The PHASE controller allows to adjust the phasing between 0° and 180°. Hence, you are able to adjust the subwoofer perfect
to the vehicle’s acustics.
The SUB SONIC controller (Subsonic filter) limits the ultralow and not hearable frequencies of the audiosignal to below, to avoid
a mechanical and electical overloading on the subwoofer. The cut-off frequency is adjustable from 15 to 55 Hz and depends on
the size of the subwoofer.
The MODE switch selects the required operation mode of the amplifier.
In the SLAVE-Mode the amplifier works as a SLAVE amp, this means only the audiosignal of the MASTER amp will be amplified.
All controllers on the SLAVE Amp are without function and will be assumed by the MASTER amp.
In the FULL-Mode a full range signal will be provided to the speakers. The controllers PHASE, LP, SUB SONIC and the BASS
LEVEL CONTROLLER are without function.
In the LP-Mode (Low Pass mode) you are able to limit the frequencies to above with the LP controller. All controllers are active.
The EXTENDED BASS CONTROL controllers allow a extensive adjustment of the bass frequencies.
The SUB BOOST controller defines the bass bosst from 0 to 18dB.
With the FREQ RANGE controller you are able to adjust, on which frequency the bass boost (SUB BOOST) is effictive.
The range goes from 20 to 80 Hz.
With the
Q-CONTROL controller defines the Q-Factor of the crossover continuously, so that the playback quality of the cut-off
frequency can be adjusted. Thereby you are able to adjust perfect transitions between the loudspeakers.
•
WIDE equates a Q-Factor of Q 0,3 (arrow left below) = very wide frequency range.
• NARROW equates a Q-Factor of Q 1,0 (arrow right below) = very narrow frequency range.
• Q 0,5 / LINKWITZ-REILLY is the standard-setting, this means the arrow points up (12 o’clock position).
• Q 0,7 / BUTTERWORTH is located at the arrow position right (3 o’clock position)
POWER/PROTECT
If the POWER LED lights up, the amplifier is ready for operation.
If the PROTECT LED lights up, a malfunction is indicated. Refer in this case to the chapter TROUBLE SHOOTING.
The BASS REMOTE CONTROLLER port is for the cable of the enclosed bass remote controller and only to use in the MASTER
mode. With this bass remote controller, you are able to adjust the bass level e.g. out of the driver’s seat. Please use only the
enclosed bass remote controller and cable.
