Basic application

Crossover frequency control checklist:

These sub bass amplifiers can be used in any of the bi-amplification systems described in 

LOW PASS: 80Hz (approximately 11 o’clock)

this manual, replacing the 2 channel amplifiers as per the illustrations.

SUBSONIC:35Hz (approximately 1 o’clock)
BASS EQ: 12 o’clock max

Interconnect cable checklist:

Connect the inputs to a suitable source, e.g. a head unit with good quality RCA cables. 
Connect the LINE OUT to the inputs of the system highs amplifier.

Level control checklist:

Refer to the section 

“Setting up systems after installation for best performance”

Use  at  least  #12  gauge  speaker  wiring.  The  amps  have  dual  speaker  terminals, 
simplifying the hookup of multiple speakers. 

These are 1 channel amplifiers

.

Minimum final loudspeaker impedance: 1-Ohm.

FULL RANGE

STEREO LINE INPUT

NOT USED

Y-ADAPTOR

Note: You can use the Radio/CD designated mono line output or a full range stereo line output.
For full range stereo line output, you will need an optional “Y-Adaptor” as shown.
