REMOTE BASS CONTROL INSTALLATION
1. mount the
metal bracket
back view
2. slide the housing until it snaps
into the metal bracket
Phase Switch:
The phase switch lets you invert the phase of the signal played through your powered
subwoofer. This is useful if the speakers in your system are out of phase with the subwoofer. Toggle this switch
to fi nd the position that gives you the best bass response.
Input Level:
The inputs on KICKER powered enclosures are capable of receiving either Hi (speaker-level) or
Low-level (RCA) signals from your source unit. Set the Input Level switch on the side panel to match the outputs
of your source unit.
Crossover Control:
The variable crossover on the side panel allows you to adjust the crossover frequency from
50–120Hz. The setting for this control is subjective; 80Hz is a good place to start.
Input Gain Control:
The input gain control is not a volume control. It matches the output of the source unit to
the input level of the powered enclosure’s amplifi er. Turn the source unit up to about 3/4 volume (if the source
unit goes to 30, turn it to 25). Next, slowly turn the gain on the powered enclosure up (clockwise) until you can
hear audible distortion, then turn it down a little.
Bass Boost Control:
The variable bass boost control on the side panel is designed to give you increased
output (0–6dB) at 40 Hz. The setting for this control is subjective. If you turn it up, you must readjust the input
gain control to avoid clipping the powered enclosure’s amplifi er.
Remote Bass Control:
With the included remote bass control, you have the ability to control the output level
of your powered enclosure remotely. When plugged into the enclosure, the remote bass control bypasses and
takes the place of the gain control on the side panel. To mount the remote bass level control, simply screw the
metal bracket to the chosen location, then slide the housing onto the bracket until it snaps into place. Run the
cable from the controller to the “Remote Bass” jack on your powered enclosure’s side panel.
DO NOT disconnect the remote bass control when the amplifi er is on!
