Crossover Filter Slopes

It should also be noted that the turnover frequency displayed on the screen is the -3dB point for all types 

except   Linkwitz-Riley where the -6dB point is shown. If the -6dB point is to be used for the Bessel or 
Butterworth filter, take the required crossover frequency, multiply this by the appropriate factor from the 
following table and then select the closest available frequency on the display.

Please note that unlike conventional analogue crossovers, crossover points and slopes are set with 

absolute accuracy since component tolerance problems do not occur.

Please see page 12 for details of how to adjust the high and low pass crossover filter settings.

Time Alignment

A further advantage of the 

DSP-2060A

 over conventional products is the provision of an independently 

adjustable delay section for each output. This allows the true arrival time from multiple drivers to precisely 
aligned rather than relying on the compromise 'phase adjust' approach. Delay time is adjustable in 0.3uS 
steps (0.1mm).

Please see page 12 for details of how to adjust the delay times.

To convert from units of time (i.e. milliseconds) to units of distance use the following formula:

1 millisecond = 343mm (1.126ft) @ 20Cº (68Fº) 

To calculate time delay for a known distance, use:

Time delay = Distance (in metres)

               20.06 x  273 + ºC

where ºC is the temperature in ºC.

To simplify this equation at 20Cº.

Delay (in mS) = 0.955 x Distancia (in feet)
(Distance in metres x 2.192) or (Distance in feet x 0.955)

Note: [ºC] = 0.5555 x ([ºF]-32)
