6The bass-boost filter in the MS Series amplifiers is a shelf filter that boosts or cuts bass below 60Hz, but never above160Hz. The range of adjustment is +/–10dB. Additionally, the bass boost or cut is sent to all the amplifiers with which thecontrol is paired. The bass control works with the crossover filters to ensure that the proper amount of boost or cut issent to the subwoofer and the mid-bass or midrange speakers, so the character and apparent location of bass soundsremain constant. See Figure 5b for the performance of the MS-WBC (as opposed to that of conventional bass controls,as shown in Figure 5a).CAUTION: Installation of car audio components requires experience in performing mechanical and electrical proce-dures. If you feel you lack the required experience or necessary tools, please have your amplifier installed by a qualifiedprofessional technician.CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the negative (–) battery terminal to prevent the battery from being drainedwhile you work on the car and also to prevent damage to the unit.reAd THis BeFOre sTArTiNG iNsTALLATiON!1.
