I think that's listed under the "Professional" range of Altec Lansing speakers.. almost similar-specced with FX6021 but without that much power... doh.gif

nope... it's on a general basis..

usually the 50-300Hz frequencies are reproduced by the sub-woofer unit.. 500Hz - 3kHz ranges are usually reproduced by mid-range drivers.. and 10k-20+kHz frequencies are reproduced by tweeters.. thus adjusting these respective bands on the EQ will affect the frequency response of the speakers..

Actually like Ati Bob said, can be used on all model...
Becos you complained about bass being overpowered, thus I recommend that you turn it up a little bit more. Turning up even more like to maximum level is not recommended, but it can be done. Just scare it will haf damaging effect if used for long time (becos when set too high n being played loud, once it cross the border of what it can achieve, all it does is burrrp,burrrp...). I haf used several AL model like ACS45.1, ACS 48, and MX5021. If you set it to around half or less, it plays nice if you play loud but when you play it loud, the sub already capped by the knob thus it's thumping only increased to a level the knob permits.

Come to think of it, Altec should have used a larger bass driver since there's still amp power to drive larger speakers. laugh.gif
