AudioControl®
QUICK INSTALLATION
INFORMATION -
For those of you short on time, but high on ambi- tion, we offer the following section to speed up your installation of the DQX:
1.The DQX needs to be installed in the signal path between your source unit and your external amplifier(s). If this is not obvious to you, quickly pack up your DQX and run to your nearest autho- rized AudioControl dealer to have them perform the installation. You will thank us later.
2.Physically mount the DQX in a location that keeps it away from soda spills, food crumbs, and curious fingers. However you will want to select a location that allows you to see the display and access the equalization/crossover controls during setup.
3.Hook up +12 volt power, ground, and remote
4.Adjust the “Input Level” control on your DQX to match the source unit’s output and then adjust the “Output Level” controls to match with your amplifier inputs.
Note: You will want to turn the gains on your amplifiers DOWN to maximize your systems performance.
5.Select the desired crossover points for the “Mid/Hi”, “Lo/Mid”, and “PFM”.
6.Now comes the fun part. Set your equalization controls to where your system sounds the most balanced yet dynamic. More about this in the section titled “Adjusting Your Equalizer”… and you thought you would not have to read the rest of the manual. Hah!
7.Last but not least, you will want to save your system settings in one of the eight memory locations.
