PHASE SWITCH (All EL Amplified, SM8A, SM10A, and CS8A5)
When one of the High-level Input channels is out of phase electrically with
the other High-level Input channel, your Amplified Bazooka subwoofer will
sound as if it has little or no output and any output that is produced may
sound distorted. If you suspect that your Amplified Bazooka subwoofer is
out of phase, use the AM I IN PHASE procedure to diagnose and correct the
Amplified Bazooka subwoofer output, and proper bass response will be
produced.
To correct this situation, simply flip the phase switch on the Amplified Bazooka.
When the input signal is in correct electrical phase, the level of bass output
will be greatest when the balance control of the radio is set to the center
position.
SETTING THE LEVEL (All Models)
Locate the potentiometer labeled LEVEL. This is the level control. Start with
the level control turned all the way to the left (counterclockwise). The bass
should be off or very low at this point. Turn up your head unit until the sound
from the existing speakers starts to clip or distort. This is the point in your
system where you will get maximum volume with the least amount of
distortion. With the head unit at this point, turn the level gain control up
slowly until the bass volume blends well with the existing high frequency
speakers. This should be the proper setting for the level gain control. Now
that the level is set, you may want to go back to the x-over control and adjust
the x-over point by ear to meet the desired sonic quality of your system design
(All RS Amplified, SM8A-hp, and SM10A-hp models ONLY have adjustable
crossovers).
LED POWER INDICATOR
If power, ground and remote are connected properly, the green LED light will
illuminate.
WHITE = OFF (ALL RS Amplified, SM8A-hp, and SM10A-hp)
GREEN = NORMAL OPERATION (ALL Models)
RED = PROTECTION MODE (ALL RS Amplified, SM8A-hp, and SM10A-hp)
OPTIONS (All EL Amplified, SM8A, SM10A, and CS8A5)
Remote Bass Control (RBCM-EL):
If you find you like to change the level of bass depending on what you are
listening to and want an easy way to make this possible, you can purchase
an optional Remote Level Control.
