- Setélan Gain Awal: Turn the Input Level Control (Gain) to its minimum setting.
- Crossover Setting: Set the Crossover Mode switch according to your speaker setup:
- FULL: For full-range speakers (no filtering).
- LP (Low Pass): For subwoofers. Adjust the Low Pass Control to the desired frequency (e.g., 80-120 Hz).
- HP (Lulus Luhur): For full-range speakers or component sets to filter out low bass. Adjust the High Pass Control to the desired frequency (e.g., 80-120 Hz).
- Bass Boost Setting: Start with the Bass Boost Control at its minimum setting.
- Daya Hurung: Reconnect the vehicle's battery. Turn on your car stereo. The ampIndikator daya liifier kedahna hurung.
- Ngaluyukeun Gain: Play a familiar piece of music at a moderate volume on your head unit. Slowly increase the Input Level Control on the amplifier until you hear distortion, then back it off slightly. This sets the gain to match your head unit's output without clipping.
- Setélan lemes: Adjust the Crossover and Bass Boost controls to achieve your desired sound balance. Make small adjustments and listen carefully.
