ACTIVE CROSSOVERS
ACN crossovers are designed for tri- or
bi-amplified active loudspeaker systems.
Four- or five-way systems require more
than one unit (depending on whether
there are required for stereo or mono
operation). All models are state variable
with 24 dB/octave Linkwitz-Riley filter
topology, shelving equalization on each
output, and configuration for mono sub
bass operation.
ACN crossovers can be used as stand
alone high or low pass filters with the re-
maining filters available as full range
outputs.
Crossover frequencies ACN 2C:
80, 160, 250, 330, 400. 500, 600, 660, 800, 840, 950,
1000, 1100, 1200, 1300 and 1400 Hz.
Crossover frequencies ACN 2S:
40, 50, 60, 65, 75, 82, 90, 100, 110, 115, 125, 135, 140,
150, 160 and 165 Hz.
Crossover frequencies ACN 3C:
Lo-Mid; 80, 125, 170, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 440,
480, 530, 580, 620, 660, 700 and 750 Hz.
Mid-Hi; 500, 800, 1000, 1300, 1600, 2000, 2300, 2500,
2800, 3000, 3300, 3700, 4000, 4600 and 4800 Hz.
DIGITAL SPEAKER PROCESSOR
The DSP 24 is a 2 in and 4 out digital
crossover and speaker equalization sys-
tem, which offers outstanding versatility
for loudspeaker systems.
The DSP 24 combines the function of
a 2-way stereo or 3/4-way mono active
crossover unit, with a system equaliza-
tion corresponding to a 66 band para-
metric equalizer. In addition, each out-
put of the DSP 24 also has independent
time delay, to acoustically align the spe-
akers and/or drivers. Each output also
has a mute switch, a digitally program-
mable analog gain control and limiter
threshold with front panel control
knobs.
Visual Interactive Equalization
Workbench, VIEW
The system equalization and crossover
filters in the DSP 24 are user definable,
in a proprietary software package,
VIEW, running on a PC. A library of de-
fault setups, and a library of amplifier
and speaker specifications are also in-
cluded, to which the user can add any
amplifier or speaker. The VIEW Pro
software can import speaker measure-
ments into the PC and suggest a “best
