4 ch amp PB-836GX • PB-1036GX when used with normal, full range systems, set these switches to “FULL.”
If you wish to use the internal crossovers to power a driver of specific frequency range, use the “LOWPASS” or “HIGHPASS” settings.
use these controls to match the outputs of your head unit to the amplifier.
Starting with your head unit set at about the 2 o’clock position, increase the amp level controls until distortion begins to occur, and reduce slightly from this point.

power supply voltage dual bass boost level controls this control permits adjustment of the bass level up to an increase of approximately 18 dB in either or both pairs of channels.
14.4V DC Neg. Ground (10.5-16V) low level inputs matching speaker impedance stereo mode bridged mode high level inputs this amp features gold-plated RCA input jacks for high impedance input.
Use these with car stereo output which uses RCA-type connector cables.
if your car stereo lacks RCA-type output jacks, you may connect speaker output leads to these input connectors.
