Crossover Setup (Continued)…
Crossover On/Off Switches:
Sub Output Crossover Off
A full frequency range mono signal will be sent to the sub(s). You will need to
use the crossover frequency controls that are built into your subwoofer's
amplifier.
Sub Output Crossover On
The point where the highest frequency going to the Sub(s) starts to roll-off is
determined by the setting of the Low Pass frequency control.
Pre Output Crossover Off
Full Range signals will be sent to the left and right speakers and to the Pre
Output jacks.
Main Output Crossover On
The point where the lowest frequency going to the left and right speaker
terminals and the Pre Output jacks starts to roll off is determined by the
setting of the High Pass frequency knob.
Crossovers and the Bypass/Amp Input
The High and Low Pass Crossovers are always off when the Bypass Input is selected. In this
case the high and low pass filters are not active because it is preferable to use the bass
management you already selected in your surround sound receiver or processor's setup menu.
Where to Start with Crossover Settings
If you don’t know where to set the High and Low Pass Crossovers, these settings are a good place
to start. From here you can experiment until you find a combination that sounds best to you:
No subwoofer
Set the High Pass Crossover switch to Off
The Low Pass Crossover will not be used so this setting does not matter
When using one or more subwoofers and your Left and Right speakers'
woofers are 6.5” (165 mm) or smaller
Set the High Pass Crossover switch to On and the Frequency knob to 80 Hz
Set the Low Pass Crossover switch to On and the Frequency knob to 80 Hz
When using one or more subwoofers and your Left and Right speakers'
woofers are larger than 6.5” (165mm)
Set the High Pass Crossover switch to On and the Frequency knob to 50 Hz
Set the Low Pass Crossover switch to On and the Frequency knob to 50 Hz
