SOUNDSTREAM Granite 60.2, Granite 120.4 and Granite 180.
CONGRATULATlONS You now own the Soundstream Granite Amplifier, the result of a unique design and engineering philosophy. To maximize the performance of your system, we recommend that you thoroughly acquaint yourself with its capabilities and features. Please retain this manual and your sales and installation receipts for future reference.
l l l Internal Signal Routing (Granite 120.4, Granite 180.6) - Permits one pair of signal cables to drive all 4 channels (Granite 120.4) or two pairs of signal cables to drive all 6 channels (Granite 180.6). Drive Delay Muted Tunum/off Circuit - a unique circuit which completely eliminates any amplifier-related turn-on/off noises. Flexible Input Sensitivity - accepts input voltages from 100 mV to 2.5 V, which permits maximum output from amplifier with virtually any source unit.

PASSIVE AND ELECTRONlC CROSSOyERS Your Granite amplifier is capable of driving a complete subwoofer and satellite sys tern in the Mixed Mono configuration. However, for the lowest distortion and the maximum output and sound quality, we recommend that you use electronic crossovers and multiple channels of amplification, as provided in the Granite 120.4 and the Granite 180.6.

least 16 gauge speaker wire, preferably a flexible multi-strand cable, such as Soundstream Speaker 120 or Speaker 160. C. Carefully run the positive power cable from the battery to a fuse or circuit breaker and then to the amplilier. Connect the lead to the battery via either a fuse or a circuit breaker within 18 inches of the battery. Leave the fuse out or the circuit breaker off until the installation is otherwise finished.
PROTECTBON ClRClJmS Your Granite amplifier is protected against both overheating and short circuits by means of the following circuits: l A main power supply fuse l A fail-safe them-ral protection circuit activating at 85°C. .
