Mixed Mono Capable so you can simultaneously drive a stereo and mono  
load (satellites and subwoofer).  
2 Ohm Drive Ability The Granite amplifiers are designed to drive loads  
down to 2 Ohms stereo and 4 Ohms bridged.  
Built-in Staggered Asymmetrical Crossover  
Built in 2-way electronic  
crossover is designed to send either high or low pass information to the  
110.2. Outputs are included to drive another amplifier with either high or low  
pass information.

Drive Delay Muted Turn-on/off Circuit A unique circuit which completely  
eliminates any amplifier-related turn-on/off noises.  
Flexible Input Sensitivity accepts input voltages from 100  
to 2.5 V.  
which permits maximum output from amplifier with virtually any source unit.  
“Balancing Act” Input Topology for added immunity to ground loops caused  
by component and vehicle electrical system interaction.

WIRING  
You will need the following tools for the wiring of the amplifier:  
.
.
l
Phillips or slotted screw driver  
wire strippers  
wire crimpers  
When baring the wires for connection to the amplifier, remove  
of the insulation. For the speaker leads, use the supplied  
insulated female crimp connectors and slide the connector onto the  
terminal on the amplifier. One the power, ground, and remote  
to  
connections, loosen the screws on the terminal block, slide the bared  
wire into the connector, and tighten the screw. Determine form the  
chart below the minimum gauge power and ground wire required.  
sure to fuse the amplifier positive power lead within  
of the battery.  
up to 20’  
gauge or larger  
up to 10’  
12 gauge or larger  
A. Carefully run the audio and remote turn-on cables to the  
amplifier.  
B. Connect the speakers as shown in “Speaker Wiring  
Configurations.” Use at 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 amplifier. 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. If the circuit breaker cannot be shut  
off manually, do not make the final power connection to it. See below  
for recommended fuse ratings to be used.

30 amp  
D. Run a ground cable for the amplifier and securely connect it to a  
solid chassis ground on the vehicle. The ground cable should be the  
same gauge as the power cable.  
E. Double check each and every connection!  
 
TROUBLESHOOTING  
PROBLEM  
CAUSE  
No sound and  
are not lit  
no power or ground at amp  
no remote turn-on signal  
blown fuse near battery  
blown power supply fuse  
(accessible through access  
cover on bottom of amp)  
speaker or leads may be shorted  
verify adequate cooling of the  
amplifier  
Repeatedly blown amp fuse or  
frequent activation of thermal  
shut-off  
speaker load may be less than 2  
Ohms  
 
F. Re-connect the fuse or circuit breaker. Power up the system  
and the red LED should be lit. There may be a 2 -3 second delay from  
the time that the source unit is turned onto the time that the LED on the  
amp lights. This is normal. Once the amplifier power LED is on and  
the source unit is playing, you should have sound coming from the  
speakers.  
Wiring Tips  
.
Use grommets when running cables through any metal or sharp  
plastic to prevent accidental shorting or shearing.  
.
Be certain that the cables don’t interfere with normal operation of  
the vehicle’s high current circuits and vehicle management  
systems (engine computers, relays, etc.).  
LEVEL SETTING  
The input levels are adjusted by means of a stereo level control  
located next to the input connectors. When the amplifier is operated in  
the mono/bridged mode, only the right channel input is active.  
A. Turn the input level control on the amp to a minimum position (fully  
counter-clockwise).  
B. Set source unit volume to approximately 314 of full volume.  
C. While playing dynamic source material, slowly increase the  
amplifier’s input level until a near maximum undistorted level is heard in  
the system.  
D. If you are using the amplifier to drive subwoofers, you may want to  
use the bass boost circuit. First, engage the switch on the bottom of  
the amplifier, secondly, slowly adjust the level on the front panel to  
your preference.  
PROTECTION CIRCUITS  
Your Granite amplifier is protected against both overheating and short  
circuits by means of the following circuits:  
A main power supply fuse  
A fail-safe thermal protection circuit activating at  
Over-current Channel Circuit Breakers  
Short-circuit shutdown  
 
AMPLIFIER LOCATION AND MOUNTING  
The Soundstream Granite 110.2 amplifier employs highly efficient  
circuitry and a unique Chassisink design to maintain lower operating  
temperatures.  
mounting the amplifier, it should be securely  
fastened to the vehicle, away from moisture, stray or moving objects,  
and major electrical components (electrical motors, fuel pumps, etc.).  
To provide adequate ventilation, mount the amplifier so that there are  
at least two inches of freely-circulating air above and to the sides of it.  
Before mounting the amplifier, make certain the amplifier is configured  
correctly for your system.  
BRIDGING/MONO  
If used in dedicated mono, set the switch to the mono setting and  
follow the wiring diagram below.  
If used in Mixed Mono, set the switch to the stereo position and follow  
the wiring diagram below.

BASS EQUALIZATION  
If the Granite 110.2 is being used to drive a subwoofer, you may want  
to activate the subwoofer equalization circuit by throwing the switch to  
the “XXX” position. Activating the circuit also engages a subsonic filter  
at 45 Hz. The subsonic filter is designed to remove the very low  
frequency bass information that may damage subwoofers.  
CROSSOVER SETTINGS  
The Granite 110.2 can be configured to operate full range (for a set of  
satellite speakers or coaxials), low pass (for subwoofers), or high pass  
(for satellites or coaxials while another amp driving the subwoofers).  
XXX DIAGRAMS XXX  
A. Using the amplifier as a template, mark the mounting  
surface.  
B. Remove the amplifier and drill the holes.  
C. Mount the amplifier to the surface using the provided  
hardware.  
 
PASSIVE AND ELECTRONIC CROSSOVERS  
Your Granite amplifier is capable of driving a complete subwoofer and  
satellite system in the Mixed Mono configuration. However, for the  
lowest distortion and the maximum output and sound quality, we  
recommend you use electronic crossovers and multiple channels of  
amplification. The Granite 110.2 amplifier incorporates an electronic  
crossover with outputs. This amplifier, in conjunction with another  
amplifier, will competently drive an entire bi-amplified system.  
If you plan to use the Granite 110.2 in the Mixed Mono configuration, it  
is important to use the appropriate passive crossovers. Below are  
charts for 6 and 12  
crossovers.
