The Peavey CS-1000X patch panel can also be used to biamp and/or provide special equalization capabili- ties for loudspeaker systems. Various electronic crossovers and special purpose modules are available in a broad range of frequencies for both Peavey and non-Peavey loudspeaker systems. More complicated sys- tems, such as stereo biamped, triamped, or even 4-way crossover systems are possible. We suggest you contact your Authorized Peavey Dealer for details. A typical stereo biamp system will be discussed in this manual. Referring to Diagram 3, the jumper plugs in both crossover accessory sockets (14) have been replaced by two-way crossover modules. Also, notice that the PL-2 transformer modules are still in the transformer accessory sockets (12). This configuration now has the makings of a complete stereo-balanced biamp system. The only thing required is an additional stereo power amplifier, which, together with the existing dual power amp sections of the CS 1000X, makes up the four independent power amplifiers re- quired for a stereo biamplification system. You will notice that because of the pin-out arrangements of the jumper plugs versus the crossover networks, whenever the jumper plugs are removed from the crossover accessory sockets (14), the power amplifier inputs for the respective channels are isolated (no longer con- nected to anything). In other words, the crossover modules and all associated connectors (as well as the PL- 2 transformers and respective XLR connectors) are islands unto themselves: in this case, two islands with
