this feature, along with your speaker manufacturer’s recommended crossover frequencies, to quickly design a more advanced system

•X-Over Slope Switch - This switch will change the X-Over between a 12db and 24dB per octave slope. The steep crossover slope keeps midrange tones out of the subwoofer and thereby eliminates an unnatural “nasal” tone quality in the audio system.

•Output Mode Switch - This switch is to change the output between lowpass and fullrange. If lowpass is selected, the lowpass filter controls will control the crossover frequency.

•Input Mode Switch - This switch allows you to set the input mode. Stereo input allows full left and right stereo operation. Right (bridged) input allows single channel input for bridged operation. This is especially useful in high- powered systems when using one amplifier for each subwoofer/speaker. L + R (sum mono) allows a stereo input to be summed into a mono output.

•Speaker Level Inputs - These provide connections for a high-level stereo source. In addition, these connections are provided for installations where the source unit’s RCA outputs are unavailable.

WARNING:When using the speaker (high-level) inputs, the Black wire must be grounded at the Radio. Failure to do this will result in noise and improper operation.
