I can not seem to find info anywhere on whether the sub has a crossover integrated or not? Some sites say it has a 100hz highpass while others say NA. Is the link out full range of highpassed?

Hello, Yes! there is an internal 100hz Xover in the cab, Hope that helps, 8thstreet Music

I bought a 90 hz low pass filter and just ran the positive and negative through the filter and hooked it up to the positive and negative of the sub. It filters out all of the mids and highs and sounds great. Then I just hooked up my other speakers to the remaining channels on the amp. Hope this helps

I have a super high end mirage sub that works great off it. You may have a grounding issue if there's a hum or a connection problem when you get a humming sound.

One set is for normal setups and the second is for "Bi-amping". This is where you have a separate power source (amplifier) for low-end and another power source (amplifier) for the mid-range and high-end frequencies. The crossover is the frequency in the music spectrum where one amp's duty ends and the other's begins. The X-over (cross-over) for this set of speakers is passive and not active. In the latter setup, you can change the frequency where a source amp stops and the other begins. All of this is supposed to deliver a 'PURER' sound, more pristine. Some single amps deliver great bass, but have trouble with mid and high-end freqs. (they clip). Other amps are great for mid and high freqs. It is nothing more than division of labor. Audio purists will have active electronic x-overs and separate amps for low, mid, and high range freqs. They also have a lot of money to burn.

Are you trying to use this as an input to the Sub, or an output from the sub to the PA?I am using a RCA to 3.5 mm cable as input from another source to the sub, and then the sub's low level output to monitors, and that works fine. All of those are low level, though. If you are inputting TO the sub from the PA, i would think it would have to be non amplified signal or damage could occur. I'm not sure if the stereo link feature on that PA is low level or not.

Short answer is yes. The signal goes out of both the high and low outputs together. I tried it. It worked but I realized to get enough volume to the sub to make it sound good, you were distorting the power to the speakers. They were also really drowned out by the sub. My recommendation and what I ended up doing was to get a 4 channel amp, bridging two channels for the sub and using the other two channels for the speakers. With the amp crossovers, you can really dial in the sound and get the best bang out is the sub. Good luck.

Based on the most technical of measurement tools, ie. SPL meter on my phone and frequency stepper on YouTube, I estimate right on 50Hz. Possibly as low as 45Hz but unlikely. I'll get back to you with a better idea in a few weeks when the sub arrives. Edit: after a long wait the sub arrived. It seems the optimum crossover for a sub is roughly 50hz. If you are looking for the crossover between the 8" subs and the horn tweeters then the answer is 2000hz.

The soundscape has a fixed crossover on its LFE output. Connect the sub to this and turn off the crossover on the back of the sub. I added a sub also - it helps for loud rumbly effects.

No the crossover is seperate, but my 4 channel amp has a crossover so I just tuned them with that. To be honest if your amp has 1 buying 1 is a waste of money, and there very very loud, mean as hell haha

There are no "points" for the frequency crossover. I concluded from the information available that the crossover was a linear function between 20 - 20K hertz. My installation drives a set of Sony tweeters with an obvious separation of the higher frequencies but I have no equipment to measure the frequency response.

The cord on this sub is 125V~ and it supports 60-120Hz. Just went downstairs to check for you. Just did my good deed of the day. Hope this helped!

I would.think so seeing as it has a built.in crossover. But i would talk to someone from best buy, or an audio store.to make sure before.purchasing. I only have a sub, and my factory speaker hooked up thru this amp. So I am only taking up two channels. I will say, it's a beast of an amp, and if it does what you are looking for, its worth every penny. Hope I have been of some help

Its a good box but I wouldn't use it on that sub. It's tuned too high. 39hz for the port!

I had the same question when i was hooking up my own system. I read on multiple audio forums that while both methods work, by using a y adapter and feeding the same signal into both ports you will gain about 3 decibels from the sub which is significant. Since I found the same conclusion from multiple sources I went ahead and got the adapter.

The crossover is low pass, so it would not affect the low end. This is more to do with the characteristics of the woofer.

Even though your mains go down to 48 hz, the general consensus of audiophiles is to set your cross over around 125 hz. This allows your mains to focus on the higher hz, making them more efficient (it takes much more power for low hz) and allowing the sub to do what it does best. YMMV

If the sub or your head doesn't specify a crossover built in them then you should use a crossover. I'd suggest an inline crossover like this http://www.amazon.com/FMOD-Inline-Crossover-Pair-Pass/dp/B00EZXWWHW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1392864302&sr;=8-3&keywords;=inline+crossover
