Might try a keyword search. I'll look too and if I find anything coherent I'll link to it here.

HIGH PASS FILTER
The High Pass Filter, activated by pulling out the Bass control knob until a "click" is heard, rolls off all frequencies BELOW 30 Hz and allows all frequencies above 30 Hz to pass unaffected. The 3db down point of the filter is at 30 Hz and response is down 20db at 10 Hz. At higher volumes, this feature can be a real speaker saver as it inhibits cone excursion by disallowing sub-harmonics that can cause the voice coil to "bottom out" or "jump the gap." We strongly recommend the use of the high pass filter when playing at high volume levels. At lower volume levels and especially when a very "open" or fast sound is desired, leave the high pass filter in the off position.

In the end I think I'll just keep it. This is my second one...kicked myself in the ass for getting rid of the first one.
