SWITCHABLE HIGH PASS CROSSOVER

(Speaker Level)–If you want to filter bass out of any speaker, connect the Speaker Level In and Out, and select either 40Hz or 80Hz. Use 40Hz for larg- er speakers, 80Hz for smaller speakers. This feature is useful if you have a stereo or Pro Logic system that has no bass management/speaker setup system and you want to filter bass out of your main speakers. If you do not want to fil- ter out any bass, select Full Range.

(See Fig. 4, previous page)

FRONT LINE IN–Any set of preamp out- puts may be connected here, but usually Front channel outputs. The signal will pass through the Variable Low Pass Crossover. If you do not have a spare set of pre-outs use a Y connector.
