LS4

24dB/Octave Active Stereo Crossover

The CD Horn EQ Switch:

The CD Horn EQ switch (#9,#20) allows the user to boost the upper frequencies by 12dB to compensate for
Constant-Directivity horns. The chart below illustrates the effect of this switch.

How to Use the Crossover:

With a Subwoofer:

Adding a subwoofer requires an additional power amplifier and a couple of cables. The basic connections are illus-
trated below.

Connect the line level output of your source (mixer, preamp, etc.) to the 

CHANNEL ONE BALANCED INPUT

of the LS4 

(A)

.

Connect the LS4’s 

CHANNEL ONE LOW OUT

to the input jack of the amplifier which will be used to power the sub-

woofer 

(B)

. Connect the LS4’s 

CHANNEL ONE HIGH OUT

to the input jack of the amplifier which will be used to power

the upper range speaker cabinet 

(C)

(Hint: Label the amplifiers “subwoofer amp” and “upper range amp” to avoid

confusion.)

Connect the amplifiers to their respective speakers. Repeat for channel two if used.
