"HIGH-PASS" mode

7.3.1

Description

The "HIGH-PASS" mode features a 60 Hz high-pass filter for the low section combined with optimized low frequency
shelving equalization allowing for perfect coupling with the L-ACOUSTICS
The combined system operating range is lowered down to 32 Hz or 25 Hz, respectively, for applications requiring an
extended sub-low frequency response.
The choice of the subwoofer model and KUDO
overall tonal balance. For most applications the recommended ratios are 3 KUDO
applications requiring an increased energy in the sub-low frequency range the recommended ratios become
®
2 KUDO for 2 SB118 or 1 SB28.
The "HIGH-PASS" mode can also be suitable in standalone applications without subwoofers that do not require a
maximum low-end frequency extension.
7.3.2 Connecting the KUDO

The first KUDO enclosure is connected to the CA-COM
two additional cabinets can be grouped in parallel with the first one. Therefore a single LA8 amplified controller can

be avoided when the power requirements are extreme and continuous over a long period.
IMPORTANT
Note: The system resources are optimized when the line source contains a multiple of 3 KUDO
general rule if the array does not contain a multiple of 3 KUDO
smaller load should power enclosures dedicated to long throw application (typically located on top of the array) as the
acoustic signal should be reinforced in the HF domain.
