SECTION E : STEREO SET-UP WITH STEREO PREAMP
BI-AMPLIFICATION : 2 X S 2 X LCR500 (OR LCR300)
For studio monitor and stereo solutions that must deliver very high sound pressure levels, the RS700 can
be used for active bi-amplification. Two implementations are possible from a either preamp or mixing desk
with two pre-out outputs.
Important notes :
Configure the RS700 which is powering the speakers in "SPEAKER" mode, and ensure the right choice of
speaker model.
In stereo use it is imperative that the speakers must be high-pass filtered.
The switch (8) FILTERING
must be set to position 1 or 2 and NEVER in set in FULL position. Due to the
high power, listening at very high volume levels in wideband/large mode may present risks of mechanical
damage to the speakers.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE RS700 BASS MANAGEMENT IN SPEAKER MODE:
U-GUARD™, T-GUARD™ technologies are active on amplifier outputs (21)
The amplifier stages (21) operate as high-pass filtered and the XLR (19) outputs in low-pass mode.
The choice of frequencies and cut-off slopes is made via the switches (8) and (9)
The multifunction controller (3) (frequency button) controls the adjustment of the low-pass frequency
slope applied to the XLR (18) outputs to power subwoofers in LFE mode.
