SYSTEM TUNING (CROSSOVER ADJUSTMENT)

Note: If you are using the Remote Gain, make sure to take this into account during set-up procedures of the subwoofer amplifier. You should set the system up with the Remote Gain plugged in and with the level knob turned all the way down (counter-clockwise). The Remote Gain only works when you’ve selected the LPF (low-pass) crossover configuration.

Crossover Section

The amplifier has built-in high-pass/low-pass filters that can be bypassed by sliding the switch to the (FR) position.

1.When the high-pass is selected (HP), the amplifier will be devoted to mid/tweeters.

2.When the low-pass is selected (LP), the amplifier will be used to drive woofers/sub woofers. With this setting, the Remote Gain can directly control the amplifier playback level.

3.When the full range is selected (FR), the amplifier is used as a full range amplifier.

Crossover Frequency Selection (FREQ)

Both the high-pass and the low-pass section offer continuously adjustable crossover frequencies between 40 and 350 Hz. Adjust the setting according to your speaker c omponent specification or to your particular preference.

Bass Boost Control (BASS BOOST)

Select a boost level between 0dB and +18dB @ 40Hz to enhance the bass performance for your sound system. BASS BOOST is NOT free! Every 3dB of boost costs you twice as much in power. Make sure to set the final gains after setting the Bass Boost to work best with your subwoofer/enclosure combination. More is NOT always better!
