Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Is the power supply plenum rated?
A: No, only the amplifier is plenum rated,
to maintain plenum approval, the
power supply should be mounted below
the plenum area as shown in the picture.
Q: What are the wire nuts for?
A: In strict plenum installations, the wire
nuts can be used to make a splice from
the power supplies 18V (non plenum
rated) wire to plenum rated speaker wire
(18AWG or thicker).
The splice typically resides in the pipe.
Q:What ohm level can the amplifier
tolerate?
A: The amplifier is designed to easily
support 4 ohm loads.
This means that you can attach as
many as four, 16 ohm speakers per
channel for a total of eight speakers
per amp, or two 8 ohm speakers per
channel for a total of 4 speakers.
Q: Why are there +/- marks over both
power connections?
A: The +/- marks are to indicate that the
amplifier is polarity tolerant. In other
words, it is impossible for the power
supply to be hooked up backwards.
In addition, since the power supply is
regulated it will shut down if it is over-
loaded or shorted out. Once the over-
load is removed, the power supply will
resume its normal operation.
Q: Will the amplifier overheat if it is put in
the plenum area in hot climates?
A: No, the amplifier is specifically designed
for high-temperature applications. The
massive heat-sink dissipates heat very
well, even in the most extreme conditions.
However, you should use care not to cover
the amplifier with insulation.
