inPut sensitiVitY Controls
The controls labeled "Input Sens." located in
each channel section can be used to match the
source unit's output voltage to the input stage of
each pair of amplifier channels for maximum
clean output. Rotating the control clockwise will
result in higher sensitivity (louder for a given
input voltage). Rotating the control counter-
clockwise will result in lower sensitivity (quieter
for a given input voltage.)

Filter Controls
Most speakers are not designed to reproduce
the full range of frequencies audible by the human
ear. For this reason, most speaker systems are
comprised of multiple speakers, each dedicated
to reproducing a specific frequency range. Filters
are used to select which frequency range is sent
to each section of a speaker system. The division
of frequency ranges to different speakers can be
done with passive filters (coils and/or capacitors
between the amplifier outputs and the speakers),
which are acceptable and commonly used
for filtering between mid-range speakers and

tweeters. Filtering between subwoofer systems
and satellite speaker systems is best done with
Filter Mode
active filters, which cut off frequency content at
the input to the amplifier. Active filters are more
O | HP | LP
stable than passive filters and do not introduce
Filter Freq. (Hz) Filter Freq. (Hz)
extraneous resistance, which can degrade
subwoofer performance.
The active filter built into each channel section
of the XD800/8v2 can be used to eliminate

potentially harmful and/or undesired frequencies
from making their way through the amplifier
sections to the speaker(s). This serves to improve
tonal balance and to avoid distortion and possible
speaker failure. Correct use of these filters can
substantially increase the longevity and fidelity of
your audio system.

1) "Filter Mode" Control: The XD800/8v2
employs a 12dB per octave filter for each
pair of channels. Each of these filters can be
configured independently into one of two filter
types or defeated completely by way of the
three-position "Filter Mode" switches:
"Off": Defeats the filter completely, allowing
the full range of frequencies present at the inputs
to feed the amplifier. This is useful for systems
utilizing outboard active crossovers or requiring
full-range reproduction from one or more of the
XD800/8v2's channel pairs.
"LP" (Low-Pass): Configures the filter to
attenuate frequencies above the selected filter
frequency at a rate of 12 dB per octave. This is
useful for connection of subwoofer(s) to one
+12 VDC Ground
or more of the XD800/8v2's channel pairs in a
bi-amplified system.
"HP" (High-Pass): Configures the filter to
attenuate frequencies below the selected filter
frequency at a rate of 12 dB per octave. This is
useful for connection of component speakers to
one or more of the XD800/8v2's channel pairs in
a bi-amplified system.
2) "Filter Freq. (Hz)" The filter frequency
markings surrounding this rotary control
are for reference purposes and are generally
accurate to within 1/3 octave or better. If you
would like to select the filter cutoff frequency
with a higher level of precision, consult the
chart in Appendix B (page 15).
Tuning Hint: If you are using the XD800/8v2
to drive a subwoofer system ("LP" mode), a
component satellite speaker system ("HP" mode)
or both, 80 Hz is a good baseline "Filter Freq.
(Hz)" setting. After properly adjusting the "Input

INPUT SECTION
With the addition of the optional Remote
Level Control (HD-RLC), you can control the
volume of two, four or all eight channels of the
XD800/8v2 from the front of the vehicle. This
feature can be used for subwoofer level control,
rear channel level control, zone control, or even
as a master volume control for the system.
The HD-RLC connects to the jack labeled
"Remote Level Control" on the Connection Panel
of the amplifier using a standard telephone cable
(supplied with the HD-RLC). If desired, multiple
XD (and HD) amplifiers can be controlled from a
single HD-RLC controller using a simple,
non-duplex phone line "splitter" and multiple
phone cables.
When connected to the amplifier, the
HD-RLC operates as follows. At full counter-
clockwise rotation, the audio will mute
completely. At full clockwise rotation the level
will be the same as if the HD-RLC was not
connected at all. In other words, it operates
strictly as a level attenuator.
