EATURES AND BENEFITS
DC Offset Protection
This circuit protects the output of the amplifier against DC voltage. If for some reason DC
voltage is detected at the output stage, the amplifier will shut down protecting the
speakers from direct current.
Short Circuit Protection
This circuit protects the amplifier from damage due to a short found in the speakers or
wiring. If one of the speakers or its wiring comes in contact with ground, the amplifier will
shut down. To resume normal operation, correct the problem and turn the head unit off,
then back on. The amplifier will reset and play again.
Thermal Protection
To protect the amplifier circuitry against damage caused by prolonged exposure to high
temperatures, a thermal protection circuit is activated if the amplifier reaches
excessively high operating temperature. Once the thermal circuit is activated, the
amplifier will shut down to cool off. The amplifier will automatically turn back on once it
cools down to a safe operating temperature.
Built-in Crossover
The “MGA” amplifiers include a built-in variable high and low pass crossovers. The
crossover features a variable frequency selection (55Hz ~ 6kHz) for precise high or low
pass filtering.
Bass Boost
For added low frequency performance the amplifiers include a variable 0 ~16dB bass boost.
Power Fusing
This protects the amplifier against short circuits and excessive current.
Remote Turn-on
Automatically turns amplifier on when connected to the head unit's remote output. The
amplifier will turn on and off with the head unit to save current consumption. This control
also operates the reset circuit for the amplifier's protection. It must be connected with
the head unit in order to reset protection circuits.
Adjustable Input Sensitivity
Allows you to fine-tune the level matching between your source and the power amplifier.
