INPUT menu setup is critical for achieving a proper signal match with your source while minimizing distortion. INPUT SELECT (mode 1-1) determines how many signal connections to the amplifier are made. If you are running one channel (one mono RCA connection), set the amplifier’s input mode to “1ch”, and plug the RCA into the left/white signal input. If you are running a stereo bass signal to the amplifier (both left and right channel RCA’s), set the amplifier’s input mode to “2ch”, and plug both RCA connectors into the appropriate jack. INPUT LEVEL (mode 1-2) allows the A/D converter’s input signal range to be optimized for the best possible signal clarity and output level. Setting this overly sensitive (severely clipping the input) can result in very high distortion with musical peaks, so use the clipping indicator as an additional guide in setting this level. If additional gain is still required, return to this adjustment again later after continuing through the remaining setup steps.

SETTING THE INPUT

Push "MODE" to access "1" (INPUT).

Push "ENT" enter "1". Push "ENT" to enter "1-1" (SELECT).

Toggle Manual backgroundManual backgroundManual background to select "1ch" or "2ch". Push "ENT".

STEP 2. (2) LPF (Low Pass filter)

Eliminating unwanted higher frequencies is essential for optimizing subwoofer performance and integration with the rest of the system. Selecting the appropriate cut off frequency of the low pass filter will depend upon the application, so a wide frequency range (30Hz- 200Hz) is provided to choose from. Please note however, that if the selected frequency is very close to or overlaps with the subsonic filter, it will result in little or no output. Also, if an external crossover is used, the internal filter can be turned off.
