  • Page 19: Crossover Settings And Gain Adjustment

    CROSSOVER SETTINGS AND GAIN ADJUSTMENT Your Viper Audio power amplifier needs to be adjusted carefully to achieve maximum performance. These are some guidelines to follow when fine-tuning the amplifier. For full-range and simultaneous stereo/mono bass applications, the crossover selection switch should be set to FLAT. If the amplifier is driving your subwoofers, set the switch to LPF, and for mid-bass/midrange output, set to HPF.
