Stereo or Mono Inputs
Your PYLE PPA amplifier can be operated in Stereo, Mono or Bridged mode, depending on the input source. If the input signal is mono, slide the Stereo/Mono/Bridged selector switch to MONO and the signal will be routed through both channels. If you wish to run the amplifier in bridged output mode, slide the switch to Bridged.
Speaker connections
You can connect 4 Ohm, 8 Ohm or 16 Ohm speakers to Channel 1 and/or Channel 2 of the amplifier. If you connect two pairs of speakers, be sure to follow these guidelines:
• Speakers which are connected to the same channel are |
part of a pair, and must be of the same impedance. |
• Speakers connected to different channels are NOT part |
Please read this manual throughly before you attempt to set up and use the amplifier. It contains a range of installation suggestions as well as instructions to ensure safe usage. Installed properly, you can expect years of

1.Prepare the speaker wire by removing about 1 inch of insulation from the end of the speaker wire you intend to connect to the amplifier. Then twist the exposed wire to secure all the wire strands.
NOTE: Use

Fan Cooling
Cooling system is automatically activated whenever amplifier is turned on. This forced air cooling system rapidly exhausts interior heat, reducing operating temperature and aiding performance.
Protection Circuit and Indicator
The indicator will be illuminated when the amplifier is powered on and at turn- on delay status; the indicator will be turned off after internal outputs are connected. The indicator will also be illuminated when the amplifier has abnormal problems, such as overload or excessive heat.
Connecting an equalizer or external signal processor Connect the processor’s OUT to the amplifier’s INPUT connectors.
