DRPA with 2 speakers?

Sevarin

Hi folks,

I looked through the FAQ section but couldn't find an answer to this.
Can I put the DRPA to use with only 2 speakers?

Dra

Yes, if you just answer the questions in the wizard, you'll tell it that you are running passive without subs and it will set up a 2 x 2 (stereo in / fullrange stereo out filter). Set you Hi-Pass at the -3db point of the speaker @BW18 and you good to go.

Certainly, works great, Its technically called a bandpass filter, or filter where you use the High pass filter to determine low frequency cutoff. and if you want to you can set up a low pass filter as well...

thank you folks. Is it correct, that I need to use the 2 \"High\" Outputs in the back for this scenario?

Yes, there are other posiblities, but is a little more complicated.

Thank you again. I will do some more read up about this unit and then go ahead and install it.

Ok, I'm back. I tried to use the Wizard a couple of times, but all I end up with is 2x4, not 2x2.

The settings/steps I take are as following:
1. System Setup
2. Input Setup: Stereo
3. Graphic EQ Setup: Stereo Linked
4. Main Speaker: Custom Passive
5. Sub Speakers: None
6: High Amplifier: QSC PLX3602
7: Low Amplifier: QSC PLX3604

Can someone tell me, what I'm doing wrong?

If I understood the answers before correctly, I need to end up in 2x2 Full Range. But I end up in 2x4.

Sevarin

Hm, never mind. This is really weird. I turned the unit off and back on and now it's working. I have no idea, what that was....

Dra

Hum.

Create a new preset and see if if does OK.

PS - You can use a 2x4 set-up by only using the Hi ouputs. You would set the Hi side of the x-over just like the filter for the 2x2.
