Normal Operation
The subwoofer speakers are powered from a separate subwoofer amplifier. The clip detection circuit, 168 (RD/BK), carries out two functions to turn on the subwoofer amplifier and to indicate to the audio unit when the subwoofer output distortion signal reaches a damaging level. The audio unit then reduces the audio output signal to the subwoofer amplifier.

Possible Causes
