The CX2310 stereo 2-way/mono 3-way
crossover provides amazing-accurate
audio frequency separation, thanks to
its state-of-the-art circuitry, superior-
grade components, ultra low-noise op
amps and balanced I/O connectivity.
Additionally, the CX2310 features an
independently-adjustable Subwoofer
Output, e ectively providing an
extra low-frequency band a control
range from 10 - 235 Hz. By using
1% metal lm resistors, along with other extremely tight-tolerance
components, theCX2310 is able to guarantee surgically-precise frequency
selection with incredibly-low thermal noise. Put simply, the easy-to-use
SUPER-XPROCX2310 is one of the best-sounding crossovers in its class!
Sound Quality
When a sound system is properly tuned,
itbecomes powerful, balanced and e cient.
Bass content is punchy and tight, with vocals
and instruments that are rich, crisp and well
de ned. The CX2310 crossover’s accurate
signal processing protects critical loudspeaker
components and improves overall system
e ciency. All Input and Output connections
are balanced/unbalanced XLR and feature
25Hz Low Cut lters for low-frequency driver
protection – plus Mute and Phase Invert
switches, making troubleshooting even a
large system – virtually e ortless!

Crossover with Subwoofer Output
What’s a Crossover?
Chances are if you’re reading this, you already know what a crossover is – and you know that you need
one. But if you are new to multi-way PA systems, here's a brief overview. Loudspeakers (which we
call transducers) convert electrical signals into sound waves. And no matter how well a transducer is
designed or made, it simply cannot reproduce the entire audio spectrum all by itself. Low-frequency
sounds tend to push a transducer to the maximum, making it impossible for that same transducer to
reproduce the treble content with the sound quality it deserves. (Try singing high falsetto next time
you’re bench-pressing your limit!)
That's why high-quality sound systems use multiple speakers (woofers and tweeters) to spread out
the work. While the woofer (usually the larger transducer) does all the heavy lifting, the tweeter
can easily handle the high-frequency content. Three and four-way systems distribute the work even
more, allowing the individual transducers to reproduce the frequency range for which they were
designed. It is the crossover’s function to divide these tasks between the various ampli ers and
transducers.
Divide and Conquer
The CX2310 provides two modes of operation: 2-way stereo, for Left and Right Lows (woofers) and
Highs (tweeters); and 3-way mono, for Lows, Mids and Highs. In either mode, there is an additional
output provided for a mono Subwoofer, with its own Frequency and Level controls. This extra
feature e ectively turns the CX2310 into a stereo 2-way + mono 1-way, or a mono 4-way frequency
crossover. The Subwoofer Output is presented in mono, since people perceive extremely-low bass
frequencies as being omnidirectional. For your convenience, the CX2310’s front panel features an
elegant and easy-to-read LED matrix, so you can see at a glance which operating mode has been
selected – and which controls are currently active.
