11.REAR CHANNEL INPUT SENSITIVITY LEVEL CONTROL (SENS)

The input sensitivity level can be varied from 5.0 volts to 100 mV depending on the output voltage of the source unit (refer to sub-section titled INPUT SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT).

12.REAR CHANNEL HIGH IMPEDANCE INPUT

To be connected to RCA pre-amp outputs from a source unit (i.e., radio, tape deck or CD player). If there is only one input available, connect it to the front input so that signals can automatically be directed to the rear channels.

13.REMOTE SUBWOOFER GAIN INPUT (not available on 321QE)

To be connected to the optional R S remote subwoofer volume control.

OUTPUT PANEL

1.

FRONT CHANNEL FILTER MODE SELECT SWITCH (MODE)

 

"HPF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a mid/tweeter amplifier.

 

"OFF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a full-range amplifier.

 

"LPF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a subwoofer amplifier.

2.

FRONT CHANNEL HIGH-PASS/LOW-PASS FREQUENCY SELECTOR KNOB (FREQ)

 

Select a high/low-pass crossover frequency between 30Hz to 300Hz.

3.

FRONT CHANNEL BASS BOOST CONTROL (BOOST)

 

Select a boost level between 0dB and +18dB to enhance the bass performance of your sound

FRONT CHANNEL INPUT SENSITIVITY LEVEL CONTROL (SENS)

 

The input sensitivity level can be varied from 5.0 volts to 100 mV depending on the output volt-

 

age of the source unit (refer to sub-section titled INPUT SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT).

5.

FRONT CHANNEL HIGH IMPEDANCE INPUT

 

To be connected to RCA pre-amp outputs from a source unit (i.e., radio, tape deck or CD player).

6.

FRONT/REAR CHANNEL LOW IMPEDANCE INPUT

 

To be connected to speaker outputs from a source unit when pre-amp outputs are not available.

7.

LINE LEVEL OUTPUT

 

This output can be used to connect to another amplifier for system expansion.

 

Note: This line level output is full range.

8.

REAR CHANNEL FILTER MODE SELECT SWITCH (MODE)

 

"HPF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a mid/tweeter amplifier.

 

"OFF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a full-range amplifier.

 

"LPF": Slide switch to this position if the amplifier is used as a subwoofer amplifier.

9.

REAR CHANNEL HIGH-PASS/LOW-PASS FREQUENCY SELECTOR KNOB (FREQ)

Figure 2: Output Panel Terminals and Indicators

14.POWER AND PROTECT INDICATOR (PWR/PRT)

Green light indicates that the amplifier is "ON." Red light indicates either a high current, short circuit or DC offset is detected at the speaker outputs. The amplifier will revert to normal operation once the problem is rectified. The red indicator also lights up at a high operating temperature. Under this condition, the amplifier will automatically shut down. As soon as the temperature falls to a safe level, the amplifier will automatically resume operation.

15.POWER INPUT TERMINAL (B+)

To be connected to the positive terminal of the vehicle’s battery or other constant +12 V source.

16.GROUND INPUT TERMINAL (GND)

To be wired to the vehicle’s chassis for ground.

17.REMOTE TURN-ON INPUT TERMINAL (REM)

To be connected to the remote control wire or power antenna lead of the source unit for remote ON/OFF.

18.FUSE RECEPTACLE

19.FRONT CHANNEL LEFT/RIGHT SPEAKER OUTPUT TERMINAL For connection to the front speaker system.

20.REAR CHANNEL LEFT/RIGHT SPEAKER OUTPUT TERMINAL For connection to the rear speaker system.
