{"product_id":"dbx-234xs-filtre-actif-stro-145576","title":"234XS - STEREO ACTIVE FILTER","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Classic in Multi-Way Management to Optimize Your Speakers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dbx 234xs is designed to bridge your mix (console, processor, interface) and a multi-way speaker system, ensuring clean and controlled frequency distribution. Its \"pro processor\" approach relies on Linkwitz-Riley 24 dB per octave filtering, a standard appreciated for achieving more controlled band overlaps and a more coherent sum at the crossover point. The result: a better-aligned system, clearer sound, and generally easier setup in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For and What Are Its Uses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis stereo active crossover is aimed at users who want to get the best out of their powered or passive speakers (with separate amplification): sound providers, touring bands, demanding DJs, rehearsal rooms, places of worship, clubs, or fixed installations. In stereo 2 or 3-way mode, it allows energy distribution between sub, low\/mid, and high frequencies depending on your system configuration. In mono 4-way mode, it becomes an effective tool for setups requiring more output channels or a more \"system tuning\" approach on a central sound source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControl, Safety, and Precision: Key Features of the 234xs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eLinkwitz-Riley 24 dB per Octave Filtering\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 234xs uses high-precision Linkwitz-Riley 24 dB per octave filters. This slope type promotes clear separation between channels, limits unwanted interactions, and helps maintain a more stable balance when adjusting each band's levels. It is a relevant choice to fully exploit the characteristics of multi-way speakers and achieve a more homogeneous sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePractical Adjustments for System Alignment\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach output has its \u003cstrong\u003eindividual level control\u003c\/strong\u003e, an essential feature for quickly balancing your system according to amplifiers, speakers, and room acoustics. \u003cstrong\u003ePhase inversion\u003c\/strong\u003e on all outputs facilitates corrections in case of phase issues between channels (for example, between sub and tops) and saves time during testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e40 Hz High-Pass Filter and Bass Summing for Subwoofer\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e40 Hz high-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e helps limit unwanted very low frequencies, often sources of \"rumble,\" headroom loss, and unnecessary speaker strain. For subwoofer management, the 234xs includes a \u003cstrong\u003elow-frequency summing circuit\u003c\/strong\u003e : bass signals can be summed to provide a \u003cstrong\u003emono sub output\u003c\/strong\u003e, a common configuration in sound reinforcement to enhance impact and simplify subwoofer placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSymmetrical XLR Connectivity for Reliable Integration\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced XLR inputs and outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e integrate easily into a sound rack and contribute to a more robust connection over long cable runs. The 234xs is thus comfortable both in a mobile rig and in fixed installations, maintaining a clear approach: separate, balance, control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
