to level 7.

function on for the channel you are adjusting.

GAIN CONTROL
to adjust an average output volume of +4 dB in the
LED
LEVEL INDICATOR (2).

Each of the three channels come with a BASS signal output
EQ. These controls are used to increase (up to +15dB) or decrease (down to -35dB) the LOW
range output signal. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease a value or clockwise to
increase a value.
