XBD SYSTEMS
By adding an additional PMC sub unit, the PMC6, PMC6-2, and PMC8-2 can
be easily reconfigured as twin-cabinet XBD monitor systems. This popular
and flexible format combines a full-range speaker and subwoofer to form a
perfectly integrated system with huge benefits.
In the case of the PMC6, the speaker becomes a three-way design crossing-
over between the nearfield cabinet and subwoofer at 125Hz. The bass
response of the resulting XBD monitor system extends down to 25Hz, giving
genuine full-range midfield monitor performance in a compact form.
Since the mid-bass driver no longer handles the lowest bass frequencies,
distortion is further reduced and the mid-range frequencies gain extra
clarity, lending vocals still greater realism and depth.
Configuring a PMC6-2 or PMC8-2 as an XBD system reinforces the bass
output of the main speaker's LF drivers, greatly increasing headroom all the
way down to 25Hz, creating a system with a sense of effortless capability.
PMC6 XBD: PMC6 + PMC8 SUB
PMC6-2 XBD: PMC6-2 + PMC8-2 SUB
PMC8-2 XBD: PMC8-2 + PMC8-2 SUB
NB: When a subwoofer is set to XBD Mode ON, its bass-management filter
behaves as if it were a full-range speaker. Therefore, the low-pass filter that
is usually employed in a subwoofer is automatically converted into a high-
pass filter, mirroring the behaviour of the full-range speaker with which it is
paired.
