SETTING THE SOUND
Setting the input level
To match your amplier’s input sensitivity (gain) to your source unit’s
output level, we recommend the following procedure:
Turn the input level control counterclockwise to MIN (minimum).
Play a dynamic music track through your source unit. Turn the
source unit’s volume control to the 3/4 position.
Turn the input level control dial clockwise towards MAX until
you hear distortion in the music (it’s no longer clear), then turn it
counterclockwise until the music sounds clear again. Your input
sensitivity is now set.

Crossover lters
You can adjust your Apex amplier’s lters to suit your listening
preferences and speaker conguration.
The PA454 lets you select no lter (OFF) for a full-range signal, or
engage a high-pass lter (HPF) on the front and rear channels, if
you’re powering speakers and have an independently powered
subwoofer in your system. Slide the switch to choose your desired
crossover point.
