NOTES

Bi-Amping

 

 

 

ON

True bi -amping can also be

BI-AMPING

accomplished with an external electronic

(CONT'D)

crossover. See Figure 6.

Even greater

dynamics can be realized with bandwidth

 

 

limited amplifiers. If you decide to bi-amp,

 

please

follow

the recommendations

 

below :

 

 

 

 

 

1)Use at least a 12dB/octave high pass

 

filter no higher than 1500 Hz on the

 

tweeters.

 

 

 

 

 

2)Use at least a 12 dB/octave low pass

 

filter no lower than 6000 Hz on the

 

woofers.

 

 

 

 

 

This

“staggered”

active

arrangement

 

allows one full octave of bandwidth

 

between the amp’s active range and the

 

speaker’s passive range. This stagger

 

allows the purpose-designed passive

 

network to operate as intended. You will

 

gain

the

benefit

of

dedicated amplifiers
