Fine frequency tuning
For fine frequency tuning use the dip switches on the rear
panel. One for high frequencies (Figure 1) and one for the
low frequencies (Figure 2).
High pass section settings
The dipswitch can be set to one of the six dB level
positions for an optimum high frequencies setting
Positions available: -3, -2, -1, flat, +1, +2 dB
Figure 1 : high frequency control
Low pass section settings
The dipswitch can be set to one of the four dB level
positions for an optimum low frequencies setting
Positions available: -1, flat, +1, +2 dB

Limiter function
The AV-100C(E) has a built in limiter developed to protect
the drivers against harmful signals. The limiter acts
directly on the input signal by decreasing it when it
reaches the clipping level.
To activate the limiter turn it to the on or off position using
the dip switch on the rear panel.
Figure 3: limiter switch
The overload LED indicates whether or not the limiter is in
operation.
LED comes :
• Red when the limiter is not in use.
• Orange when the limiter is in use.
Rear panel level.
Adjust the sound level by turning the main level knob to
the desired position.
The range of tuning is from 0 (maximum attenuation) to
max (no attenuation).
Adjust the knob (Figure4) to the necessary to attain a
perfect stereo image.
