The advantage of full range, 20 to 20,000 Hz, damping is that it improves the definition and resolution of the sound output throughout the audible frequency range.

SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
Separate subwoofer output with a 90 Hz low pass filter is especially convenient with sub/satellite speaker systems.

Allows selection of either a first set of speakers or a second -- or both.
