About Time Correction
The distance between the listener and the speakers in a car vary widely due to the complex speaker
placement. This difference in the distances from the speakers to the listener creates a shift in the
sounds image and frequency characteristics. This is caused by the time delay between the sound
reaching the listener’s right versus the left ear.
To correct this, this unit is able to delay the audio signal to the speakers closest to the listener. This
effectively creates a perception of increased distance for those speakers. The listener can be
placed at an equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum staging. The
adjustment will be made for each speaker in 3.4 cm steps.
About The Crossover
This unit is equipped with an active crossover. The crossover limits the frequencies delivered to the
outputs. Each channel is controlled independently. Thus, each speaker pair can be driven by the
frequencies for which they have been optimally designed. The crossover adjusts the HPF (high pass
filter) or LPF (low pass filter) of each band, and also the slope (how fast the filter rolls off the highs
or lows).
Adjustments should be made according to the reproduction characteristics of the speakers.
Depending on the speakers, a passive network may not be necessary. If you are unsure about this
point, please consult your authorized Alpine dealer.
