CONTROL PANEL

FRONT PANEL (SEE FIG 4 ON THE NEXT PAGE)
Bass Habit SPL Elite amplifiers are can be used for speakers and subwoofers in the range
between 15Hz - 20KHz. On the four channel and five channel amplifiers there is a crossover
switch for LOW/FLAT/HIGH mode as well.
While listening to music, adjust the gain/crossover/subsonic/bass boost for the least per-
ceived distortion from the speakers, allowing them to reproduce as much bass as possible.

Input level control (GAIN):

GAIN control is a seamless adjustable between 0,2V - 5V.
Tips for adjusting the GAIN control correctly:
- Initially turn the GAIN control to minimum (counter clockwise).
- On the source unit, increase the volume control to the 3/4 of maximum volume.
- Slowly increase the GAIN control until you hear slight distortion in the speaker/speakers
and the Clipping LED on the amplifier starts to flash or is lit.
- Then reduce the GAIN slightly until distortion is no longer heard or the Clipping LED no
longer flashes or is lit.

Bass Boost control (BASS BOOST):

Bass Boost is seamless adjustable between 0-12 db (50Hz)
Please use the BASS BOOST knob with care, excessive use can damage you system!

LPF Crossover (LPF):

The low pass filter is seamless adjustable between 50Hz - 6KHz or 50Hz - 20KHz depending on
the amplifier model. When using a subwoofer, set the frequency cut point at 50Hz and adjust
to your own preferences.

HPF Crossover (HPF):

The high pass filter is seamless adjustable between 15Hz - 3KHz or 15Hz - 6KHz depending
on the amplifier model. The HPF can be used for removing the deepest bass notes from
the subwoofer, get a tighter and more rhythmical sound. For a normal setup the HPF
should be adjusted to the "15 Hz" setting.

Remote Level Control (REMOTE):

Included with the Bass Habit SPL Elite two channel and five channel amplifier is a wired
subwoofer remote volume control with a clipping indicator. This allows you to adjust the level
from your listening position. Install the controller at a convenient position close to the driver
seat, and connect it to the REMOTE jack on the amplifier. NOTE! The level control will
attenuate from the lowest gain to the highest previously set on the amplifier.
Power status, Clipping & Protection LED:
• PWR = Power LED lights up when the amplifier is turned on. Normally during the start-up
sequence the PWR, CLIP and PRT lights will flash as a selft test procedure.
• CLIP = Clipping LED flashing or solid. This light is an indicator of distortion in the gain
structure and can possibly damage your speakers. Turn down your remote level controller or
gain knob.
• PRT = Protect LED light flashing or solid. This light is an indicator of the protect mode status,
see the trouble shooting section of the manual for more information.

Line Input:

Connect the line outputs from your source unit and connect to the Line L and R inputs.
