1. Inputs:
The inputs of the MEMBX use a balanced input circuit to minimize induced noise. They are also designed
to handle very high signal voltages up to 15V
2. Outputs:
These RCA connectors should be connected to the next component after the MEMBX such as a
crossover, equalizer or amplifier. Remember, the MEMBX should go inline before a crossover
3. Remote Control
3A. PMF Subsonic Filter Control:
Control the PMF subsonic filter to eliminate unwanted noise. This
control allows you to set frequencies from 35Hz-80Hz. A setting of approximately 33Hz is typically used on most
systems. If you want to protect your system more you can adjust the frequency higher.
3B. Bass Level Control:
Adjust the level of the bass produced by your system.
4. Power Connector:
Be sure to secure your connections to prevent shorts and damage to your MEMBX unit.
5. Para-Bass Connector:
These knobs control the para-bass functions of the MEMBX. The SWEEP knob allows you
to pick the center frequency that you want the MEMBX to maximize. The WIDE knob adjusts how wide of a
frequency range the MEMBX will impact.
6. Bass Maximizer Indicator:
These LED indicators flash when the bass maximization circuit is activated
7. Power ON LED:
Notifies that power to the unit is present.
8. Input Grounding:
For most systems you can leave this jumper set in the BALANCED position. In some
systems, the source unit may look for a ground through the RCA connectors. If this is the case, you should
changed the jumpers to the UNBALANCED position.
9. Ground Isolation Jumpers:
Occasionally alternator whine may appear in a system due to improper
grounding. To help resolve this situation the MEMBX provides alternative grounding connections. Make sure
your system is OFF before moving these jumpers.
10.Bass Output Control Jumpers:
Not all systems are designed the same. Some systems are designed for
massive SPL performance, others are more refined. The Bass Maximizer can either increase or decrease the
signal voltage of the Bass Restoration Circuit. Depending on your system, you may change these jumpers to a
higher or lower setting to maximize your bass output and protect your speakers. In most systems the factory
settings are appropriate but feel free to adjust them to your preferred setting.
