Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, the tweeter is a standard component and can be replaced by a qualified technician, although it's unlikely to fail under normal use.
The low-cut filter is useful for reducing unwanted low-frequency rumble from the stage, resulting in a cleaner, more focused sound, particularly in environments with feedback issues.
Absolutely; bi-amping allows for more precise control over the low and high frequencies independently, facilitating a more tailored and refined EQ profile.
