SYSTEM PLANNING Before wiring up an audio system that may not achieve the sound quality you want, be sure to choose a system concept Full-Range Full-Range that fits your listening requirements. Basic systems, a receiver with internal 4x20 watts and 4 coax speakers, are adequate for many listeners. But, when you want to really “feel” the music, you will need some kind of subwoofer amplifier/speaker combination. Although many people might jump into an “add-on” amplifier to power to rear coaxial

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION #1 Full-Range High-Pass Full-Range High-Pass Subwoofer 5 Channel Combo (2ch HP + 3ch passive Multi-Mode) The multi-mode system is a “poor-man’s” satellite/subwoofer system. This amplifier is able to drive speakers in stereo mode and at the same time drive low frequencies to a dedicated subwoofer speaker. By inserting inductors (coils) and capacitors, the result is an inexpensive solution to generating a ‘5' channel system with a 4 channel amplifier. Using passive component

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION #3 Full-Range Full-Range Subwoofer Full-Range Full-Range 3 Channel Combo (2ch HP + 1ch Subwoofer) Like the four channel systems as shown above, the benefits, and performance trade-offs are similar. But, this system configuration offers an additional advantage with the internal high-pass crossover. This crossover reduces the bass to the front speakers thus protecting them under heavy low frequency loads. A typical system with larger drivers in the back is then able to be
