Here are diagrams of my setup and my plan to add a crossover, amp, and sub.
Current setup (click here for HUGE version)
Planned setup (click here for HUGE version)
Components:
limiter = Behringer AUTOCOM PRO-XL MDX1600
crossover1 = Behringer SUPER-X PRO CX2310
crossover2 = PA's internal crossover
amp1 = PA's internal HF amp
amp2 = PA's internal LF amp
amp3 = Crown XLS 602D
When all is said and done, the signal chain will be:
mixer -> limiter -> crossover1 -> crossover2 -> amp1 -> tweeter, total 100W RMS for the highs (2 PAs)
mixer -> limiter -> crossover1 -> crossover2 -> amp2 -> 15" speaker, total 400W RMS for the lows (2 PAs)
and
mixer -> limiter -> crossover1 -> amp3 -> 18" woofer, total 450W RMS for the sub
This is the best way to do it with the listed equipment, right? Are the power numbers suitable for each other? The only thing I am not sure about is running the crossover1 as the sidechain of the limiter instead, but that seems to be making it needlessly complex. Any suggestions are welcome! :>
