Two Channel Bridged Configuration

Front and rear channels are configured for bridged two-channel operation.

Lowest recommended impedance for both front and rear channels is 4

W.

Crossover and gain configurations are independently adjustable between the
front and rear channels.

Two-channel operation is recommended for this operational mode.

Front and rear outputs can be configured for high-pass, low-pass, or full range
operation.

Front and rear outputs can be configured for stereo (right channels will have right
output, left channels will have left output) or summed two-channel operation
(front speaker bridged, rear speaker bridged).

Only the rear speaker is controlled when using the RGC-1.

Three Channel Stereo/Bridged Configuration

Front channels are configured for two-channel stereo operation.

Front channel lowest recommended impedance is 2

W

stereo.

Rear channels are configured for a single channel bridged output.

Rear channel lowest recommended impedance is 4

W.

Crossover mode, output and gain configurations are independently adjustable
between the front and rear channels.
