The

installation

of

all

ORION

components

will

determine

the

overall

performance

result.

Improper

installation

will

not

only

limit

the

performance

of

your

ORION

system

but

also

potentially

compromise

the

reliability

of

this

amplifier.

To

ensure

proper

sonic

re¬

sults

and

component

reliability,

please

refer

to

your

Authorized

ORION

dealer

for

installation

assistance

or

advice.

If

you

decide

to

perform

the

installation

yourself,

read

the

entire

installation

section

of

this

manual

before

beginning

the

installation.

The

has

separate

switches.

There

are

six

different

setting

combinations.

Setting

1

is

the

Both

left

are

in

Phase.

Both

left

gain

controls

are

active.

This

setting

is

used

for

typical

two

channel

stereo

operation

(page

25).

Setting

2

inverts

the

output

of

the

left

channel.

The

left

channel

is

180°

out

of

phase

from

the

right

channel.

Both

left

and

right

gain

controls

are

active.

When

one

pair

of

RCA's

are

available

as

the

input,

this

setting

is

used

to

sum

mono

the

imput

for

bridging

the

amplifier

to

a

mono

load

(page

27).

This

configuration

is

also

useful

for

Tri-mode

operation

(page

31).

Additionally,

when

in

stereo

mode

(page

25),

inverting

one

channel

of

satellite

speakers

can

focus

imaging.

Setting

signal.

The

signal

passes

through

a

buffer

stage

so

that

an

infinite

number

of

HCCA

amplifiers

can

be

daisy

chained

without

signal

loss

or

overloading

of

the

source

unit.

This

maximizes

the

signal

output

and

minimizes

the

potential

for

system

noise.

When

the

switch

is

in

the

"GAIN"

position,

the

AUX

RCA

outputs

are

buffered

through

the

gain

stage

of

the

amplifier.

When

the

first

amplifier

in

the

signal

chain

is

set

this

way,

a

remote

gain

controller

can

be

installed

in

the

amplifier

and

act

as

a

"PRE-AMP"

controlling

the

overall

level

of

the

system.

Following

amplifiers

can

be

configured

in

either

the

"COPY"

configuration

with

their

gains

set

to

zero

as

the

"GAIN"

amp

is

now

controlling

the

gain

level

for

all

subsequent

amps.

This

eliminates

the

need

to

"gain

match"

multiple

amplifiers.

When

the

switch

is

in

the

"MASTER"

position,

the

AUX

RCA

outputs

are

buffered

through

the

gain

stage

of

the

amplifier

and

filtered

through

the

crossover

sec¬

tions

of

the

amplifier.

When

set

this

way,

the

amplifier's

gain

and

crossover

set¬

tings

are

sent

to

other

amplifiers

down

the

signal

chain.

This

can

be

useful

for

configuring

multiple

subwoofer

amplifiers

easily

in

a

large

SPL

system.

All

subse¬

quent

amplifiers

after

the

master

amp

will

be

in

the

"COPY"

position

and

have

their

gains

set

to

zero

and

all

crossovers

turned

off.

The

master

amplifier

will

con¬

trol

all

the

functions

of

the

slave

amps

via

the

"MASTER"

AUX

OUT

signal.

In

ad¬

dition,

one

RGC-1

gain

module

can

be

used

to

control

the

level

of

an

entire

sub

system

by

plugging

it

into

the

"MASTER"

The

crossover

section

of

the

HCCA

amplifier

is

continuously

variable

and

ex¬

tremely

flexible.

There

are

eight

different

crossover

configurations

possible

al¬

lowing

high-pass,

low-pass

and

band-pass

configurations.

The

high-pass

crossover

utilizes

the

INTELLi

Q

feature.

This

circuit

is

designed

to

optimize

the

performance

of

ORION

subwoofers

in

all

types

of

enclosures.

When

using

ORION

loudspeakers,

minor

deviations

from

the

recommended

frequency

ranges

can

provide

superior

results

de¬

pending

on

your

speaker

locations

and

your

vehicle

acoustics.

Setting

crossover

frequencies

higher

than

recommended

will

not

cause

damage

and

may

provide

superior

sonic

results

depending

on

your

system's

performance

goals.

Refer

to

your

loudspeaker

owner's

manual

for

assistance

in

choosing

the

proper

crossover

frequencies

for

your

system.

WARNING!!!

DO

NOT

set

crossover

frequencies

lower

than

the

speakers

recommended

operating

range.

This

can

cause

driver

failure

that

is

not

covered

by

manufacturer's

warranty.

WARNING!!!

When
