OPERATION/INSTALLATION MANUAL
USING THE HP/IP FILTER
NOTE: Clarion recommends turning the amplifier off before changing any
switch position to eliminate any possible damage from transient spikes to
the amplifier or speaker system.
1. Depending on your application, slide the FILTER/BASS EXTENDER
switch to HP (high-pass) or LP (low-pass).
NOTE: If your application does not require a high-pass or low-pass filter,
slide the FILTER/BASS EXTENDER switch to BASS and turn the BASS
EXTENDER control full left to 0 dB.
2. Set the FREQ control set to the recommended crossover point from the
speaker manufacturer.
3. Listen to a variety of music styles (Rock, Rap, etc.) and slightly increase
or decrease the FREQ control until the best performance is realized.
USING THE BASS EXTENDER
NOTE: Clarion recommends turning the amplifier off before changing any
switch position to eliminate any possible damage from transient spikes to
the amplifier or speaker system.
1. Slide the FILTER/BASS EXTENDER switch to BASS. Initially set the
FREQ control full right to 200 Hz and turn the BASS EXTENDER
gain control to its middle position (i.e., +6 dB).
2. Listen to a variety of music styles (e.g., Rock, Rap, etc.) and slowly
decrease the FREQ control until no noticeable increase in low bass
response is perceived.
3. Slowly adjust the BASS EXTENDER gain control (up or down) to
realize the best bass response.
CAUTION: Ifyouheara "pop" (due to speaker over-excursion), lower
BASS EXTENDER gain or raise FREQ to prevent speaker damage. If
the system sounds muddy and distorted (due to amplifier clipping),
lower BASS EXTENDER gain to avoid shutdown from overheating or
raise FREQ until clear bass response returns.
