AMPLIFIER WIRING

NOTE: Power and speaker connections to the amplifier should be made prior to final positioning and mounting of the amplifier in the vehicle.

Power Connections

●Orion HP-2300 Fuse Size: 1 x 20 AMP ATC.

●Orion HP-2400 Fuse Size: 1 x 30 AMP ATC.

●Orion HP-2600 Fuse Size: 2 x 20 AMP ATC.

●Orion HP-4600 Fuse Size: 2 x 20 AMP ATC.

●Power connections accept up to 4 AWG wire.

●4 AWG power and ground wire recommended for optimal performance.

●Connect 12V+ to the battery through fuse holder. This connection provides +12V main power to the amplifier.

●Power wire must be fused no more than 12" from battery.

●Ground amplifier to a good chassis ground as close as possible to the amplifier.

●Connect REM terminal to remote turn-on lead from source unit. This connection provides +12V power to turn-on the amplifier.

●Add extra ground wire between the negative terminal of the battery and the chassis.

NOTE: The addition of a ground wire from the battery to the chassis of the vehicle improves the ability of the battery to supply power to the amplifier. This is recom- mended because the current delivery of the factory electrical system was designed only to accommodate electronics supplied by the auto manufacturer.

High Level Input Harness

The high level harness is connected to the speaker terminals of the vehicle. Make sure that the polarity is observed in connection to the right and left channel speakers. Signal ground must be connected to a chassis ground.
