Input Option 3: Using Three Pairs of RCA Cables

If the source unit has a separate sub output or if using an external crossover use this configuration. With the
Parallel input selector in the “OFF” position and RCA’s plugged into the sub inputs, you have six inputs and six out-
puts, all separate.

Input Option 4: Using a Stereo Pair of High Level Inputs

With the Parallel input selector switch in “ON” position, and the Sub input switch in the “F+R” position, all six chan-
nels receive input from the front high level inputs. There is no fader capability.

Input Option 5: Using Two Stereo Pairs of High Level Inputs

With the Parallel input selector switch in the “OFF” position, and the Sub input switch in the “F+R” position, fader
capability is enabled and the sub channels get signal from both front and rear inputs.
