bass. Turn the source unit to maximum listening level. You should know 
that  some  source  units  will  produce  distortion  or  “clip”  before  the  unit 
reaches maximum volume. Reduce volume to the loudest listening level 
before distortion. Turn the gain knob on the Thunderform pre amp clock-
wise until the speaker starts to distort and reduce gain to loudest listening 
level before distortion.

control to be adjusted from the driver's seat.

Setting Crossover

You should set the crossover to your own personal listening taste. The 

crossover  is  adjustable  to  any  frequency  between  50Hz  (counterclock-
wise) to 150Hz (clockwise). As a guideline, the goal is to create the illu-
sion of bass up front. The higher the crossover point the more “audibly 
visible” your sub is going to be. Take your time and really listen to your 
system, grab a soda and a few of your favorite tunes and have fun.
