IN THE 2CH MODE , ONLY THE FRONT INPUTS AND REAR OUTPUTS ARE USED AND ALL 5 BANDS OF EQUALIZATION ARE AVAILABLE FOR USE . IN THE 4CH MODE , BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR INPUTS /OUT - PUTS ARE OPERATIONAL AND THE 3 EQ BANDS LABELED ÒFRONT A, B & CÓ ARE TIED TO THE FRONT INPUTS /OUT - PUTS AND THE 2 EQ BANDS LABELED ÒREAR A & BÓ ARE TIED TO THE REAR INPUTS /OUTPUTS . INPUT SENSITIVITY :FRONT AND REAR INPUT SENSITIVITY IS DESIGNED TO BE SET INDEPENDENTLY . TO ADJUST INPUT GAIN , PLACE THE JUMPER IN THE POSITION WHICH ALLOWS MAXIMUM GAIN BEFORE CLIPPING (DIS- TORTING ). I N THE 2 CHANNEL MODE , ONLY THE FRONT INPUTS (MAY ) REQUIRE ADJUSTMENT . P LEASE REFER TO THE CHART BELOW WHEN SETTING INPUT SENSITIVITY . THESE SETTINGS ARE DESIGNED TO BE A STARTING POINT OR REFERENCE . IF MORE INPUT GAIN IS DESIRED , MOVE THE JUMPER TO A HIGHER Ò+Ó SETTING . T O ACHIEVE LOWER GAIN , MOVE THE JUMPER TO ONE OF THE ÒÐÓ POSITIONS . THE P500 IS SHIPPED WITH THE F/R INPUT SENSITIVITY SET AT +10 dB. +20 dB = 100 Ð 300 mV +10 dB = 300mV Ð 1V 0 dB = 1V Ð 3V Ð10 dB = 3V Ð 8V Ð20 dB = 10V Ð 17V BALANCED LINE :XTANT ÕS BALANCED LINE TECH - NOLOGY MAY BE USED TO ELIMINATE INDUCED AND /OR GROUND -LOOP RELATED NOISE , RECEIVE SIGNAL FROM A BALANCED SOURCE , INTERFACE WITH A HIGH LEVEL SIGNAL (SPEAKER OUTPUTS ) AND /OR BE USED AS AN OEM SOURCE UNIT INTERFACE . E ACH SET OF INPUTS (FRONT /REAR ) OF THE P500 FEATURE BALANCED LINE CIRCUITRY . TO ACTIVATE THIS CIR - CUITRY , SIMPLY MOVE THE BALANCED LINE JUMPER TO THE ÒENGAGE Ó POSITION .

GENERALLY , THE BENEFITS DERIVED FROM BALANCED INPUTS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE OUTPUTS . FREQUENCY RANGE JUMPER : E ACH BAND OF EQUALIZATION HAS A FREQUENCY RANGE JUMPER WHICH DETERMINES THE RANGE OF CENTER FREQUENCIES AVAIL - ABLE FOR ADJUSTMENT . THREE RANGES ARE AVAILABLE : 20 TO200 H Z, 200 TO2,000 H Z AND 2,000 TO 20,000 H Z. T O SELECT A RANGE , SIMPLY PLACE THE JUMPER IN THE CORRESPONDING POSITION AS DETAILED IN THE ILLUS - TRATION . O NCE IN PLACE , THE FREQUENCY ADJUSTMENT POTENTIOMETER ALLOWS YOU TO SELECT ANY FREQUENCY WITHIN THAT RANGE . BOOST/CUT ACTIVATING T GATE IS DESIGNED TO TRACKS ON CD ÕS.
