DESIGN FEATURES SETTING THE CROSSOVER MODES Handcrafted in the U.S.A. with mil-spec glass epoxy circuit boards, low-loss connections, gold plated input connectors, and metal film resistors. The Soundstream SA.120, 244, & 245 incorporate a replaceable S.
4 INST ALLATION STEP 2 t In most car audio installations, there is a tendency for a “midbass boom.” Because of their interior dimensions, most cars will resonate or ring at these midbass frequencies. If we design the system so there is less musical information in this region, the final response is very smooth and natural sounding.
4 INST ALLATION STEP 3 t WIRING POWER AND GROUND To assure maximum output from your amplifier, use high quality, low-loss power and ground cables. Soundstream SA amplifiers incorporate gold-plated barrier strips for maximum power transfer and protection from corrosion.
INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING 7. AMPLIFIER LOCATION The SA amplifiers employ highly efficient circuitry and a unique Chassisinkm design to maintain lower operating temperatures. Additional cooling may be required if the amplifier is located in a tightly confined area, or when driving especially low impedance loads at extremely high levels.

PROTECTION CIRCUITRY SERVICE Your SA amplifier is protected against both overheating and short circuits by means of the following circuits: l Main power supply fuses. l A fail-safe thermal protection circuit activating at 95°C. l Self-resetting circuit breakers to protect against short circuits.
