Please note that this equalizer contains an internal ON/OFF switch, which is activated
when the head unit is turned on. For this reason, in order to use this equalizer, your
head unit must have a remote-turn on lead.
This graphic equalizer consists of
several audio filters, each centered
at a specific frequency in the audio
range.The EQ1208 enables you to
cut or boost the output level by up
to 18dB as desired at the following
frequencies:
40Hz • 150Hz • 1kHz • 20kHz
The EQ1208 also features a subwoof-
er channel with an independent
crossover control. The crossover can
be set from 30Hz to 250Hz. Any sig-
nal below the frequency setting will
be sent to the subwoofer outputs,
allowing you to optimize the sound
to suit your particular subwoofer set-
up. Use of the subwoofer channel is
optional.
