It is common to run subwoofers in mono as most low frequencies have very little stereo content, however in some circumstances
you may wish to run subwoofers in stereo using this system. The configuration uses two amplifiers allowing a good match of
amplifier to the power capability of the speakers and in particular using a higher power amplifier for the subs to deliver the
maximum output capability.
There are left and right connections from the mixer to the input of the DX0.5. Output Channels 1 and 3 on the DX0.5 connect to
inputs A and B on the amplifier for the full range cabinet using a pair of short XLR cables. Another pair of XLR cables are connected
from output channels 2 & 4 on the DX0.5 to inputs A and B on the subwoofer amplifier.
Speakon NL2 or NL4 cables go from the first amplifier output channels A & B to the left and right full range speakers, and from
the subwoofer amplifier outputs A & B to the Subwoofer inputs.
You will also need to choose the best match of amplifier for the speakers, see the chapter on amplifier selection.
