Configuration
Audio Amplifiers
All AMP1 Series models contain high performance speakers driven by
three power amplifiers; two amplifier/driver combinations handle
midrange and high frequency information in the left and right (stereo)
speaker channels, while the third amplifier channel sums the left and
right channel information below the 500 Hz crossover point in the
woofer (bass) speaker(s). Note that the woofer channel is not a
dedicated LFE or center channel.
Speaker Configuration
The 1U rack size AMP1 Series products are configured with two
speakers (left and right) to reproduce mid- and high-range audio
frequencies (in stereo), but feature two woofer speakers to reproduce
the summed (combined) low-range audio frequencies from the left and
right speaker input channels. It should be noted that both woofer
speakers, which are wired in series, are driven from one woofer
speaker channel, and are not stereo. See the simplified diagram below
for a block diagram of the AMP1 Series audio amplifier/speaker
configuration.
