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
3.Route a 0 gauge power cable directly to the vehicle battery with an
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
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.
