REFERENCE POWER SUPPLY DESIGN

The REFERENCE amplifiers employ an extremely efficient unregulated

voltage available when the vehicle is running. The two major advantages of the

unregulated power supply are:

added continuous power with higher voltages (see chart below)

Because of the dynamic properties of most music, all audiocomponents should

be able to react accordingly. Thanks to their unregulated power supplies, the

REFERENCE amplifiers can comfortably exceed their rated power for dynamic

portions of the music.

PASSIVE AND ELECTRONIC CROSSOVERS

Your REFERENCE amplifier is unique in its ability to switch between Coherent

Bridged Mono, and Mixed Mono output mode. The REFERENCE

are capable of driving a complete

and satellite system in

the Mixed Mono

However,

lowest distortion, maximum

output, and best sound quality, we recommend that you

an electronic

crossover and multiple channels of

If a single REFERENCE amplifier is to drive a

and satellite system,

passive high and low pass crossovers will be necessary. Use the charts on

pages 7 and to determine the values of the crossover components.
