Infrasonic Filter:
Turn for .
Turn for and
set the knob to Hz.
Bass EQ:
Generally not necessary in W7 applications (we recommend defeating it by
switching the & switch to ). May be used with Remote Bass
Control to provide some user controllable broad bass boost. When used in this
manner, set&to , set -to Hz, is defeated by
connection of Remote Bass Control.
Input Sensitivity Controls:
Proper adjustment of these controls is critical!
For virtually all aftermarket head units,
set #,'* to $/.
See #,++.+0+*!+
on pg. 14 for precise setting instructions.
Dual Mono Speaker
Output Connections:
Connect wire directly to
and 2(/),
connections and to the W7.
Remote Bass Port:
Permits connection of an
optional remote bass boost
controller (RBC-1), giving you
control over the boost of the
parametric EQ from the front
of the vehicle. The RBC-1
controller is sold separately.
Amp Low-Pass Filter:
Set%,switch to .
Set + -"1 knob to .
Lower settings are likely to result in a
poor transition between the upper
response of the W7 and the lower
response of the mid-bass speakers.
Amplier Input:
Connect RCA-type
cables from the head
unit (or processor) to
these two jacks.
Use both jacks
(with a Y-adapter
if necessary).
Output Polarity:
Carefully listen to the sub-bass to
mid-bass transition with music that
has strong mid-bass content. Select
the switch position which gives the
smoothest, most natural mid-bass
response. If using multiple 1000/1’s
on multiple subwoofers, make sure
this switch is set to the same position
on all ampliers.
JL Audio 1000/1v2:
These settings are intended
as a “baseline” for tuning
your system. Depending
on your vehicle and your
preferences, some variation in
the crossover and bass control
settings may be necessary
for optimum performance.
