M Series amplifiers are designed to operate from a car’ s +12 volt, negative ground electrical system. The power and ground cables should be a minimum of 8 gauge. Depending upon the complexity of your system, larger gauge wire may be needed. The main power cable should run from the amplifier location, through the vehi- cle to the battery , avoidi[...]

antenna (remote) turn-on lead which will turn on the amplifier when the source unit is activated. If this is unavailable, a switched 12 volt source must be used. Run a wire from the amplifier location through the vehicle to the switched 12 V olt source. Observe the same precau- tions for routing this cable that you followed for running the power ca[...]

Deriving the mono channel is accomplished by using the left channel posi- tive wire as the positive speaker wire and the right channel negative wire as the negative speaker wire. It is important that a minimum 4 Ohm imped- ance be observed. Inputs M Series Amplifiers feature RCA inputs only . Run RCA cables from your sound source to the inputs of t[...]

If this should occur , simply reduce the in[...]

OPTIONAL ACCESSORY MODULES Xtant optional accessory modules are easily and quickly installed by your Authorized Xtant Dealer . The upgrade modules snap into place on the amplifier’ s PC board when the top of the unit is removed. These accessories enhance your entire system, expand- ing and customizing performance for your unique application. P AR[...]

16 Adding Accessories Modules Xtant offers two types of accessory modules which are designed for either “Horizontal” or “V ertical” mounting. The docking port(s), located on the amplifi- er’ s circuit board, labeled Horiz Acc Port will accept any module, while the port(s) labeled “V er t” will only accept modules designed for vertical[...]

17 Setting the 121m’ s Low P ass crossover The 121m comes with an on-board, low pass crossover . This type of electronic crossover is needed when playing most subwoofer systems. The crossover is a 12 dB per octave “Butterworth” configuration with a fixed crossover frequency of 90 Hz. The amplifier is shipped with the low pass crossover active[...]

18 TroubleShooting DIAGNOSTIC LED’ S The Red LED indicates that the amplifier is on. The Y ellow LED indicates that an over -current condition (low imped- ance) exist and will turn the amp’ s output power down to maintain unin- terrupted operation. The Y ellow LED will light if a speaker load falls below the M Series’ 2 Ω rating and/or a sp[...]
