Speaker Wiring
The Speaker Wiring diagrams illustrate the following four options for connecting speakers and
subwoofers to the PS amps:
•
Two Speakers
•
Two Subwoofers
•
Bridged Subwoofer
•
Tri-Mode
Note: When running a subwoofer and two full-range speakers together (tri-mode
operation), passive high and low pass filters must be used. Failure to install these filters
may cause damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers.
