Protective DSP Settings
The MSE-159 and MSE-156 require no DSP program to function correctly. However, excessive low frequency
information will cause the LF drive unit’s excursion to increase, which can result in damage to your loudspeaker.
The higher you raise the high pass filter on an MSE-159, the more headroom and overall sound pressure level
output there is available. For most medium-to-high level applications, we would recommend a minimum of a 50Hz
high pass filter with a 24dB/octave slope to sufficiently protect the loudspeaker. For higher SPL applications, we
would recommend raising this filter – we would stress that the higher the filter, the safer the loudspeaker will be.
If you are in any doubt over suitable settings for your MSE-159, please don’t hesitate to contact EM Acoustics or
your local dealer for support and advice.
