1. Power Switch - Use this switch to power the MXS amplifier on or off
2. Channel Level Controls - Two detent controls to precisely adjust and the match the
output level of each channel
3. MODE Indicators - The corresponding indicator lights based off of the setting of the
rear panel MODE switch (Stereo, Bridge, Parallel).
4. FILTER Indicators - These LED indicators light depending on the setting of the rear
panel FILTER switch (Full, 28Hz, 120Hz).
5. Audio Indicators - The front panel LED indicators monitor the power output level for
the corresponding channel:
PEAK: The PEAK indicator lights whenever the channel is outputting signal
at full strength. For the best signal-to-noise ratio, the right (PEAK)
segment should light occasionally during peak levels; if it lights
frequently, you may be overloading the amplifier and a distorted
(“clipped”) signal is probably being output. If this occurs and backing
off the Input Level control delivers too low an output level for your
application.
-10: Lights whenever the output level reaches -10dB below the distortion or
clipping
SIGNAL: These LED indicators continuously monitor the input level for the
corresponding channel. The SIGNAL LED lights whenever signal is
present.
