XN3210/XN3410
Manual Owner’s English
DESCRIPTION
The XN3210 and XN3410 use an unregulated MOSFET power supply for superior sound and output wattage. In addition, a toroid-coil is used to transfer power with minimal performance loss due to heat. To avoid unwanted noise, a doublesided conformal printed circuit board with strategically placed components keeps AM RFI subdued.
All of the connections and controls for the XN3210 and XN3410 are conveniently located at the ends of the amplifier and labeled appropriately. To ensure the best possible electrical connections, the power, speaker, and RCA inputs are goldplated. An additional benefit of the XN3410 is the ability to create a 2, 3, or 4 channel amplified system with a flip of a switch (see Application section). In the event of component failure or a short circuit, the XN3210 and XN3410 incorporate safe guards and outboard ATC fuses to prevent damage to the amplifier.
INPUT CONNECTIONS AND AUDIO CONTROLS
The front panel of the XN3410 and XN3210 contain both connections for RCA and speaker level inputs, along with the audio controls as shown below.

The RCA connections are gold plated for optimum performance and low signal loss. The RCA connectors are labeled CH1 (front left), CH2 (front right) [for XN3410: CH3 (rear left), and CH4 (rear right)]. In applications where RCA signals are not present, the speaker level output from the head unit can be used. (Use one or the other input, not both.)
•Gain Controls: For the XN3410, separate CH1/2 and CH3/4 gain controls
allow you to set the nominal operating level of the amplifier. The amplifier's input range, 200mV to 6.0V for RCA inputs and 500mV to 13V for speaker level inputs, can accommodate input levels from virtually any head unit.
•Bass Boost: The amplifier features a "high-Q" (i.e. narrow frequency band)
Bass Boost circuit. It acts much like an equalizer with an adjustable gain from 0 to +15dB fixed at 45Hz. Use this feature to tune low-frequency audio response to compensate for a less than ideal subwoofer enclosure design. The added boost produces rich, full bass tones that are normally difficult to reproduce in the marine audio environment.
NOTE: Bass Boost setting should only be used for subwoofer applications.
•Source Select (XN3410 only)
2CH BASS: Uses CH1/2 inputs and has output from all 4 channels with Bass Boost.
2CH: Uses CH1/2 inputs and has output from all 4 channels. The Bass Boost will work only on CH1/2 and have no effect on CH3/4.
4CH: Uses all 4 channel inputs and has output from all 4 channels. The Bass Boost will work only on CH1/2 and have no effect on CH3/4.

•Output Mode Selector Switch: CH 1/2 and CH 3/4 (XN3410 only)
STEREO: Full left and right stereo operation.
CH1Mono / CH2 Mono: Single channel input for bridged operation. This is especially useful in high-powered systems. (Uses CH2 and CH4 inputs.)
CH1/2 Mono / CH3/4 Mono: Allows for a stereo input to be summed into a mono output.
•CH1/2 FREQ / CH3/4 FREQ (XN3410 only) The CH1/2 crossover frequencies are adjustable from 55Hz to 550Hz. While CH3/4 crossover frequencies are adjustable from 55Hz to 5500Hz (via the Frequency Range Multiplier) for a wider range of crossover points. Use this feature along with your speaker manufacturer's recommended crossover frequencies to quickly design a more advanced system.
NOTE: If either of the Crossover Mode Switches is set to OFF, varying the frequency control will have no effect.
•CH1/2 Filter / CH3/4 Filter (XN3410 only) A filter is activated by sliding the
CH1/2 and CH3/4 filter switch to either HP = High Pass or LP = Low Pass. CH1/2 is fully adjustable from 55-550Hz (via CH1/2 Freq) and CH3/4 is fully adjustable from 55-5500Hz (via CH3/4 Frequency and Frequency Range Multiplier). Use this feature along with your speaker manufacture's recommended crossover frequencies to design a more advanced system.
