HIGH LEVEL INPUT
Connect a factory system’s headunit or amplifier outputs. Using the
HI level input the amplifier will automatically turn on and off using the
factory system’s audio signal as a trigger. The high level auto on switch
turns off the auto turn on function, but the high level input still works as
normal.
OUTPUT
Provides a full range signal for an additional amplifier. There is no signal
loss if using this output.
CROSSOVER FREQUENCY
Controls the crossover point for the speaker outputs.
BASS BOOST
Variable bass boost from 0 to +18dB @ 45 Hz.
2ch/4ch MODE
2ch: Headunit has one pair of cables into front Input.

LOW PASS LEVEL CONTROL (LPL)
This port is for connecting the optional remote level control (LPL44). This allows
up to 20dB of volume adjustment. This is not a bass boost, it controls the level of
the entire low pass signal of the rear channels.
