All Carbon Series Amplifier Models Feature:

•Polk’s Maximum Dynamic Headroom (MDH) Power Supply allows Polk/MOMO Amplifiers to deliver more instantaneous power peaks, easily driving your speakers during musical peaks. Get “max headroom” (!) and more power for low impedance loads.

•Each model features fully adjustable electronic crossovers to power any install using any speakers on the market.

•Each model also features the exclusive Polk/MOMO Pre-EQ Switch, which optimizes the crossovers for use with Polk/MOMO Ultra High Performance Speakers and Subwoofers so you can take high performance to whole new level.

•5-Way Smart System Protection (SSP) circuits: Power and Ground-Reversal Protection, Thermal and Short Protection, Current Overdraw and Low Impedance Protection circuits with auto- Standby Mode ensure safety, reliability and durability.

•Hideaway Cover Plate conceals the wiring and the “Set It Once” user-adjustable controls for clean-looking, fiddle-free installs.

•Polk Performance Certificate attests to each individual amp’s Power Rating, and serial number.

•High-density split-dome convection heat sinks with more surface area than standard fins for extreme heat dissipation and a long, reliable life of high amplification. No need for noisy fans.

•High damping factor improves driver control for tighter, punchier bass.

•Subsonic Filter (15Hz@24dB/octave) for an extra level of speaker protection.

•Remote Subwoofer Level Control available on all models (a stock feature on the mono sub amp).

Safe Limits of Operation

Your Polk Audio AutoSound equipment is constructed of the highest quality materials for years of trouble-free performance. You should be aware that damage to loudspeakers can occur when an amplifier, regardless of its wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than its power can clearly produce. Operation at this level can result in very high levels of audible distortion originat- ing in the amplifier, which can add a harsh, gritty sound to your listening material. If you hear distortion—turn it down or risk damaging your speakers. You can damage any speaker, regardless of power rating, if you push any amplifier, regardless of power rating, to the point of distortion.
