AMPLIFIeR WIRInG
Power Connections
•
Power connections accept up to 4 AWG wire .
•
4 AWG power and ground wire recommended for optimal per-
formance .
•
Connect 12V+ to the battery through fuse holder . this connec-
tion provides +12V main power to the amplifier .
•
Power wire must be fused no more than 12" from battery .
•
Ground amplifier to a good chassis ground as close as possible to
the amplifier .
•
Recommended fuses are 50A for the XtR2502, and 100A for the
XtR5002 .
•
Connect ReM terminal to remote turn-on lead from source unit .
this connection provides +12V power to turn-on the amplifier .
•
Add extra ground wire between the negative terminal of the
battery and the chassis .
NOTE: the addition of a ground wire from the battery to the chassis
of the vehicle improves the ability of the battery to supply power to
the amplifier . this is recommended because the current delivery of the
factory electrical system was designed only to accommodate electron-
ics supplied by the auto manufacturer .

Speaker Connections XTR2502 and XTR5002
the orion XtR2502 and XtR5002 amplifiers offer one positive and one
negative output terminal for ease of connecting channel 1 and/or 2
outputs to the speakers . the amplifiers are stable to 2Ω per channel .
see diagrams below .
one Channel/two Channel Configuration
•
Lowest recommended impedance is 2
•
outputs can be configured for high-pass, low-pass, or full range
operation .
