21When amp turns on, LED will display red during diagnostic mode, and then green, signaling amp is on and functioning. Amp will only turn on when radio is on.

22Adjust gain and crossover.

Setting Gain

Turn gain knob on Thunderform pre-amp to minimum, counter clock- wise. Play a favorite tape or compact disc that contains consistent music and bass. Turn the source unit to maximum listening level. You should know that some source units will produce distortion or “clip” before the unit reaches maximum volume. Reduce volume to the loudest listening level before distortion. Turn the gain knob on the Thunderform pre-amp clockwise until the speaker starts to distort and reduce gain to loudest listening level before distortion.

Optional- The EBC, or Electronic Bass Control, allows a remote bass control to be adjusted from the driver's seat.

Setting Crossover

You should set the crossover to your own personal listening taste. The crossover is adjustable to any frequency between 50Hz (counterclock- wise) to 150Hz (clockwise). As a guideline, the goal is to create the illu- sion of bass up front. The higher the crossover point the more “audibly visible” your sub is going to be. Take your time and really listen to your system, grab a soda and a few of your favorite tunes and have fun.
