Profile Clarus CL440 - Manual (Page 13)

CAUTION! In Tri- mode operation, the amplifier must see a 2 Ohm load or higher for the
stereo satellites and no lower than 4 Ohms for the subwoofer(s). Any lower than the
above mentioned impedance will cause the amplifier to overheat and possibly cause
permanent damage to the amplifier.

The amplifier is capable of running in a Mono / Stereo mode. This feature gives the amplifier
the ability to run stereo satellites (midbass & tweeter) simultaneously with a mono subwoofer.
These connections are more complicated because they require the use of passive crossover
networks (Not provided) to divide the frequencies to the speakers. We have included a sample
diagram for 4 Ohm connections. If you wish to use multiple speakers to achieve a lower
impedance and higher power, it is strongly recommended that you seek professional advice
from your Profile retailer before attempting to make these connections.
Please Note: In the Tri-mode configuration, the amplifier's built-in crossover must be set to
the "OFF" position so the speakers receive full range output.
