What’s a Crossover?
Chances are if you’re reading this, you already
know what a crossover is – and you know that
you need one. But if you are new to multi-way PA
systems, here's a brief overview. Loudspeakers
(which we call transducers) convert electrical
signals into sound waves. And no matter how
well a transducer is designed or made, it simply
cannot reproduce the entire audio spectrum
all by itself. Low-frequency sounds tend to
push a transducer to the maximum, making
it impossible for that same transducer to
reproduce the treble content with the sound
quality it deserves. (Try singing high falsetto
next time you’re bench-pressing your limit!)

That's why high-quality sound systems use multiple speakers (woofers and tweeters) to
spread out the work. While the woofer (usually the larger transducer) does all the heavy
lifting, the tweeter can easily handle the high-frequency content. Three and four-way
systems distribute the work even more, allowing the individual transducers to reproduce
the frequency range for which they were designed. It is the crossover’s function to divide
these tasks between the various amplifi ers and transducers.

Divide and Conquer
The CX3400 provides three modes of operation:
2-way stereo, for Left and Right Lows (woofers)
and Highs (tweeters); and 3-way stereo, for
Left and Right Lows, Mids and Highs; and
4-way mono, for Lows, Low-Mids, High-Mids
and Highs. For your convenience, the CX3400’s
front panel features an elegant and easy-to-
read LED matrix, so you can see at a glance
which operating mode has been selected –
and which controls are currently active.
