OWNER'S MANUAL

DESCRIPTION

The Clarion APX600.5 five channel car audio amplifier is an excellent choice for creating a variety of multi-channel sound systems. It features built-in system design flexibility that allows you to create a 3, 4, or 5 channel amplifier system with a flip of a switch. You can also configure the front, rear and subwoofer amplifier sections to drive a set of satellite speakers and/or subwoofer.

The built-in 12 dB per octave electronic crossover lets you custom tailor the sound of the front and rear channels, using two independent filters with adjustable crossover frequencies for high-pass or low-pass filtering.

The amplifier also uses an unregulated MOSFET power supply for superior control of output wattage. A toroid-coil transformer yields maximum power transfer with minimum heat loss. Careful circuit design keeps AM RFI at low levels, so you won’t hear unwanted noise when the level is cranked up. Protection circuits safeguard the amplifier when overheating, speaker shorts or improper load conditions occur.

The main connections and controls are on the end panels and are easy to understand. System configuration switches and signal flow chart are on the bottom panel of the amplifier. Gold-plated RCA and barrier connectors are used to ensure the best electrical connection for your system.
