TRI-AMPED PA CABINETS WITH SUBWOOFER (refer to illustration at right)

This is highly generalized, but shows the main idea in cre- ating larger systems. In this example, the audio source material is connected to the inputs of all four DSP’s. Take care to keep right and left channel signals connected to the correct channels of downstream equipment. For example, keep all left channel signals routed through the channel 1 sections of downstream gear and all right channel signals routed through channel 2 sections of downstream gear. This preserves stereo imaging.

Each DSP would be setup independently with the appropri- ate crossover response and equalization for the specific driver being used. Refer to the speaker’s (or driver’s) docu- mentation for recommended frequency range, drive level, and any other applicable information. In the example at right, DSP #1 (assigned to high frequency drivers) might be set up for a high pass filter with a -3dB point of 6 kHz and high- speed limiters to protect them from transients. DSP #2 (as- signed to midrange drivers) might be set for a band pass filter, with -3 dB points at 1 kHz and 7 kHz using mild signal

limiting. DSP #3 (assigned to low frequency drivers) might provide a 45 Hz to 1100 Hz bandpass with EQ to remove modal resonances of the listening environment. DSP #4 (subwoofer drive) could be assigned a low pass filter with a -3dB point of 50 Hz and equalization as required. All the filters mentioned above would have assignable response type (where applicable) and assignable slope characteris- tics enabling precise tuning of the system.

Power requirements for high frequency drivers are gener- ally much lower than for low frequency drivers; this requires either reduced gain in the signal processing stage or the lower power amplifier for the high frequency drivers. The opposite is true for the subwoofers; they generally require the highest power to drive them, so assign your most pow- erful amplifiers to the lowest frequency drivers. Assign your amplifiers to the drivers according to the required power levels .
