CROSSOVER ADJUSTMENTS Hawkins Bass Control - Theory and Use The RUBICON amplifiers incorporate an on-board staggered electronic cross- over, with RCA outputs to drive an external amplifier. No external electronic cross- over is necessary. However, if you do desire to use an external crossover you still have the option.
( INSTALLATION STEP 1 SELECTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT MODE Channels 1 through 4 of the RUBICON & 805 amplifiers have the ability to operate in any one of the following modes: Stereo (STACT/Mxed Mono).= Use this mode for either stereo operation (left and right channels) or for Mixed Mono operation.
INST ALLATION STEP 3 INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING AMPLIFIER LOCA T/ON The RUBICON amplifier employs highly efficient circuitry, a custom-engineered heat sink, and a unique Chassisink construction to maintain lower operating tem- peratures.
