Synced Amplifier
After connecting the speaker wires, adjust each
synced amplifiers gain control. All synced ampli-
fiers follow the master amplifiers settings.
Quick Setup of the Gain
Set each synced amplifiers gain control to the
NORMAL position. This setting will balance output
volumes sufficiently for most applications.
Advanced Setup of the Gain
Starting with the master amplifier, adjust the gain
control on each amplifier in order.
1. Output sin wave through this system at low out-
put level.
2. Use volt meter to measure the master amplifiers
output voltage level.
3. Use volt meter to measure the synced amplifiers
output voltage level.
4. Match the synced amplifiers output to the mas-
ters output using the gain control on the synced
amplifier.
5. Repeat for the each synced amplifier in the proper
order.
