TESTING THE SYSTEM
After you have completed the installation, you need to test the system. This will help ensure years of trouble free operation. Please re-
fer to the listed steps below when testing the sound of your ORION XTREME system.
Step 1 Check all the wiring connections to be sure they are correct and secure.
Step 2 Turn the signal source volume control down all the way. Set any tone controls to their flat or defeated positions.
This includes the loudness control.
Step 3 Turn the level controls of the amplifier to their minimum positions.
Step 4 Turn the source unit on. Check to see if the remote power LED located on the connection side of the amplifier is on.
If not, please refer to the power connections section and the trouble shooting section of this manual for instructions.
Step 5 If using a aftermarket source unit, turn the level controls of the amplifier about one quarter of a turn. Slowly in
crease the volume level of the source unit to so that you can hear the output of the system. If no sound is heard or if
the output is distorted, turn the system off immediately. Refer to the power connections section and the trouble
shooting section of this manual to solve your installation problems
Step 6 Check to make sure the output for each channel is correct. If the active crossovers are used, check to make sure that
each output is correct from the amplifier. When using active crossovers on midrange and tweeters, do not use
crossover frequencies lower than recommended. If the system is not configured properly, refer to the internal
crossover section of this manual and take corrective action.
Step 7 If the output is clear and undistorted, continue to the adjusting the sound of the system section of this manual.
ADJUSTING THE SOUND OF THE SYSTEM
Once you have checked the systems operation, adjust the sound of the system. Adjusting the sound of the system is accomplished by
setting the level controls and adjusting the internal crossovers.
Step 1 Turn the signal source volume control down all the way. Set any tone controls to their flat or defeated positions.
This includes the loudness control.
