CAUTION!
In Tri- mode operation, the amplifier must see a 2 Ohm load or higher for
the stereo satellites and no lower than 4 Ohms for the subwoofer(s). Any lower than the
above mentioned impedance will cause the amplifier to overheat and possibly cause
permanent damage to the amplifier.

The amplifier is capable of running in a Mono / Stereo mode. This feature gives the
amplifier the ability to run stereo satellites (midbass & tweeter) simultaneously with
a mono subwoofer.
These connections are more complicated because they require the use of passive
crossover networks (Not provided) to divide the frequencies to the speakers. We
have included a sample diagram for 4 Ohm connections. If you wish to use multiple
speakers to achieve a lower impedance and higher power, it is strongly
recommended that you seek professional advice from your BAZOOKAd retailer
before attempting to make these connections.
Please Note: In the Tri-mode configuration, the amplifier’s built-in crossover must
be set to the ”FLAT” position so the speakers receive full range output.
