Page 22: Stereo Setup With A Powered Subwoofer
STEREO SETUP WITH A POWERED SUBWOOFER The Leon OTO MCA 200 can be set up to drive a subwoofer in many different configurations. If you are using a powered subwoofer, you can use the internal 80Hz crossover to pass bass below 80Hz to the subwoofer. This effectively takes strain off of your main speakers if they cannot handle or reproduce the low frequencies, and increases the overall fidelity of the system. -
