Crossover point frequencies

are changed internally by

varying the value of 4 resis-

tors per channel. Full details

side the lid.

•  Balanced  XLR Inputs 

and 

Outputs

•  Additional summed mono Low output
•  2 way/3 way mode switch

•  Low and High Output controls for 2 way mode
•  Low, Mid and High Output controls for 3 way

mode

The crossover shall be a dual channel 2 way

or single channel 3 way unit in a steel chas-

sis six inches deep and one rack unit high.

There shall be a rear panel switch to put

the unit into either mode. The crossover

shall have true Linkwitz Riley 24 dB per oc-

tave, phase corrected state variable filters.
The front panel shall feature controls for

Low and High frequencies in dual channel

mode, and Low, Mid and High frequencies

in single channel mode.
There shall be corresponding outputs on the

rear panel, plus a separate mono low fre-

quency summed output. Each output will

have up to +6dB of gain available, to com-

pensate for amplifiers and speakers of dif-

fering sensitivities. There shall also be a pre-

set 30 Hz High Pass filter to remove unwant-

ed subsonics.
The unit shall have electronically Balanced

inputs, on TipRingSleeve (TRS) jack connec-

tors (Tip +, Ring -, Sleeve Ground), and XLR

connectors, with passive RFI filters and an

Input impedance of 20 Kohms (10 Kohms

unbalanced). The Outputs shall also be Bal-

anced, on XLR connectors, with an output

impedance of 300 ohms balanced (150 ohms

unbalanced),
The Input headroom shall be +21dB, with a

CMRR of better than 50dB, and the frequen-

cy response shall be 30 Hz, -0.5dB (as a func-

tion of the High Pass filter) to 20 KHz,

+0.16dB, and the maximum Output level shall

be +21dB, with a Signal to Noise ratio of -

93dB ‘A’ weighted (-90dB unweighted).
Total Harmonic Distortion shall be .004% @

0dB, 1 KHz, and the unit shall have a dynam-

ic range of 111dB.
AC Power shall be supplied via a removable

mains cable, connecting to an IEC connector

with an integral fuse and voltage change

switch on the unit’s rear panel.
The crossover shall be the ARX EC-2

•  Marker panels for labelling crossover assigns
•  2 way/3 way status LEDs

Our policy is one of continuous im-

provement, and therefore designs

may change without notice. Howev-

er, unless otherwise stated, specifi-

cations will always equal or exceed

those previously given.

fuse.
