ZXi4408 / ZXi6408 / ZXi8408 4 CHANNEL AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS 

2 way active, or bi-amplified system with mono bass

This application shows how easily a 2 way active system can be implemented using 

Channels 3/4:

a Zeus 4 channel amplifier. Channels 1 and 2 will be used for highs, and channels 3 
and 4 for mono bass.

- HI PASS (subsonic): 20 Hz

- LOW PASS: 100 Hz

Interconnect cable checklist:

- We need to feed the same signal to both sets of channels, so must use 2 Y-adapters, 

Please  note  that  these  frequency  points  are  suggestions  only.  Refer  to  the 

one to feed the LEFT signal to channels 1 and 3, and the right signal to channels 2
