2.3.1. Controller settings

For acoustic adjustment the functions CUT, HFA and CPL can be

selected.

CUT circuit
Set to CUT, the cabinet low frequency level is reduced. The

cabinets are now configured for use with actively driven d&b

subwoofers.

HFA circuit
In HFA mode (High Frequency Attenuation), the HF response of the

system is rolled off. HFA provides a natural, balanced frequency

response when a unit is placed close to listeners in near field or

delay use.

High Frequency Attenuation begins gradually at 1 kHz, dropping

by approximately 3 dB at 10 kHz. This roll off mimics the decline

in frequency response experienced when listening to a system from

a distance in a typically reverberant room or auditorium.

CPL circuit
The CPL (Coupling) circuit compensates for different acoustic

properties of the venue. CPL begins gradually around 1 kHz, with

the maximum attenuation below 250 Hz. To achieve a balanced

frequency response, the CPL circuit can be set to dB attenuation

values between 0 and –9.

Positive CPL values create an adjustable low frequency boost (0 to

+5 dB) and can be set when the system is used in full range mode

without subwoofers.
