MONO AMP SET UP & ADJUSTMENT
Always check your speaker load with a multi-meter before hooking up to the amplifier. The PRX600.1V,
PRX1000.1V, PRX1500.1V amplifiers are 1 ohm stable. Any Impedance (load) smaller than 1 ohm will damage the
amplifier! Such damage is not covered under warranty, so pay strict attention to what connections are made to
CAUTION
the amplifier.
Sensitivity The sensitivity control is NOT a volume control. The sensitivity control adjusts the amount of signal required to
drive the amplifier to full output. With the sensitivity at maximum (full clockwise rotation), less signal voltage is required to
drive the amp to full output. With the sensitivity at minimum (full counter-clockwise rotation), more signal voltage is required
to drive the amp to full output.
Low Pass Filter (LPF) The low pass crossover, or filter, is designed to remove high frequency information from a subwoofer.
This is generally used to prevent mid-bass speakers or subwoofers from trying to reproduce mid and high frequency
information that they are not designed to reproduce. The crossover frequency is adjustable from 50Hz to 250Hz, and uses a
18dB per octave slope. Frequency selection is made by rotating the dial; clockwise raises the frequency and counter-clockwise
lowers the frequency. Most subwoofers should be set between 80 and 100Hz, depending on how low the mid-bass or
midrange drivers are capable of playing.
Bass Boost (45Hz) Boost should be used with discretion, keeping in mind that electronically enhanced boost places an
additional load on the amplifier and the speakers they are connected to. This control is fully variable from 0 – 18dB.
Infrasonic Filter This filter is fully variable from 15Hz-50Hz and removes unwanted frequencies below the frequency selection.
This filter is most useful with subwoofers loaded in a ported enclosure, which helps prevent unloading (rapid loss of power
handling below the port tuned frequency).
