Adjusting the Input Level
The input level controls let you adjust
the crossover to balance the sub-
woofer’s sound level with the rest of
your autosound system.
Turn your autosound system up to a
normal listening level, then use a flat-
head screwdriver to adjust each
IN-
PUT LEVEL
control until the subwoof-
er is as loud as desired.
Caution:
If you use the
HIGH LEVEL
input terminals and turn your auto-
sound system volume too high for the
crossover, you could damage the
crossover. To reduce this possibility,
set the
INPUT LEVEL
controls past
their midpoints.
Adjusting the Subwoofer
Bass Boost
The
SUBWOOFER BASS BOOST
con-
trols let you boost 45, 80, or 120 Hz
subwoofer output by 12 dB to en-
hance low sounds when desired. Set
the
45Hz/80Hz/120Hz
selector to the
appropriate position, then set
+12dB
to
ON
. To return to the normal bass
setting, set
+12dB
to
OFF
.
