SYSTEM PLANNING SYSTEM 1 The easiest way to maximize the performance for your ORION XTREME amplifier is to properly plan your sys- tem. By planning your system, you can avoid situation where the performance of the reliability of your system is compromised.
SYSTEM PLANNING SYSTEM 2 page 11 + – + – + – + – – + + – + – System 2 adds a subwoofer to system 1. Amplifier 1 is configured high-pas for the satellite speakers and Amplifier 2 is configured low-pass for a single 4 Ω sub- woofer .
SYSTEM PLANNING SYSTEM 3 page 12 + – + – + – + – – + + – + – + –.
System 3 uses a 4-channel amplifier to drive an entire system. The front channels are configured high-pass operation for satellites. Th e rear channels are configured low-pass for two dual voice coil subwoofers.

SYSTEM PLANNING SYSTEM 5 System 5 uses two 4-channel amplifiers for the front and rear satellites and two 2-channel amplifiers for two subwoofers. This system is designed to really rock.
INST ALLA TION 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 .
page 19 POWER CONNECTIONS • Minimum 8 gauge power and ground cable is recommended for acceptable performance • Fuse power wire less than 18” from battery • Ground amplifier to a good chassis g.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS 4-CHANNEL STEREO CONFIGURA TION • Front and rear channel lowest recommended impedance is 2 Ω stereo • Crossover , output and gain configurations are independently adjustable between the front and rear channels • 2-channel or 4-channel input can be used for this configuration.
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS 3-CHANNEL STEREO/BRIDGED CONFIGURA TION • Front channels are configured for 2-channel stereo operation • Front channel lowest recommended impedance is 2 Ω stereo • Rear cha.
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS TWO-CHANNEL BRIDGED CONFIGURA TION • Front and rear channels are configured for bridged 2- channel operation • Lowest recommended impedance for both front and rear channels is .
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS TRI-MODE 6-CHANNEL CONFIGURA TION • Lowest recommended impedance is 2 Ω stereo and 4 Ω bridged mono • Front and rear outputs must be set for full range operation • Front and rear outputs must be configured for stereo operation • Passive crossover frequencies must not overlap.
OUTPUT CONFIGURA TIONS Three position switches determine output configuration for the XTREME amplifiers. Each stereo pair of channels can be configure d in either stereo, summed-bridged and bridged-mono. The switch or switches are located on he outermost edge of the amplifier .
4-CHANNEL AMPLIFIER INPUT CONFIGURA TIONS The 2-channel input / 4-channel input switch routes RCA input from the front RCA inputs to the rear section of the amplifier . T his allows the XTREME 4-channel amplifier to utilize a single set of RCAs to feed signal to both the front and rear channels of the amplifier .
FINE TUNING THE CROSSOVER The crossover section is marked at four frequency points for ease of system adjustment. These points are 45Hz, 175Hz, 600Hz and 5,000Hz. Specific crossover points can be chosen based on the recom- mended operational bandwidth of your speakers.
CHOOSING MOUNTING LOCA TIONS The location of your XTREMEamplifier will depend on several important issues. Due to the low profile size of the XTREME amplifiers, there are many possible installation locations that will yield satisfactory amplifier performance.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS AND INST ALLA TION TIPS Caution: Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake lines, hydraulic lines, vacuum lines, or electrical wiring when working on your vehicle. Disconnect the vehicle’ s ground wire at the battery before making or breaking connections to the audio system’ s power supply te r minals.
STEP BY STEP INST ALLA TION Step 1 Determine the location for the amplifier . Refer to the Mounting Locations section in this manual for detailed infor matio n. Step 2 Decide on the system configuration for your amplifier . For system suggestions, refer to the System Planning section of t his manual.
After you have completed the installation, you need to test the system. This will help ensure years of trouble-free operation. Please refer to the listed steps below when testing the sound of your ORION XTREME system. Step 1 Check all the wiring connections to be sure they are correct and secure.
ADJUSTING THE SOUND OF THE SYSTEM page 34 Once you have checked the system’ s operation, adjust the sound of the system. Adjusting the sound of the system is accomplish ed by setting the level controls and adjusting the internal crossovers. Step 1 T urn the signal source volume control down all the way .

SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE ACTION TO T AKE No output Low or no remote turn-on input Check remote turn-on voltage output at amplifier and fix as needed. Fuse blown Check power wire integrity and check for speaker shorts. Fix as needed and replace fuse. Power wires not connected Check power wire and ground connections and fix or replace as needed.
Distorted output Internal crossover not set properly Readjust crossovers. Refer to the Internal Crossover section of this for speakers manual for detailed instructions. Speakers are blown Check system with know working speakers and fix or replace as needed.

page 39 II . DECK TO AMP . Using a new set of signal cables, connect one channel from the output of the deck directly into one channel of your clean amp.
page 40 probable that the component has inadequate isolation. Solutions include, changing components or permanently adding an external isolated power supply (Call Autosound 2000 at 209-465-3450 for info on isolated power supplies). SUMMA TION During the design stage of your vehicles, try to avoid using extra batteries and high output alternators.
The more components installed on a signal path, the more chances for noise to enter a system. The more electrical accessories on a car , the more noise will be produced by the alternator . This information was compiled from more than 20 years of working in car audio.
