OVERVIEW 

The ART CX310 Stereo 2-Way/ Mono 3-Way Active Crossover is a perfect addition to any sound 

reinforcement system. Designed for PA and fixed-installation applications, the CX310 employs 24dB/ 

octave state-variable, fourth-order, Linkwitz-Riley filters. These filters guarantee in-phase outputs at 

all frequencies. This ensures the proper acoustic summing of common signals from adjacent drivers 

in the crossover region. 
The CX310 may be used as either a stereo 2-way crossover network, splitting the signal in each 

channel into two separate frequency ranges (Lo and Hi), or as a mono 3-way crossover network, 

splitting one signal into three separate frequency ranges (Lo, Mid and Hi).  
Each channel features input level, high and low output level and crossover frequency rotary controls. 

A frequency 

x10

 switch is provided for varying the crossover frequency from the standard 80Hz - 

920Hz to 800Hz - 9200Hz. Front-panel output mute switches are provided for each individual output 

to ease system setup. The rear panel features balanced XLR and 1/4” TRS input and output 

connectors as well as a 2-way/ 3-way mode selector switch. Power for the CX310 is internal. 
The ART CX310 Stereo 2-Way/ Mono 3-Way Active Crossover has the features and performance you 

need for any audio application requiring a crossover. Housed in a rugged all-steel chassis, the model 

CX310 will provide years of reliable and continuous service.
