the original detail
&
nuances but it also has some pretty unique
features.With this device,you have the ability to either[a] maintain
separate FRONT[Line] and REAR [aux] inputs and outputs or[b]
utilizeeither of the line/aux.inputs,to obtain outputs on both Front
&
Rear plus Sub,with full fader control.Please see the expanded
functionaldescriptionsbelow.
A]
Using the line input only
[place linelaux switch in
"
IN"
position1,the following is realized -there would be no output on the
Rear channels but there would be outputs on both Front
&
Sub
sections. At this time the input
"
select
"
switch is in the
"
IN"
position,movingthis switchtothe out position,willproducean output
onthe Rear channelsaswell.The fadercontrol functions in favour of
"F"
orFront.

Using the Auxiliary input only
[placeline

OUT" position]

thefollowingis realized-therewould benooutput
onthe Front channels butthere would be outputsonthe Rear
&

sections. At this time, the
"
select" switch is inthe
"
IN" position;
movingthis switchto the out position, will cause ALL outputs
to
be
turned-off, there'd be no output whatsoever on any channels. The

Usingtwo sets of inputsonbothlineandauxiliary
[thelinelaux
switch can be either in or out],the following is realized-theprogram
material [music or other audio] presented on the aux. input will be
available onthe Rear
&
Sub channels,whilethe materials presented
tothelineinputswill beavailableonthe Frontchannelsexclusively. At
thistime,both switches line
&
aux are in the "IN" position,if the
"
select" switch [only] is now placed inthe
"
OUT" position,the
line-input channels' program material,will now be available on ALL
outputs

and auxiliary or

What arethe benefitsof the abovefeaturesyoumay ask: Well, for the
first time, you can incorporate a preamplifier to enhance the entire
system butstillmaintain
a
separationbetweentheFrontchannelsand
the Rear channels
,
ifthis is your preference.That way, you can add
pre or post equalization and or crossover functions to either Front
and/or Rear without affectingthe other! This isjust one example,the
onlylimithereisyour imagination..notethatwhileequalizationcanbe
added pre or post the preamplifier's processing we suggest that
crossover functionsbe added after or postpreamplifier processing.
