-The LINE INPUT signal is routed directly to the LINE OUT RCA jacks, regardless of the X-OVER setting simplifying daisy chaining of amplifiers.
-SUBSONIC: Allows you to adjust the crossover filter from 15Hz to 55Hz.
-LOWPASS: Allows yo to adjust the LOW PASS crossover filter from 40Hz to 150Hz.
LEVEL: Adjusts the input sensitivity from 0.2 volts to 6 volts.
BASSBOOST: 45Hz bass boost adjustable from 0db to 12dB.
REMOTE CONTROL: This is the input jack for the remote Level control.
LINE INPUT: The line input accepts unbalanced (RCA) inputs from 0.2V to 6V.

P1-2000.1 MONO BLOCK AMPLIFIERS
The 4 channel amps have the same features as the 2 channel models accept that there are 2 sets of controls. 1 set for channels 1 & 2 and 1 set for channels 3 & 4.
In addition, the 4 channel models have a Mode switch which allows you to select 2, 3 or 4 channel operation. Switch to 2 channel if you only have 1 set of RCA’s in CH 1/2 and
the unit will automatically supply signal to channels 3/4. Select 3 channel when you only have RCA’s in CH 1/2 but plan to run channels 3/4 bridged. Select 4 channel if you
are providing RCA’s to channels 1/2 and 3/4.
The X-OVER slide switch selects the internal crossover functions:
-The input signal is routed directly to the LINE OUT RCA jacks, regardless of the X-OVER setting simplifying daisy chaining of amplifiers.
-HPF: Selects the built in HIGH PASS filter, variable from 60 Hz to 12kHz.
-FULL: Bypasses all crossovers for full frequency range operation.
-LPF: Selects the built in LOW PASS , variable from 30 Hz to 250Hz.
In addition, the 4 channel models have a Mode switch which allows you to select 2, 3 or 4 channel operation. Switch to 2 channel if you only have 1 set of RCA’s in CH 1/2 and
the unit will automatically supply signal to channels 3/4. Select 3 channel when you only have RCA’s in CH 1/2 but plan to run channels 3/4 bridged. Select 4 channel if you

-BASS EQ: Adjustable 45Hz bass boost from 0dB to 12dB.
Note that the LOW PASS signal is MONO.
-In the LPF position, the HIGH PASS filter acts as a subsonic filter.
-When the LPF mode is selected, a 0 to +12dB, at 45Hz, BASS -EQ is also switched in.
