2. AC POWER SWITCH (Located on the front of the unit. See diagram on page 9.)
A two-position power switch is on the right side of the front panel. With the top portion of the switch
pushed to the "IN" position the amplifier is "ON". Press the bottom portion of the switch to the
"IN" position to turn the unit "OFF".
3. POWER LED (Located on the front of the unit. See diagram on page 9.)
The Power LEDs illuminate to indicate the amplifier is turned on.

SELECTION
Once you have provided proper AC power to the amplifier, you may now connect to the inputs and outputs.
Remember to do this while the power to the unit is turned off (Power LED are not lit). The rear panel of your
GPS Series amplifier provides a central location for all input and output connections. Regardless of the GPS
model, all input connections are located at the bottom-center portion of the rear panel and all output
connections are located at the top-center portion. In addition, your amplifier can operate in either stereo or
bridged (mono) mode. All GPS Series amplifiers have DDT compression. However, only GPS models 900 and
1500 have a switch to defeat this feature. This section will describe these areas of your GPS Series amplifier in
detail.

MODE SELECTION

4. MODE SWITCH
This switch determines which mode your amplifier will operate in. Before connecting your input signal
and speaker cables to the amp, you must determine how you want the amp to function. Two modes of
operation are offered on your amplifier, stereo or bridged (seperate).
STEREO:
When we use the term "stereo" we are referring to two channels, not necessarily left and right.
Therefore, in "stereo" mode there are essentially two power amps regardless of input type. You may
use a stereo input, one stereo input to each channel of the GPS, or you may send two mono inputs to
the GPS in the same manner. A good example of two separate inputs would be the use of one channel
for mono mains and one channel for mono monitor signals. In order to select the "stereo" mode of
operation you must place the Mode Switch in the "out" position. In this mode, Channel A Output is
supplied by the Channel A Input. Channel B Output is supplied by Channel B Input.
BRIDGED OR MONO:
In the "bridge" mode the two channels of the amplifier combine to form a single mono channel. The
benefit of using your amplifier in this mode is that the power is doubled. Refer to the specifications in
this manual for detailed output power specs on your specific model. To use the GPS Series amp in
