Press this switch in to add a low-pass ﬁlter to the line-level mono outputs [17]. It turns them into line- level subwoofer outputs that play the low frequency range below the frequency setting of the LPF control knob.

Most active subwoofers have their own

crossover, and you should keep the LPF switch off in these cases. They usually

accept the full frequency range, and their crossover ﬁlters out the unused mids and highs.

If you want to run an external power ampliﬁer with a passive subwoofer, connect the mono output to the ampliﬁer's line-level input. Press the LPF switch in, and adjust the frequency knob to suit your subwoofer. For example, if your sub is still good out to 150 Hz, then set the frequency knob a little higher. The ampliﬁer will then just receive the lows, and will not have to waste energy and reserves powering the mids and highs.

When LPF is engaged, the adjacent LED will light as a reminder. The LPF frequency is adjustable from 75 Hz to 200 Hz, with 100 Hz straight up.

Whatever you use the mono outputs for, remember that the mono out knob [55] allows you to balance the level compared to the main left and right outputs [16] and speaker-level outputs [3].

The low pass ﬁlter only affects the mono line-level outputs. The main outputs and the internal ampli- ﬁers still receive the full frequency range.

55. MONO OUT

This knob allows you to adjust the level of the mono line-level outputs [17]. Adjust it to make your powered subwoofer, or mono loudspeaker match the level of the other loudspeakers in your system.

The mono output can be the full frequency range to run a mono PA for example, or just the low frequen- cies to run a subwoofer if the LPF [54] is engaged. Either way, this mono out control will let you adjust the level.
