Power  -  Default  Auto.   

Upon  sensing  input  signal,  amplifier  powers  ON  (blue  LED)  automatically  within  a  few  seconds.   

Amplifier powers OFF (red LED) to low power consumption Standby mode approximately 15 minutes after last sensed signal.  

ON and OFF settings power the amplifier manually.

Crossover - Default LFE.  

If sub crossover is set up in Receiver or Pre-Pro, set RackAmp 300 Crossover to default LFE (no 

Lowpass  Filter).  If  your  electronic  components  have  no  sub  crossover,  e.g.  most  2  channel  systems,  set  RackAmp  300 

Crossover to the -6dB bass frequency specified for main speakers.

Volume - Default 0.  

Set appropriate level for calibrating your AVR or Pre-Pro.  For 2 channel systems, set volume level so 

subwoofer output matches and blends with your main speakers and amplifier.

Phase - Default 0.  

Select anywhere from 0 degrees in-Phase to 180 degrees inverted Phase.
