MAXXBASS PROCESSOR SETTINGS
To achieve proper performance it is important to set or tune the
settings on the
MaxxBass ® Processor to the final system. This
section recommends initial settings and the users can then further
adjust these for optimal listening.
1. CROSSOVER: The CROSSOVER control implements a -
24dB/octave low pass filter on the input. Set the CROSSOVER
control to OFF if the amplifier and speakers after the
MaxxBass ®
Processor are full range speakers or if passive crossovers are used
in the speakers. Set the CROSSOVER control to ON, if the
MaxxBass ® Processor is only used on a woofer channel and
separate amplifiers and speakers are provided for tweeters.
2. FREQUENCY: The FREQUENCY control should be set to 60Hz
for 6.5 inch door speakers and 80Hz for 5.25 to 4.0 inch door
speakers.
3. INPUT: The INPUT control is a signal attenuator for high voltage
inputs. The CLIP LED can be used to help set the maximum input
level setting prior to clipping. Start with INPUT control near MIN
position and increase INPUT level until the Clip LED lights
occasionally.
4. OUTPUT: The OUTPUT control provides a linear gain on the
output to help match signal levels to power amplifiers. Start with
OUTPUT control near MIN position and adjust accordingly to match
levels with other system components.
5. INTENSITY: The INTENSITY control provides an input to the
MaxxBass ® algorithm on the level of the effect. Start with
INTENSITY near MIN position and increase until the desired level of
bass effect is obtained.
The INTENSITY control on the MaxxBass ® Processor and Remote
Unit have identical functionality. At the MIN position on the
INTENSITY control, the
MaxxBass ® algorithm is in bypass, so that
no MaxxBass ® processing occurs.
