Input sensitivity level setting

Following the directions below will allow the 

installer to adjust the input sensitivity of each 
amplifier channel pair simply and easily in just a 
few minutes using equipment which is commonly 
available in installation bays.

necessary equipment

• Digital AC Voltmeter
•  CD with a sine-wave test tone recorded at  

0 dB reference level in the frequency range  
to be amplified for that set of channels  
(50 Hz for subwoofer channels, 1 kHz for a 
midrange application). Do not use attenuated 
test tones (-10 dB, -20 dB, etc.).

the nine-step procedure

 

1)  Disconnect the speakers from the  

amplifier’s speaker output connectors (you need 
only disconnect one wire on each output).

2)  Turn off all processing (bass/treble, loudness,  

EQ, etc.) on the source unit, processors (if used) 
and amplifier. Set the source unit's fader control 
to center position and its subwoofer level control 
to 3/4 of maximum. 

3)  Turn the “Input Sens.” control all the  

way down.

4)  Set the source unit volume to 3/4 of full 

volume. This will allow for reasonable gain 
overlap with moderate clipping at full volume.

5)  Using the chart on this page, determine the target 

voltage for input sensitivity adjustment according 
to the nominal impedance of the speaker system 
connected to the amplifier outputs.

6)  Verify that you have disconnected 

the speakers before proceeding. Play 
a track with an appropriate sine wave 
(within the frequency range to be 
amplified) at 3/4 source unit volume.

7)  Connect the AC voltmeter to the speaker output 

connectors of the amplifier. Make sure you test 
the voltage at the correct connectors (+ and –).

8)  Increase the “Input Sens.” control until the 

target voltage is observed with the voltmeter.

9)  Once you have adjusted the amplifier to 

its maximum low-distortion output level, 
reconnect the speaker(s) and listen to the 
system. The “Input Sens.” controls can 
now be adjusted downward if the amplifier 
requires attenuation to achieve the desired 
system balance. 

IMPORTANT

!

Do not increase any Input Sens. setting for 

any amplifier channel or channel pair in the 

system beyond the maximum level established 

during this procedure. Doing so will result in 

audible distortion and possible speaker damage.

It will be necessary to re-adjust the  

“Input Sens.” for the affected channels if any 
equalizer boost is activated after setting the  

“Input Sens.” with this procedure. This applies  
to any EQ boost circuit, including source unit 
tone controls or EQ circuits. EQ cuts will not 
require re-adjustment. 

 

Due to ongoing product development, all specifications are subject to 
change without notice.
