Tri-mode
With the KAC-526, a subwoofer can be added easily to the speaker system by marking use of the
properties of coils and capacitors. This mode of operation is caliedTrl-mode.

Frequency
• Coil (U; Passes low frequencies and blocks high frequencies. (Low pass)
• Capacitor (C): Passes high frequencies and blocks low frequencies; (High pass)
Your coil and capacitor
Use the.following formula to identify the coil and capacitor you need in your system.
„ 159000 , „

fc=Cut of Frequency (Hz)
^ _159x R ,
R=Speaker impedance (£

)
Example:
When it is required to set a crossover frequency of 120 Hz using speakers with an
impedance of 4 ohms.
...
Prepare commercialiy-avaiiable coil and capacitor with the closest ratings to the results calculated
from the formula above. The capacitor rating should be as close as possible to 331.25 (pF) and the
coil rating should be as close as possible to 5.3 (mH).
\System example
To use the Tri-mode configuration, set the OPERATION switch to the STEREO position.

If you wish to bridge-connect a speaker, such as a subwoofer, as shown above, the speaker
impedance must be no less than 4 ohms.
Connecting a speaker with an impedance lower than 4 ohms may damage the unit.
