Rear Panel

Rear Panel Features

1.  Light Bar Brilliance setting – toggle 

this button to set the desired lumines-
cence of that nebulistic front panel 
light bar to bright, dim, or off. 

2.  Inputs – The Avalon G4 features both 

Balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA 
inputs  to connect to your preamplifier 
outputs. Any standard line level audio 
signal can be connected here. The 
STATUS LED will light blue when the 
channel is operating normally.

3.  RCA Thru* – These RCA jacks are 

for looping your audio input signal 
to another pair of inputs on another 
device or section of the Avalon G4. 
These line-level outputs are a hard-
wired copy of whatever is coming in 
on the inputs. *While “Through” here 
is spelled like it sounds, there wasn’t 
enough room on the richly dense rear 
panel. We sacrificed some grammati-
cal correctness to fit more on the rear 
panel– we felt it was a decent trade 
off.  

4.  Level – This control provides for Gain 

adjustment on the input signal. Use 
this to calibrate optimal signal level 
to drive the Avalon G4 to full output. 
These adjustments are applied per 

channel input, so for stereo signals, 
best practice is to match the SPL 
from the one output to the rest of the 
channels on the Avalon G4. We have 
detents there to make this easy. If 
those don’t work for you can use an 
measurement tool like our DM-RTA or 
the SA-4100i to test and calibrate your 
level settings for each output.

5.  Stereo/Mono – These switches allow 

the channel pair to be used in stereo, 
or combined in mono. In mono, 
channel 1 or 2 inputs are summed, so 
just use one input. The same applies to 
channels 3 and 4 in mono, just use one.

6.  LP/OFF/HP – This switch gives you 

the option of setting a High-Pass, or 
Low-Pass crossover. The OFF setting 
bypasses the crossover section. High 
Pass means that the frequencies 
above the crossover FREQ setting will 
pass through, while lower frequen-
cies are attenuated. Low Pass allows 
the frequencies below this crossover 
frequency to pass through to your 
subwoofer for example.

7.  FREQ (Hz) – this sets the frequency 

of either a high-pass or low-pass 
crossover frequency if LP or HP is set 
by the LP/OFF/HP switch (6).
