Soundstream BX-LOC1 Digital Bass Processor

The Soundstream BX-LOC1 package includes the following items:

• BX-LOC1 Digital Bass Processor Unit
• Bouton kontwòl bas a distans
• Wiring Harnesses for Power/Ground/Remote
• Mounting Materyèl
• Manyèl Itilizatè (dokiman sa a)

Choose a secure, dry location for mounting the BX-LOC1, away from direct heat or moisture. Ensure adequate ventilation. The unit's dimensions are approximately 4.5 x 6 x 1.25 inches (L x W x H). Use the provided mounting hardware to secure the unit firmly.

Refer to the diagram above for connection points. Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits.

• Pouvwa (+12V): Connect to a constant +12V power source from the vehicle's battery. Use an appropriate gauge wire and an inline fuse (not supplied, typically 1A-3A).
• Tè (GND): Connect to a clean, chassis ground point. Ensure good metal-to-metal contact.
• Remote In (REM IN): Connect to the remote turn-on output of your head unit or another switched +12V source. This turns the BX-LOC1 on and off with your audio system.
• Remote Out (REM OUT): Provides a +12V remote output to turn on your aftermarket amplifikatè (yo).
• High-Level Input (HI-LEVEL INPUT): If using a factory head unit without RCA outputs, connect the speaker wires directly to these inputs. Observe polarity (L+, L-, R+, R-).
• Low-Level Input (LOW-LEVEL INPUT): If your head unit has RCA outputs, connect them here.
• Sub Output (SUB OUTPUT): Connect these RCA outputs to the input of your subwoofer amplifier.
• Dash Remote: Connect the provided remote bass control knob to this port.

Before powering on, set the following switches:

• LOAD SELECT:
  • 20kΩ: For most aftermarket head units using RCA inputs.
  • 60Ω: For most factory head units using high-level inputs.
  • 20Ω: For specific factory head units with low impedance outputs.
• GND GROUND:
  • GND: Standard ground connection.
  • ISO: Isolates the ground to help eliminate ground loop noise.
  • 200Ω: Adds resistance to the ground path, useful for certain noise issues.

  Start with GND. If noise occurs, try ISO, then 200Ω.
• SORTI VOLTAGE: Select the desired maximum output voltage (5V, 7.5V, or 10V) based on your amplifier's input sensitivity. Start with 5V and adjust as needed.
• Mode deklanche:
  • REM AN: Unit turns on via the remote wire connection.
  • DC ON: Unit turns on when it detects a DC offset on the high-level inputs (for factory head units without remote output).
  • ODYO: Unit turns on when it detects an audio signal on the inputs.

  REM IN is recommended if your head unit provides a remote output.

• Pouvwa dirije: Limen vèt lè inite a limen.
• Clip ki ap dirije: Illuminates red when the output signal is clipping (distorting). Adjust input gain or output voltage to prevent clipping.
• WIDE Control (Min/Max): This knob adjusts the Q factor or bandwidth of the bass enhancement.
  • Min: Provides a narrower, more focused bass enhancement.
  • Max: Provides a broader, more encompassing bass enhancement.
• SWEEP Control (Min/Max): This knob adjusts the center frequency of the bass enhancement.
  • Min: Enhances lower bass frequencies.
  • Max: Enhances higher bass frequencies.

  Adjust WIDE and SWEEP to find the most impactful and natural-sounding bass for your music and vehicle acoustics.

• Dash Remote: The external remote knob allows you to adjust the overall bass output level from the driver's seat.
