Glossary

The following terms are used in this manual. Since they may be unfamiliar, the following definitions are provided.

AM II	Adaptive MOSFET II is an advanced protection circuit
	designed to prevent amplifier shut-off due to low load imped-
	ance. AM II optimizes output power to maintain uninterrupted
	operation whenever the amplifier senses a load impedance of
	less than two Ohms. An L. E. D. signals when AM II is working,

Mixed Mono:

PWM

Combining two amplifier channels into one channel, typically used to create a mono output.

The ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The gain control allows adjustment to the amplifier's output level for varying input levels.

Light Emitting Diode. Indicates power on / off and when AM II

is working.

Measurement of speaker(s) resistance / reactance that the

amplifier must drive.

The amplifier's ability to play the Left and Right Stereo channels while playing a third (bridged) mono channel.

Pulse-Width Modulated power supply. Our PWM maintains a regulated output voltage and a high conversion efficiency over the input supply range of 11 - 15 VDC. The result is less demand on the battery, lower (amplifier) operating temperature, and extremely accurate low frequency reproduction.

Output Short Circuit Protection

Low Impedance Protection with Diagnostic L.E.D.

Adjustable Input Sensitivity

2 Gold RCA and DIN Input Connectors

PPI's Exclusive Wire Connection System

Three Year Limited Warranty

Manufactured in the U.S.A.

Remote Turn-On: Low current automatic switching circuit that turns the amplifier on and off. Typically connected to the remote antenna or amp turn-on lead of most car radios, cassette, or CD players.
