3 LOUDSPEAKER CONFIGURATIONS Point source In this configuration, the 5XT system operates over the nominal frequency range of the enclosure. The 5XT enclosure is driven by the LA4 or LA8 amplified controller with a factory preset. Standalone 5XT Enclosure [PRESET]... -
Page 8: Point Source With Low-Frequency Element
In this configuration, the frequency range of the 5XT system is extended in the low end. Each enclosure type is driven by the LA4 or LA8 amplified controller with factory presets. The 5XT enclosure is driven with the same preset as in point source configuration. The SB15m subwoofer is driven with a preset featuring an upper frequency limit at 100 Hz, for an optimal acoustic coupling with the enclosure. -
Page 9: Loudspeaker Connection
The 5XT is a 2-way passive enclosure equipped with two 4-point SpeakON connectors wired in parallel and 2 screw terminals. The IN connector allows receiving the audio signals. The LINK connector allows routing them to another 5XT enclosure in parallel. Each screw terminal acts as IN and LINK. -
