Frequently Asked Questions
Clarion MCD360V 3-Way 6-Channel Electronic Crossover with Subwoofer Control | New
How many output channels does the Clarion MCD360V provide?
The MCD360V provides six RCA output channels arranged as stereo front, stereo rear and stereo subwoofer outputs.
Can it be used in a two-way car-audio system?
Yes. It can operate in a two-way configuration with front and rear high-pass outputs plus a low-pass subwoofer output while preserving front-to-rear fader functionality.
Can it support a full three-way active system?
Yes. In a three-way system, the front output can feed the tweeter amplifier, the rear output can feed the midrange amplifier, and the subwoofer output can feed the bass amplifier.
Which RCA input configurations are supported?
The unit can accept one, two, or three stereo RCA input pairs, allowing it to work with two-channel, four-channel, or six-channel source configurations.
What is the front crossover frequency range?
The front high-pass crossover is continuously adjustable from 32Hz to 400Hz. Activating the ×20 multiplier changes the effective range to approximately 640Hz–8kHz.
What is the rear crossover frequency range?
The rear high-pass crossover can be adjusted continuously from 32Hz to 400Hz.
What is the subwoofer crossover frequency range?
The low-pass subwoofer crossover is adjustable from 45Hz to 250Hz, allowing it to be matched to different speaker sizes and enclosure designs.
What crossover slope does the MCD360V use?
It uses an 18dB-per-octave, third-order Butterworth crossover slope for the front, rear and subwoofer filtering sections.
Does the crossover include a remote bass control?
Yes. A wired remote subwoofer level controller allows the driver to adjust bass output without accessing the crossover chassis.
Does connecting the remote change the main subwoofer control?
Yes. When the wired remote is connected, it takes control of the subwoofer output level and overrides the corresponding level adjustment on the crossover chassis.
How much bass boost is available?
The high-Q bass boost circuit is adjustable from 0 to +18dB, with its center frequency selectable between 25Hz and 100Hz.
Should maximum bass boost be used continuously?
Not necessarily. Excessive boost can cause amplifier clipping, overheating, or excessive subwoofer excursion. It should be increased gradually while listening for distortion or mechanical stress.
Does the MCD360V include a subwoofer phase adjustment?
Yes. A 0°/180° phase switch reverses the subwoofer signal polarity to help improve bass integration with the front and rear speakers.
What is a non-fading subwoofer output?
A non-fading output maintains the subwoofer signal when the source unit’s front-to-rear fader is adjusted, helping preserve consistent bass throughout the vehicle.
What is the maximum output voltage?
Clarion specifies a maximum RCA output level of 5 volts, with an output-gain capability of 1:2, or approximately +6dB.
Does the crossover contain a built-in amplifier?
No. It is a preamplifier-level signal processor and must be connected between a source unit and one or more external amplifiers.
Which electrical system does it require?
The MCD360V is designed for a 12-volt automotive electrical system with negative-ground wiring. The manual lists a nominal 14.4V DC power source and a maximum current draw of 0.5 amp.
Can it be installed next to a subwoofer enclosure?
Clarion advises against mounting the crossover directly to a subwoofer enclosure or in another area exposed to heavy vibration. It should be secured to a rigid, dry surface with access to its tuning controls.
Is professional installation recommended?
Yes. Correct power, ground, remote-turn-on, RCA routing, crossover settings, and amplifier gain adjustment are essential for safe and reliable operation. Clarion recommends consulting an authorized installer when wiring requirements are uncertain.
Why choose the Clarion MCD360V 3-Way 6-Channel Electronic Crossover?
Choose the Clarion MCD360V for its flexible two- or three-way system configurations, six-channel RCA design, continuously variable 18dB crossovers, 5-volt outputs, independent level controls, remote subwoofer adjustment, bass boost, phase control and proven ability to provide detailed analog tuning for multi-amplifier car-audio systems.
