Using the power LED meters
Bridged Mode Operation
The meter pointer position indicates the amplifier output
power. For ease of reading in dark environments, the meter
is illuminated.
This amplifier can operate in a mono bridged output mode, if
your speakers can handle the following power output levels:
120VAC,60Hz/230VAC,50Hz
120VAC,60Hz/230VAC,50Hz
120VAC,60Hz/230VAC,50Hz

Using the Channel 1 and Channel 2 Output Level controls
Rotate output level gain clockwise to increase, or counter-
clockwise to decrease the output power. To get the best
performance with the least sound distortion, always adjust
the output level gain so the meter's pointer does not
continuously exceed the extreme right of the meter's scale.

As shown in the diagram below, connect the speaker's positive
(+) to the amplifier's red speakers left (1/2) terminals and
negative (-) to red speakers right (1/2) terminals.
The speaker right (+) on the amplifier is used as a negative (-)
terminal for a bridged connection.
CAUTION: It is possible to overdrive the amplifier by
setting output level gain too high, which may cause
damage or failure.

About the internal protect circuitry
Special clip circuitry incorporated into your PYLE PPA
amplifier’s design protects the amplifier and speaker system
from being damaged from overdriving power.
DO NOT USE
BLACK TERMINALS
Under normal conditions, the amplifier’s clip indicator will
flicker as the output power momentarily exceeds the level
as set by the output level gain selector.

However, under excessive output conditions, the protect
indicator lights remain on continuously, alerting you that
the special clip circuitry has become active. When this
occurs, you should simply reduce the output power level
by rotating the Master Volume control counterclockwise.
