there is no Input Gain

in Installer Menu
.
Presets
change sound to suit your circumstances.
Default Preset is Normal
(identical to previous model's Reference Preset).
Cinema Preset boosts bottom end at 40Hz for extra oomph during movies. Night preset reduces deep subwoofer frequencies
under
35Hz as a courtesy to family, friends, and neighbors. User 1, User 2, and
User 3 custom preset
s are configured via IP (only) for
special circumstances or different listeners using
2 parametric filters
&
a separate default Volume per User Preset. The amplifier
maintains its preset when put into standby. For repeatability, calibrate to default Normal preset.
RackAmp 700 DSP
drives speaker loads of 4 ohms or higher.
Use
with
8 ohm
Mini & Bronze subs
only
, as singles or in pairs.
