6. RCA Pass-Thru Jacks The Pass-Thru provides a convenient source for
daisy-chaining an additional amplifier without running an extra set of
RCA cables from the front of the vehicle to the rear amplifier location.
7.
Gain Control The input gain control is preset to match the output of
most source units. It can be adjusted to match output levels from a
variety of source units.
8.
Remote Punch Bass - The Punch Bass control helps correct for acousti-
cal deficiencies in the listening environment by helping reproduce full
range sound without excessive boost. The Punch Bass control is a nar-
row band adjustment centered at 45Hz variable from 0db to + 18db.
Connection is made with a cable using RJ - 45 and can be installed
under the dash for remote access.
9.
Variable Crossover The amplifiers have a built-in 24dB/octave
Butterworth filter with a crossover point variable from 50Hz to 250Hz.
The crossover can be set to Low-Pass (LP).
10.
Power Indicator The red logo on top illuminates when the unit is
turned on.
11.
Protect LED - The (red) LED illuminates when the unit is latched into
protection. It requires momentary AP removal to enable output PWM.
12. bd Sync Cable - The amplifiers have a 6 pin mini DIN connector.
When operating two amplifiers in the bridge mode, the SYNC cable
must be used. This will allow the two independent frequency carrier
generators in each unit to be synchronized.
13.
Subsonic Filter - A high pass filter designed to prevent frequencies
below the audio range from being applied to the core of the amplifier.
Consequently, improving loud speaker performance and power han-
dling.
