| Behringer CX-3400 3-Way Stero/4-Way Mono Frequency Crossover with Limiters
The CX3400 is an active frequency crossover enabling 2 or 3-way stereo or even 4-way mono operation. Each band features two 24-dB Linkwitz-Riley filters, as well as individual IGC limiters, while the integrated delay enables flexible time alignment. Polarity switches for each output allow quick and easy runtime compensation for various driver and horn types.2

The ARX EC-2 is a flexible yet affordable 24 dB per octave Phase Correct active crossovers. It has 2 modes of operation; as either Stereo 2 way or a Mono 3 way units, with a switch on the back panel selecting either mode.
Features Ultra low noise circuitry Totally phase aligned at crossover point Switchable Dual Channel 2 way or Single Channel 3 way Unique 'semi-fixed' crossover point 24dB per octave (Fourth Order) Linkwitz-Riley filters Separate Summed Mono Output Balanced Inputs and Outputs Built in High Pass filters Intuitive, 'user friendly' layout Flawless performance in any audio environment
Tamper-Proof Crossover Points The crossover points are determined internally by the value of 4 resistors per channel; changing the resistor value changes the crossover point. This 'semi fixed' method avoids the pitfalls of externally adjusted crossover points, making the crossover points tamper-proof once they are set. Idle fingers can't fiddle with the crossover points and create havoc with the system! As a handy guide, a list of common crossover points and their corresponding resistor values are printed inside the unit's lid, and also set out in the Owner's Manual. On the front panel are level controls for Low and High in dual channel 2 way mode, and Low, Mid and High in single channel 3 way mode, with corresponding Outputs on the rear panel.
Balanced Inputs and Outputs EC-2 has Balanced Inputs and Outputs, on XLR connectors. The EC-2 also has an additional summed Mono Low output, for applications that need a Mono Low feed (e.g. Left and Right full-range plus a single Sub Bass speaker). High Pass Filter There is also a preset 30 Hz HighPass filter to remove unwanted subsonics which can damage speakers and waste amplifier power. In addition, each output has up to +6 dB of gain available, to compensate for amplifiers and speakers of differing sensitivities. Universal AC Power AC power range is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240VAC, and is connected to the unit via a standard IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage change switch. Uncompromising Audio Quality Innovative circuit design is pointless unless it delivers stunning sound quality, and here the EC-2 excels. It has been designed for uncompromising audio quality, and to achieve this, Linkwitz Riley 24dB (Fourth Order) state variable filters are used throughout, ensuring a smooth Phase Correct transition through the crossover region. From Stage Monitors to Studio Monitors, from Front of House to the Front room of your House, the ARX EC-2 is a crossover that is suited to any application that requires flawless, transparent sound. You'll never compromise on Quality when you choose ARX

With the DSP 260 digital 2-in-6 sound system manager, DYNACORD is continuing its proud tradition in the fi eld of innovative digital signal processors. Based on the most modern hardware, this system manager offers tried-and-tested as well as new algorithms for the simple and swift construction of active multi-way systems. As much importance has been attached here by the developers to high user-friendliness as to the realization of an extremely favorable price. 24-bit sigma-delta AD/DA converters and a 32-bit floating-point signal processor make possible a dynamic range of 111 dB. In addition to the two analog inputs, a digital stereo input in AES/EBU format is available. A -6 dB pad switch in front of the AD converters offers additional security against overload when the device is connected to mixing desks with very high output levels. The 6 individually mutable outputs are electronically balanced and available on XLR sockets. For all inputs and outputs, easily read LED level meters are provided on the front panel. Users can choose whether to configure their own systems at the device itself using the controls and display provided or else by means of the intuitive editing software. 3-way stereo, 2-way stereo + FR, 4-way mono + FR etc. Furthermore, factory presets compatible with those of the tried-and-tested DSP-244 are available for Dynacord loudspeaker systems. In terms of DSP, the device offers parametric and graphic EQs as well as a delay function in the input and crossover, channel EQ, channel delay and a level control with limiter in each output channel. An RS-232 interface allows Master/Slave operation of multiple devices as well as GPI switching of settings. A PC (the editing software runs under Windows) can be connected via the USB interface on the front panel. A variable parameter lockout function allows you to determine which settings and parameters can be accessed directly at the device. This is just one of many features that make the DSP 260 an ideal choice also for the rental business. The wealth of features combined with its outstanding audio performance and favorable price commend this audio system manager for a multitude of professional applications.

| | Advanced Feedback Suppression Processor with Full LCD Display
The AFS2 Dual-Channel Advanced Feedback Suppression Processor from DBX protects your ears and audio equipment from annoying and potentially damaging audio feedback without altering your sound. The AFS2 features application-specific filter types for speech, music low, music medium, and music high. The 24 fixed or live narrow-band notch filters are capable of removing frequencies at 1/80 of an octave, ensuring an optimal frequency response without the possibility of feedback.
The front panel features the wizard function to take the guesswork out of setting up any room by incorporating an advanced feedback suppression module and providing a full LCD display for system settings and menus. Additionally, the AFS2 offers a five-segment LED for accurately monitoring input levels for each channel, while the notch filter indicator allows you to monitor the number of filters applied. Dedicated bypass buttons are included to help isolate problem channels. The rear panel offers XLR and 1/4" inputs and outputs, both switchable between +4 and -10 dB operations. A USB port has been provided for firmware updates. The AFS2 ships with a standard IEC power cable.
