AMPLIFIER FEATURE DESCRIPTIONS
GROUND POUNDER GPV AMPLIFIERS: APOWER LED indicates the powered up and turned on condition.
Each model is capable of 4 & 2-Ohms stereo per channel, or 4-Ohms mono bridged operation !
!All Crunch amplifiers feature a comprehensive diagnostic system, with speaker lead short circuit,
except the mono amps which are capable of 4, 2 and 1-Ohm loads. !
and amplifier DC faults indicated by the red “PROTECT” LED.
!Tri-Mode operation with any stereo pair of amplifier channels is possible, as with all bridgeable CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE ANY AMPLIFIER BELOW THE INTENDED IMPEDANCE. YOU
amplifiers. !
!The input sensitivities for rated output powers are variable from 0.2 volts to 5 volts on multi channel WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE AMPLIFIER THAT WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE
models and 0.2 volts to 6-9 volts on mono models. WARRANTY PRINTED IN THE BACK OF THE MANUAL. 2 & 4 Channel amps are capable of 4
!All crossovers are fully variable in their respective ranges. and 2-Ohms wired stereo and 4-Ohms wired mono bridged. The mono amps are capable of 4, 2
