Stereo Tri-Amp operation is one of the most popular applications. The stereo input signals (In A+B) are split up into three frequency bands per stereo side and then
reproduced using the 6 outputs. This ensures the best possible use of your 3-way sound reinforcement system, since the individual drivers reproduce only those
frequency ranges for which they are ideally suited. Intermodulation distortion is thus eff ectively minimized.

Fig. 6.2: Stereo 2-way operation plus subwoofer
Each driver (speaker diaphragm) of the two 2-way speaker cabinets is controlled separately to ensure optimum reproduction of treble and mid-range frequencies.
The bass is reproduced by a mono subwoofer, which is driven by a power amp in mono-bridged mode. The sub-woofer receives its signal from the DCX's "SUM" input,
which is limited to bass frequencies and is the sum of mix signals In A+B. The unused input C and output 6 could be used for a mono delay line, for example.
