ABSTRACT:
A technique is provided for reducing power consumption of an internally powered console in an audio system through frequency based signal routing. A system employing the technique includes a base unit having an interface for receiving a signal representative of acoustic information. The base unit includes a filter system for splitting the signal into low-frequency and high-frequency component signals. The low-frequency signal is routed to a first audio driver for reproduction. The high-frequency signal is routed to a device that includes a second audio driver. By removing the need to reproduce the low-frequency portion of the acoustic information, the power consumption of the device is reduced.
