The CX2310 continues the tradition of analog stage and installation crossovers designed to optimize multi-way sound distribution with immediate usability. Its approach is simple and effective: ensuring a clean distribution of the spectrum between amplifiers and speakers, while maintaining high audio quality thanks to low-noise op-amps and selected components. In a sound reinforcement-oriented range, it positions itself as a particularly relevant tool for alignment and protection whenever you want to get the best out of a system with subwoofers, tops, or a three-way configuration.
This Behringer crossover is intended for users working with multi-amplified sound systems: bands, service providers, DJs equipped with subs and tops, rehearsal rooms, small stages, places of worship, or fixed installations. In 2-way stereo mode, you clearly separate lows and highs into two bands, improving bass control, vocal clarity, and overall system efficiency. In 3-way mono mode, it becomes a true distribution center for a more elaborate system (lows / mids / highs). In both cases, the mono subwoofer output adds very appreciated flexibility to "lock in" the low end, where aligning crossover frequency and level often makes all the difference in the field.
The CX2310 incorporates Linkwitz-Riley 24 dB/octave filters, a recognized choice in sound reinforcement for achieving coherent summation between bands. The goal is clear: maintain a balanced response around crossover frequencies, with a more controlled transition between speakers, and limit unnecessary overlaps that can blur the mix.
The CX2310 offers an additional subwoofer output with independent frequency and level control, over a specified range of 10 to 235 Hz. This architecture allows adding dedicated sub management to a 2-way stereo setup (which effectively becomes a "2-way stereo + mono sub" logic), or further extending a mono multi-way configuration. Since very low frequencies are perceived as non-directional, the sub output is provided in mono, practical and coherent for most systems.
On site, quick diagnosis is essential. The CX2310 includes mute switches per output to isolate a band instantly, as well as phase inversion switches to immediately correct phase opposition between bands (or check wiring). A switchable 25 Hz low-cut filter on each input helps protect bass speakers from infrasonic and unwanted content, while relieving amplification where it is least efficient.
High-precision potentiometers and stage-oriented layout facilitate repeatable settings from one event to another. Illuminated switches ensure safe use in dark environments, and the unit is designed to integrate naturally into a broadcast rack. Finally, the internal switching power supply 100 to 240 V aims for stable operation and reduced consumption, without sacrificing sonic discretion.
