EQUALIZER BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION FEATURES
The subwoofer output is an additional convenience when you
wish to add subwoofers to your audio system to
greatly enrich the bass sound.
It will perform with any unit operating in a 12 volt negative ground
electrical system.

Night Illumination Design
There are basically three types of equalizers: graphic, parametric, and a hybrid
of these two, often referred to as para-graphic. Additionally, there are passive
equalizers, which have no gain, active gain pre-amps, which have a again
stage usually with a volume control, and booster equalizers which we won't
consider here since they are inferior passive equalizers with inexpensive IC
amplifier built-in.
As in state-of-the-art home audio systems the optimum system requires a
dedicated pre-amp with enormous gain to drive the various power amplifiers.
Since home audio amplifiers do not have adjustable sensitivity, the require a
high output pre amplifier to drive them to maximum levels.
This unit is the first production pre amplifier to incorporate a specific
bandwidth parametric equalizer with 12dB boost or cut on its seven bands, it
can compensate for the seven acoustic anomalies unique to the automotive
environment. This unit easily becomes the "Mission control Center" of any high
end automotive sound system.
Congratulations on your purchase of your new pre amplifier-Equalizer. Our
sonic excellence is considered our most important objective. Your selection of
this component tells us you desire to achieve the same goal. Welcome to the
rapidly expanding group of discerning audiophiles who rely upon our

SYSTEM TURN ON: After completing all wiring and signal
connections you can now turn the system on.
ADJUST: Raise volume of the unit to maximum. Adjust left and right input gains
of the unit until half way between minimum and maximum. Gradually increase
source volume until clip. Begin gradually increasing input gains until distortion is
audible, then reduce slightly, System should be extremely load at this point. Turn
the volume control down to minimum and back up to comfortable level.
Volume changes should sound linear and balanced.
NOTES: Set your source volume at one -half to three quarter up and leave it.
Always use your volume as a master(main) volume control. It has better
electronics, higher S/N ratio and is more linear than any source unit volume
available. If engine noise is audible, try raising the volume on the source unit,
and/or check the ground connection on the unit.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
One of the best features of this unit is that it allows the listener to adjust each band
exactly to his own satisfaction, so please note that the correct settings depend
very much on the overall system itself and the individual musical taste of the
listener. Please check the settings for each band carefully before completing the
installation.
