GX-A604: 4-Channel Operation

Input Mode switch: Set the Input Mode switch in the "4CH" position.

Front Crossover Filter switch: Set the Front Crossover Filter switch in the "ON" (high-pass) position. This will limit the amount of low-frequency

energy sent to the speakers, significantly reducing distortion and preventing the speakers from damage. Exception: If you have connected large full-range speakers (6" x 9" or larger) that can handle significant bass to the amplifier’s front channels and you are not using a subwoofer in the system, set the Front Crossover Filter switch to the "OFF" (full-range) position.

Rear Crossover Filter switch: Set the Rear Crossover Filter switch in the "HP" (high-pass) position. This will limit the amount of low-frequency

energy sent to the speakers, significantly reducing distortion and preventing the speakers from damage. Exception: If you have connected large full-range speakers (6" x 9" or larger) that can handle significant bass to the amplifier’s front channels and you are not using a subwoofer in the system, set the Rear Crossover Filter switch to the "FLAT" (full-range) position.

Rear Crossover control: When the Rear Crossover switch is set in

6" and 5" Speakers

4" and Smaller Speakers

the "HP" position, the Rear Crossover control determines the frequency

 

 

where the low frequencies sent to the speakers begin to be reduced in

 

 

volume.

 

 

When running the amplifier in the 4-channel mode you should set the

 

 

Rear Crossover control according to the size of the speakers connected

 

 

to the amplifier channels – the smaller the speakers the higher you

 

 

need to set the control to protect the speakers from damage. After

 

 

initially setting the crossover frequency, listen to music with strong bass

 

 

that you are familiar with. If the speakers sound distorted or distressed, move the crossover frequency control to a higher setting to eliminate the distortion/ distress. The illustration to the right shows the recommended crossover filter frequency ranges for different speaker sizes.

GX-A604: 3-Channel Operation

Input Mode switch: Set the Input Mode switch in the "4CH" position.

Front Crossover switch: Set the Front Crossover switch in the "ON" (high-pass) position. This will limit the amount of low-frequency energy sent to the speakers, significantly reducing distortion and preventing the speakers from damage.

Rear Crossover Filter switch: When connecting a subwoofer or woofer to the rear channels, set the Rear Crossover Filter switch in the "LP" (low-pass) position. This will limit the amount of high-frequency energy sent to the woofers or subwoofer, improving the clarity of vocals and other midrange sounds.
