sound system. Adjust the center frequency to match this point. For most systems, the best center frequency 

adjustment will be between 40-50Hz. Use 45Hz (12 o’clock setting) as a starting point and adjust up or down 

gradually. 

 

• Setting the Boost/Cut: Once you have determined the loudest musical spot or range within the bass range of 

your sound system, start cutting until the response is smooth and even. You can also boost low spots within 

the musical range, but don’t go crazy with the boost knob. There is a lot of boost available, 12dB, but begin 

with a low boost setting (around 3dB) and try to stay below 6dB whenever possible. Remember that for every 

3dB of additional boost you dial in, you are asking the amplifi er to double its power output for a given signal 

in the boost region. 

6.  Remote Subwoofer Level Control (Remote Gain) – Let’s say the amplifi er’s gain is set at halfway. When the 

remote subwoofer level control is plugged in, you have external control of the gain from zero to halfway. The 

installation of this level control is NOT necessary to get full power from the amplifi er. 

Note: One Remote Subwoofer Level Control can control two or more amplifi ers using a mini plug Y-adapter. 

7.  Prizm EFX – Now that you have completed adjusting all your amplifi er settings, you can set the lighting effects 

to your personal taste. 

 

• Selecting Colors: You can change the backlit colors simply by turning the dial labeled PRIZM COLOR, located 

in the MTX PRIZM EFX section of the control panel, left or right. Starting at the left most position, the colors 

range from RED to GREEN, BLUE, and then RED again. You can choose any color in between making the 

combinations unlimited. 

 

• Selecting the EFX Feature: You can switch Prizm EFX lighting to “pulsate” with the beat of the music.  Simply 

depress the button labeled PRIZM EFX located in the in the MTX PRIZM EFX section of the control panel to 

turn this feature on or off.
