[. . . ] Although lengthy, this chart cannot address every single problem possible but mainly the ones most common.

[. . . ] On this amplifier, the choice is for either 50-250 Hz in LOW-PASS mode or "flat" mode. 4. ) INPUT GAIN CONTROL (ch 3 & 4) - This controls the gain setting on the input of the amplifier. For high gain settings ( 0. 3 volts), this says that it takes ONLY 0. 3 volts to drive the amp to full output. For low gain settings (near 4 volts), this says that it takes nearly 4 volts to drive the amp to full output. If the amp is often going into distortion at only moderate volume settings on the radio, rotate this control towards the 4 volts setting to reduce the distortion. 5. ) LOW LEVEL INPUTS - The more commonly used inputs, these are connected to the standard RCA outputs available on nearly all aftermarket radios today. These lines are dedicated to left and right outputs of the radio, be it for front or rear speaker installations. The input gain settings of the amplifier (0. 3 - 4 volts) are referenced to these inputs. 6. ) INPUT GAIN CONTROL (ch 1 & 2) - This controls the gain setting on the input of the amplifier. For high gain settings ( 0. 3 volts), this says that it takes ONLY 0. 3 volts to drive the amp to full output. 7. ) POWER "ON" LED - This light will turn on when the amplifier receives a +12 volt turn on signal from the radio in the vehicle. This leads to an overall richer and stronger sound experience for the listener without additional subwoofer boxes or electronics that may complicate the system or take up more room. Such a system WILL NOT equal the performance of a subwoofer system but will certainly be a pleasant improvement. With the addition of a high-pass filter, this amplifier is set up to complement a dedicated subwoofer amplifier/speaker system. This allows for smaller (e. g. , 5" or 6") satellite speakers to operate most efficiently without being over-driven in the bass region where a dedicated subwoofer system operates most efficiently.

This amplifier is able to drive speakers in stereo mode and at the same time drive low frequencies to a dedicated subwoofer speaker. By inserting inductors (coils) and capacitors, the result is an inexpensive solution to generating a `3' channel system with a 2 channel amplifier. Using passive components (coils and capacitors) the installation is simple and performs adequately for most listeners. Such a system will not perform as well as an "active" system because the slow attenuation (roll-off) of the frequency response resulting in a moderate amount of over-lapping of the sound spectrum between the satellites and subwoofers. It is important to remember that although surprisingly pleasant performance is achieved, this is a compromise system and will NOT perform as well as a dedicated 3 channel system with electronic crossovers. ­9 ­ SYSTEM CONFIGURATION #3 Full-Range Full-Range Crossover Position FLAT HI PASS Speakers + CH1 ­ + CH2 ­ Speakers + CH3 ­ + CH4 ­ Crossover Position LOW PASS FLAT + Bridged ­ + Bridged ­ Full-Range Full-Range 4 Channel Full-Range For many listeners, they need only slightly higher system loudness and/or music dynamic range without the amplifier going into distortion. By simply adding additional power to the speakers this can be achieved in many installations. BUT, the speakers must be able to handle this additional power without damage.
