Behringer Super-X Pro CX2310 User Manual

SUPER-X PRO CX2310 User Manual

If you want to operate a loudspeaker system, which consists of several 

loudspeakers covering different frequency bands, then you naturally have 

to work with suitably differentiated input signals for each loudspeaker. 

To do this you need a frequency crossover which can split the input signal 

into several frequency bands. A difference should be noted between passive 

crossovers which are wired between amplifier and speaker, and active systems 

which are placed before the amplifiers in the signal chain. Multi-way speaker 

systems can be found almost everywhere today—and not only in stereo 

systems, but in cinemas, discotheques and concert halls. As customers have 

become more demanding they can even be found now in such “simple” 

products as TV sets. Why? 
With the same sound pressure, low-frequency sound waves have a much 

greater amplitude (oscillation range) than high-frequency waves. When a single 

loudspeaker tries to produce bass and treble frequencies at the same time, 

a so-called intermodulation distortion will occur. This means that, when the 

speaker diaphragm is displaced by low frequencies, the treble frequencies seem 

to be raised in loudness, or lowered when the diaphragm reverses its direction.
We cannot therefore expect a single loudspeaker to reproduce signals, 

spanning the whole audible frequency spectrum at the same level of quality. 

If, using a frequency crossover, a loudspeaker only has to reproduce a limited 

part of the frequency spectrum and it will do so at a greatly increased level 

of quality— thus producing a more regular frequency response 

and dispersion pattern.

The BEHRINGER SUPER-X PRO CX2310 was carefully packed in the factory, 

in order to ensure safe transport. Nevertheless, should the box show signs 

of damage please check the equipment itself immediately for any signs 

of external damage.

Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling and please do not 

place the SUPER-X PRO on high-temperature devices such as power amplifiers, 

etc. to avoid overheating.

The fuse holder on the female mains connector has 3 triangular markings. 

Two of these triangles are opposite each other. The CX2310 is set to the operating 

voltage shown next to these markings. It can be set to another voltage by turning 

the fuse holder through 180°.
CAUTION: this does not apply to export models, which were designed 

Connection to the mains is made by means of a mains cable with 

an IEC receptacle which complies with the appropriate safety regulations.

Since the SUPER-X PRO offers a variety of features, we have provided the active 

controls with suitable light-emitting diodes. These displays help you to keep 

track of what is happening even in dark stage environments. Additionally, all the 

switches on the front panel are illuminated and can thus show which functions 

are presently active. There are two labels in the form of strips, located above 

the controls. The text of the upper label indicates mono 3-way, and the lower 

label indicates stereo 2-way mode. The LED’s set below these labels show which 

controls are active in the respective mode of operation.

First, activate the 2-way mode using the MODE switch on the rear panel 

(switch depressed). The STEREO LED on the front panel above the LOW CUT 

switch in the second channel lights up. 
The LED’s above the active control on the front panel then light up. They show 

you which controls are active for the mode of operation, which you have selected. 

The functions of these controls can be seen from the second strip label. In stereo 

operation the functions of both channels are identical, so that the numbers 

on the overview are shown for only one channel.
