Features

Six-Channel System Amplifier: The JL Audio G6600 is a class AB system amplifier that is rated at 75 Watts RMS x 6-channel in 4 ohm at 20 to 20,000Hz with a signal-to-noise-ratio of  104 dB and a total harmonic distortion of 1% while receiving 14.4 Volts or 55 Watts RMS x 2-channel in 4 ohm with a total harmonic distortion of 1% while receiving 12.5 Volts. The amplifier can be bridged to output 200 Watts RMS x 3-channel in 4-ohm at 14.4 Volts or  150 Watts RMS x 3-channel in 4-ohm at 12.5 Volts. The main purpose of a 6-channel system amplifier is to give you the ability and convenience to power two pair of full-range speakers and a pair of subwoofers simultaneously with one amplifier.

Absolute Symmetry A/B Circuitry: The JL Audio full-range amplifier benefits from a patented technology called Absolute Symmetry to deliver amazing fidelity with extremely low distortion over a wide range of load impedances. The JL Audio amplifier features a revolutionary Class A/B circuit that employs identical N-Channel MOSFET transistors for push and pull with true buffering from the load impedance. This is accomplished via a patented circuit that reverses the operation of one of the transistors in each pair to achieve absolute power symmetry and extremely low distortion over a wide range of load impedances.

Differential-Balance Inputs: The JL Audio amplifier features differential-balanced input architecture to effectively control noise and ensure compatibility with a wide variety of source units, including many OEM systems. Without resorting to line output converters, you can directly connect most OEM source units to the JL Audio amplifier without creating any noise or compatibility issues. Unlike conventional single-ended inputs, the differential-balanced design does not connect one side of the audio signal to chassis ground.  This eliminates any voltage sensitivity between one input terminal and ground and greatly reduces the incidence of alternator whine in a typical car audio installation. The G6600 amplifier provides range switching on each of its inputs via the "Input Voltage" switch. This permits connection to a wide range of source voltages while retaining excellent sensitivity setting precision.

Advanced Rollback Protection: Should an G-Series amplifier ever overheat, its
intelligent, unregulated power supply reacts by limiting available peak voltage until the amplifier returns to a safe temperature range. Likewise, if an impedance lower than optimal for the amplifier is present at the outputs, the G-Series amplifier will roll back peak voltage to protect itself without shutting down.

Protection Circuitry With Status Indicator Lights: There are two status indicator lights on the right side of the amplifier.

• Power (Green): This LED lights green to indicate that the amplifier is turned on and operating normally.
• Protect (Red): The Protection LED lights Red to indicate the amplifier's protection circuitry has been activated to prevent product failure due to a short-circuit or a dangerously low impedance connected to the amplifier's outputs.

Controls

Input Mode: The G6600's input section allows you to send signal to the amplifier section through the use of two, four or six differential-balanced inputs. Input connections on the amplifier are via three pairs of traditional RCA-type jacks. You can send six discrete channels of audio signal into the amplifier by connecting all six inputs to the six preamp outputs on back of your headunit via three sets of stereo RCA cables. You can also connect the amplifier using only channels 1, 2, 3 & 4 and the amplifier will sum those channels to create an audio signal for channels 5 & 6. If you use only two channels of input to deliver signal to all six amplifier channels, it will be necessary to split the two signals with an RCA Y-adapter to connect to channels 1, 2, 3 & 4 so those inputs can sum the input of channels 5 & 6.

Simplified Gain Setting:  The G-Series amplifier makes setting the gain level of the amp via the input sensitivity control very simple. All you need is Digital AC Voltmeter (142TK12V, sold separately) and a Test CD Disc (503CD104, sold separately) with a sine-wave test-tone recorded at 0 dB reference level in the frequency range to be amplified for that set of channels (50 Hz for subwoofer channels, 1 kHz for a midrange application).

Active Crossover: The G-Series amplifier provides a crossover network to fine tune your system effectively and accurately. The G6600 offers the following independent crossover adjustments for the 1 & 2, 3 & 4, and 5 & 6 channels.

• Filter Mode: The amplifier allows you to select either a Low Pass, High Pass or Full-Range operation of the amplifier's 1 & 2 channels, 3 & 4 channels, and 5 & 6 channels.
• Variable Frequency: You can set the amplifier's Low Pass or High Pass crossover from 50 to 200 Hz for channels 1 & 2 and channels 3 & 4.

Bass Controls: The bass boost circuit of the G-Series amplifier offers the following controls that only effect channels 5 & 6 of the amplifier.

• Bass Boost: The amplifier is equipped with a fixed +6dB, 48 Hz Bass Boost.
• Remote Bass Port: The amplifier is equipped with a connection for a wired Remote Bass Control (136RBC1, sold separately) that allows fully variable boost control (0-12dB) from the front of your vehicle.

Connections

Left Side Of Amplifier:

• Power and Ground: The JL Audio amplifier's set-screw Power and Ground connections are designed to accept 8 to 4 AWG power wire.
• Remote Turn-On: The G-Series amplifier's set-screw turn-on lead will accept 18 to 12 AWG  wire.
