Description
The DBX 223xs Stereo 2-Way/Mono 3-Way Crossover is engineered to satisfy the demands of both studio and live sound applications. Capable of either 2-way stereo or 3-way mono operation, the 223xs utilizes 24dB/octave Linkwitz-Riley filters to give you the steep crossover bands you demand. Each output features an independent level control and phase inversion switch, as well as a 40Hz low-cut filter. For use with a subwoofer, the 223xs also includes a low-frequency output summing option.
Unparalleled Versatility and Control
Whether you need a simple 2-way stereo crossover or a more complex 3-way mono setup, the 223xs delivers. Its fully versatile design makes it ideal for any professional live sound rig. Precision 24dB/octave Linkwitz-Riley filters provide an ultra-steep slope for superior driver integration. Individual output level controls allow you to perfectly match levels, while phase inversion switches enable quick polarity correction. A 40Hz low-cut filter on each output helps eliminate unwanted low-end rumble. For subwoofer use, the 223xs allows you to sum the low frequency outputs, sending a mono signal to your subs.
Roadworthy and Reliable
Like all DBX products, the 223xs is built to rigorous standards, ensuring years of flawless performance. Its all-steel chassis can stand up to the demands of life on the road. Gold-plated XLR inputs and outputs provide optimum connectivity, while ensuring a high level of RF immunity. With a legacy of over 40 years designing cutting-edge signal processors, DBX is the industry leader in crossover technology. The 223xs upholds this standard, delivering the pristine audio quality, versatility and reliability DBX is known for.
Simple Setup and Operation
Despite its advanced functionality, the 223xs is designed to be fast and intuitive to set up and operate. Its front panel features clearly-labeled, click-stop potentiometers that provide a familiar analog feel, allowing quick and precise control over all parameters. Input gain controls with 12dB of range facilitate easy level matching with other equipment. With simple rear-panel XLR inputs and outputs, the 223xs can be seamlessly integrated into any professional sound system.
