4.5 Digital Signal Processing
4.51 Full-Range Systems in Passive Mode
For full-range systems in the passive mode, the internal crossover/equalizer network sends low frequen-
cies to the woofer and high frequencies to the compression-driver/waveguide combination. In addition, 
the network tailors the frequency response and levels of each individual driver so that the overall frequen-
cy response of the loudspeaker is essentially flat over its design operating range.
Once a cluster of EVF and/or EVH systems is installed in a venue, a digital signal processor (DSP) will 
typically be used to adjust the in-room frequency response, based on the specifics of the situation. In 
addition, the DSP should be used to provide the high-pass filters recommended to protect EVF and EVH 
systems against overdrive at frequencies below their operating range. Failure to do so could damage the 
low-frequency drivers if fed high-level signals below the system’s operating range. Table 3 shows the 
recommend high-pass filter frequencies for infrasonic protection of EVF and EVH systems.  Different high-
pass filter frequencies are recommended for some fiberglass versions based on changes in operation 
range due to the effects of having a sealed enclosure.
