SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS
The XD700/5v2 is a very flexible amplifier,
well-suited for a multitude of system
configurations. In this section, the most likely
configurations for a system with a single
XD700/5v2 are explained in detail.

BI-AMPLIFIED SYSTEMS
Bi-amplified systems are defined as systems
in which separate amplifier channels drive low-
frequency (LF) and high-frequency (HF) speakers
and are separately filtered to send appropriate
frequency ranges to each speaker system.

The most common application of
bi-amplification in mobile audio is to drive a
subwoofer system from one or more amplifiers or
channels and component speakers from separate
amplifiers or channels.

The XD700/5v2 can be configured to drive a
bi-amplified system by itself.

In this configuration, the Subwoofer Channel
of the XD700/5v2 will drive a subwoofer system
with low-pass filtering. The Main Channels (1&2,
3&4) will drive component speakers in stereo
with high-pass filtering.

the shallower “12dB” setting is more desirable for

wagon application. Experiment to find the slope
setting that results in the smoothest subwoofer to
midbass transition.

Next, turn your attention to the “CH 1 & 2”
Controls and select “x1” (high-pass) on the “HP
Filter Mode” switch and select an appropriate
“Filter Freq.” (again, 80 Hz is a good starting
point). The “x1” setting means that the Filter
Freq. indicated on the dial is exactly what you are
selecting. (In the “x10” mode, the actual Filter
Frequency is ten times higher than the indicated
value. This setting is generally not used in
bi-amplified systems.)

Tri-Amplified Systems with one XD700/5v2
The XD700/5v2’s 3-way crossover capability
allows you to create true, tri-amplified systems by
selecting the appropriate settings described below.
selecting the appropriate settings described below.
In a tri-amplified configuration, the
Subwoofer Channel of the XD700/5v2 will
drive a subwoofer system, in mono, with
low-pass filtering. Channels 3 & 4 will drive
component woofers (or mid-range speakers) in
stereo with bandpass filtering (both a high-pass
and a low-pass filter applied). Channels 1 & 2
will drive high-frequency speakers (tweeters,
typically), in stereo, with high-pass filtering.
