NOTE:Connecting the optional remote overrides the Punch EQ control on the amplifier.

CAUTION:Overexcursion and subsequent damage may occur at high levels of boost.

PUNCH EQ

This works along with the crossover switch on the amplifier. When set to Low-Pass (LP) operation,this is a variable Bass Boost.

When set to High-Pass (HP) operation,this is a variable Mid-Bass andTreble Boost. When set to All Pass (AP) operation,both the Bass andTreble frequencies are boosted. Set this to your personal preference while listening to the system.

NOTE:Connecting the optional remote overrides the Punch EQ control on the amplifier.

ADJUSTING CROSSOVER FREQUENCY

Placing the crossover switch in the HP position sets the amplifier to the High Pass mode, enabling frequencies above the cut-off point to pass, adjustable between 50-500Hz.

Placing the crossover switch in the AP position sets the amplifier to the All Pass mode, preventing any crossover adjustment, allowing all frequencies to pass.

Placing the crossover switch in the LP position sets the amplifier to the Low Pass mode, enabling frequencies below the cut-off point to pass, adjustable between 50-500Hz.

Turn the crossover adjustment knob all the way down.With the system playing, turn the crossover adjustment knob up slowly until the desired crossover point is achieved.
