” of the amp.

-Be sure to remove any paint or primer from the ground point.

-Use a nut, bolt and lock washer to secure the ground cable to the chassis ground.

5.Connect the subwoofer(s) in accordance to the diagrams below.

Note: You can use the Radio/CD designated mono line output or a full range stereo line output.

For full range stereo line output, you will need an optional “Y-Adaptor” as shown

Note: The amplifier is capable of 4, 2 & 1 Ohms per channel in this configuration
