Electro-Voice PSX2200 Music Mixer User Manual


 
5. Maximum amount of speakers in a passive configuration:
The PSX allows connection of up to three loudspeaker cabinets with an impedance of 8 ohms per channel. In other words: the internal power
amplifier is capable of driving a maximum of six 8 ohm speaker models. The following diagram shows how the speakers have to be connected.
6. Active stereo 2-way configuration:
In this example the internal power amplifier of the PSX is used to drive the Hi/Mid cabinets. An active cross-over is connected to the MAIN
OUTPUTS or the EQ OUTPUTS which carry the full-range signals. The LF-signal outputs of the crossover are connected to an external power
amplifier, driving the woofer cabinets. The signal of the crossover’s HF-signal outputs is fed into the PSX’s internal power amplifier via the
POWER AMP INPUTS. Compared to the passive configuration, the overall sound gains clarity and higher volume levels are possible, since
the Hi/Mid cabinets do not have to deal with the low frequency signals.
