FX68 Crossover BI-AMP APPLICATIONS For bi amp applications, the FX68 must be set to the Stereo mode regardless of whether you are running in stereo or mono. The Stereo mode configures the FX68 as two individual channels, each providing a two way split. If you are running your sound system in stereo, both channels would be used: one for the left, and one for the right. If you are running in mono, only one of these channels would be used but the FX68 would still be set to Stereo mode in order to achieve a two way split. The following procedure outlines the steps for running a bi-amped system in mono. Make sure the Mono Mode switch on the front panel of the FX68 is in the "out" position. Set the Channel 1 Low and High Level knobs to - infinity (fully counterclockwise clockwise). Connect from the output of the mixer or source signal to the Channel 1 input of the FX68. Connect from the Channel 1 Low Bal (for balanced lines), or Low Unbal (for unbalanced lines) to the input of the power amp driving the bass speakers. Connect from the Channel 1 High Bal (for balanced lines), or High Unbal (for unbalanced lines) to the input of the power amp driving the horns or high frequency speakers. Consult the manufacturers specifications for your speakers to determine the proper crossover frequency. [. . . ] Signal-To-Noise Ratio: Greater than -90 dB Filter Type: 18 dB/octave Butterworth state-variable filters. Crossover Frequencies Stereo: LOW/HIGH: 100 Hz to 10 kHz in two ranges.
