USING THE HP/LP 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 switch to the
4HP/1LP, 1LP, or OFF position.
NOTE: The low-pass filter works only on channel 5's audio signals. If
your application does not require a high-pass or low-pass filter, slide the
FILTER switch to OFF.
2. Slide the FILTER FREQ switch to a setting that is closest to the
recommended crossover points from the speaker manufacturer.
3. Listen to a variety of music styles (Rock, Rap, etc.) and try different
FILTER FREQ settings until the best performance js realized.
USING THE BASS EXTENDER
1. Initially set the BASS EXTENDER control to its full left position (i.e.,
OdB).
2. Listen to a variety of music styles (e.g., Rock, Rap, etc.) and slowly
increase the BASS EXTENDER control until a 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: If you hear a "pop" (due to speaker over-excursion), lower
the BASS EXTENDER to prevent speaker damage. If the system sounds
muddy and distorted (due to amplifier clipping), lower BASS
EXTENDER to avoid shutdown from overheating.
