How An Equalizer Is UsedThe Planet Audio PEQ10 parametric equalizer is a high-fidelity signal processor/preamplifier that allows you to control the relative levels within the audible frequency spectrum of a stereophonic system. It is intended for use in a car audio system which includes amplifiers in a signal path after the equalizer, and provides front, rear, and subwoofer low level outputs via RCA connectors.

Front Panel Controls And Key FeaturesFront Panel Controls And Key Features Master Volume Control: Use this to adjust the overall output volume level.
Fader: Use this control to balance the sound level between front and rear speakers as desired.
Auxiliary Input Selector: This button permits you to select the equalizer input source. The unit features separate rear RCA inputs for CD/DVD players and your choice of an AUX input.
Subwoofer Frequency: Use this knob to set the crossover frequency for the subwoofer output channel (i.e. it is a low pass filter)
Subwoofer Gain: This control permits you to increase or decrease the output level of the subwoofer channels.
Boost/Cut Controls: Each of these controls represent a range of frequencies surrounding a center frequency to cover the audio spectrum from subwoofer frequencies to treble frequencies. Adjust these controls to suit your taste and listening environment. Each center frequency can be adjusted +/- 12 dB.
