Hi, I have a Driverack PX and a pair of RCF Art525A's. How can I configure the Driverack PX with these speakers, as I've noticed there are no presets for these speakers in the Driverack PX. Thanks in advance. All help is greatly appreciated.

    Presets are just starting points...pick any configuration that fits, like \"Stereo Mains\" stereo powered full range speakers. Then the only thing you need to do is set the hipass...press the setup button and find the low frequency cutoff of the speakers and set the hipass there..

    You also need to read the \"Read me first before posting\" section... lots of goodies there...

    The answer is in the first line of your specs...the frequency response of the RCF's is 45-20khz...therefore the 3db down point (might even be the 10 db down point) is 45 hz, and that is where I would put a BW (butterworth) 18 filter.

    If you want to lrearn why, or what the other features are, and how to best use the you need to read the RMF section as I said...
