Crossover Adjust • If installing a subwoofer, the front and rear outputs will default to a 100Hz high pass filter to keep the low frequency signals out of the full range speakers. If a subwoofer is not being installed, change the front and rear crossover points down to 20Hz for a full range signal, or to the lowest frequency the speakers will play to.
