END PANEL LAYOUT 1. Power LED - when lit indicates that the amplifier is on. 2. Stereo/Mono Switch - configures the amplifier for one or two inputs. 3. Gain Control - continuously adjusts from 200mV to 5V for full power output. 4. Copy/Master Switch - Determines the output of the RCA outputs. 5. RCA Inputs - accepts RCA input from a source unit, preamplifier, or equalizer. 6. RCA Outputs - provides easy connection to additional amplifiers. 7. Low-Pass Crossover Switch - activates 2nd order low

Stereo / Mono Input Configuration The STEREO / MONO switch routes input from the front inputs to the rear section of the amplifier. This allows the Orion 4002 and 6002 amplifiers to utilize a single RCA or high- level input to feed signal to both the right and left channels of the amplifier. When the switch is to the right (MONO position), signal from the left input is routed to the right channel. When the switch is to the left (STEREO position), right and left inputs are inde- pendent. This all

High-Pass Crossover When the switch is to the right (OFF position), the high-pass crossover is bypassed. When the switch is to the left (ON position), the high-pass crossover is active. The high-pass crossover is continuously variable from 20Hz to 3kHz. High-Pass Woofers The high-pass crossover is continuously variable from 20Hz to 3kHz. The high-pass crossover is now optimized for use as a subsonic filter for subwoofers. Additionally, boost can be added for improved bass output while still prot

Speaker Connections Two-Channel Stereo Configuration ● Lowest recommended impedance is 2W stereo. ● Stereo input should be used for this configuration. ● Outputs can be configured for high-pass, low-pass, or full range operation. Mono Bridged Configuration ● Lowest recommended impedance is 4W bridged mono. ● Mono or stereo input can be used for this configuration. ● Outputs can be configured for high-pass, low-pass, or full range operation. ● Output is configured as summed bridged which is ideal

Single-Channel Bridged Configuration ● Lowest recommended impedance is 4W mono. ● Mono input must be used for this configuration. Only the Left input is used. ● Outputs can be configured for high-pass, low-pass, or full range operation. ● Outputs are configured for single-channel bridged operation which is ideal for separate left or right channel subwoofer applications. Tri-Mode Three-Channel Configuration ● Lowest recommended impedance is 2W stereo and 4W bridged mono. ● Stereo operation must b

AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION Choosing Mounting Locations The location of your amplifier will depend on several important issues. Due to the low pro- file size of the Orion amplifiers, there are many possible installation locations that will yield satisfactory amplifier performance. Always mount the amplifier in a place that protects the amplifier from the elements. In addition, mount the amplifier on a stable, flat surface. NOTE: Mounting amplifiers upside down is not recommended and may cause premat

Power for systems with a single amplifier can be supplied by most automotive electrical sys- tems. Systems with multiple amplifiers may require a higher capacity battery, alternator or the use of a storage capacitor. We strongly recommend the use of a Directed Audio Essentials power capacitor with an extra battery in larger stereo systems. Orion amplifiers generate a certain amount of heat as part of normal operation. Be sure the area around the amplifier is unobstructed to allow adequate air ci

amplifier is twisted or bent. Step 6 Turn the vehicle's key switch to the off position. Step 7 Disconnect the vehicle's battery ground terminal. Step 8 Connect power wires to the amplifier (ground first, then 12 V(+) and RGC). Step 9 Connect the RCA and speaker wires to the amplifier. Check the quality of your speakers and signal connections. This will determine the ultimate per- formance of your Orion amplifier. Refer to the Signal Input and Output Level Controls and Speaker Connections section

Adjusting the Sound of the System Once you have checked the system's operation, adjust the sound of the system. Adjusting the sound of the system is accomplished by setting the level controls and adjusting the internal crossovers. Step 1 Turn the signal source volume control all the way down. Set any tone con- trols to their flat or defeated positions. This includes the loudness control. Step 2 Turn the level controls of the amplifier to their minimum positions. Step 3 Choose music with high dyn
