Midrange: 300 Hz to 3 kHz –
Musical instruments, vocals, mid-range
percussion and many things we associate with imaging and staging
happen in this area of the bandwidth. For that reason you will want to
keep this area as smooth and balanced as possible. Too much boosting
can make you feel like your listening to your system in a tile bathroom.
Not enough energy the midrange sounds empty and dry.
Treble: 3 kHz and Up –
If midrange is the cake, then these high or up-
per frequencies are considered the frosting. Many autosound systems
start a gradual decline in this area which is why speaker placement is
very important. The DQ-61 only gives you a few controls in this area
because too much boosting can really make a speaker sound unnatural.
Signal Summing Inputs and Parallel
Outputs
The DQ-61 has the capability to combine together multiple (2, 4, or 6)
input signals from the factory source unit into 2 channels. Some factory
audio systems produce actively crossed over signals from the ampli
-
fier feeding signals to the tweeter, midrange, and woofer. The DQ-61
lets you take all of those signals and sum them together to get a high
quality, full range, pre-amp signal. Simply move the summing jumper
for the desired channel into the “On” position. If the green LED for that
channel is on, you know it is being summed into the main output. Addi-
tionally, when you Sum signals together, the signals coming from Front/
Main and Rear/Ch2 are now paralleled providing dual full range signals.
This provides lots of flexibility in your system design.
AutoMode Inputs:
Your DQ-61 is equipped with AudioControl’s unique
AutoMode circuit input that allows for the Rear/Channel 2 input signal
to automatically feed the Sub/Channel 3 outputs, when there is no
signal present on Channel 3. This allows your DQ-61 to accept front and
rear inputs channels and give you three output channels (Front, Rear,
and Sub).
