2 way active, or
Here we present a variation of the previous system. Since this is a 2 way system, we can use the front outputs from a head unit to drive the highs, and the rear output to drive the bass This method allows the listener to easily adjust the relative levels of bass to highs, with the front to rear fade on the head unit.
Channels 1 and 2 will be used for highs, and channels 3 and 4 for mono bass.
Interconnect cable checklist:
-Use good quality RCA leads to connect the inputs of the amplifier to the source as shown.
-Follow the instructions as per the previous system for switch and crossover settings.
