Massive Audio does not recommend installing DRAGO Series Amplifiers without the help of a
certified installer and does not warranty this amplifier for abuse caused by mis-installation. Please
have your installer consult with this user manual before installation.

are equipped with 0 AWG
power and grou es to power terminals labels as + 12V
a

1) INPUT (RCA)
Connect preamp signal cables from the head unit to the RCA input of the amplifier.
Minimum level input of 0.4V - 10V maximum is essential for correct operation.
2) SPEAKER INPUTS
This is a MONO input. Make sure the correct polarity and impedance is used.
Depending on the design and output of the system we recommend using a minimum 12 AWG.
Minimum impedance is 1Ohm. Both + and - are internally connected for a 1 Ohm final minimum load.
Due to the high performance nature of this amplifier we recommend a professional installation and no
warranty will cover mis-installation or misuse due to self installation.
3) GAIN LEVEL
Matches the output voltage of the head unit’s RCA line-outs to the input section.
We suggest you set the gain on the head unit at 80% max volume, then on the amplifier
starting at the lowest gain level, gradually increase until the clipping LED begins to flash. Then
slowly decrease the gain until the LED turns OFF to prevent clipping.
4) LOW PASS FILTER (80Hz ~ 12KHz)
Controls the low pass point for the speaker outputs
5) HIGH PASS FILTER (10Hz ~ 270Hz)
Allows cut off of low frequencies and subsonic signals.
6) BAND PASS FILTER (10Hz ~ 12KHz)
Provides gain control band pass frequencies.
7) PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER (35Hz ~ 120Hz)
Variable bass boost with 0 to +12dB gain
8) SUBSONIC FILTER FIXED @ 10Hz
9) BASS BOOST REMOTE INPUT
Gain Remote (Optional): Turn knob clockwise to increase level or counter clockwise to decrease level.
10) PROTECTION / CLIP / POWER LED’S
Protection LED illuminate RED when there is an issue
Clip LED will flash RED when 85% of amplifiers capacity limit is reached. If this occurs turn gains down.
Power LED illuminate GREEN when amplifier is active
11) COOLING FANS
The cooling fans will always be activated by turning on the device, operating at a fixed speed, removing hot
air and thus keeping the amplifier operating at its optimum temperature.
