According to this configuration, it is possible to amplify the amplitude of the input acoustic signal
and drive the connected speaker. Here, in general, a speaker configuration in a system that
transmits and transmits an acoustic signal includes a configuration in which a signal of an entire
frequency band is amplified by a speaker for an entire band, a speaker for low-frequency
amplification in a low frequency band signal , Called a subwoofer. There is a configuration to
add). Further, when a loudspeaker system is configured by the above-described full-band speaker
and subwoofer, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of interference between loudspeaker
loudspeakers and drive the loudspeakers in a band other than the original loudspeaker band of
each loudspeaker. The subwoofer is a signal component of the low frequency band signal
component of the subwoofer loud band component for the purpose of preventing the destruction

division and amplification function is provided internally, it is possible to eliminate complicated
connection and setting between the devices when the sound signal is divided into bands and
amplified. It is possible to prevent low frequency speakers from BTL driving by preventing an
accident that the speakers are broken due to an error in connection and setting between devices.
Further, in the acoustic signal amplifier according to the present invention, the band dividing unit
externally inputs a first acoustic signal and a second acoustic signal as the acoustic signal from
among the first acoustic signals. A first high-pass acoustic signal of a frequency band higher than
a predetermined reference frequency is selectively passed, and a second high-pass acoustic
signal of a frequency band higher than the predetermined reference frequency among the second
sound signals Are selectively passed, and a summed acoustic signal which is a signal obtained by
adding the first acoustic signal and the second acoustic signal is generated, and a frequency band
lower than the predetermined reference frequency among the summed acoustic signals is
generated. And the high-pass acoustic signal is made up of the first high-pass acoustic signal and
the second high-pass acoustic signal. According to this configuration, since the band division and
amplification function corresponding to the stereo sound signal is provided internally, when the
stereo sound signal is divided and banded, complicated connection and setting between the
devices are eliminated. It is possible to BTL drive low frequency speakers by preventing an
accident that the speakers are broken due to an error in connection and setting between devices.
Further, in the acoustic signal amplifier according to the present invention, it is selected whether

output driver or the acoustic signal input from the outside is amplified by the output driver. The
output driver has a configuration for amplifying a signal selected by the selection means and
driving a speaker connected to the outside according to the signal obtained by amplification.

amplification, and therefore, the present invention is applicable to an acoustic signal
amplification system that does not use the internal band division amplification function. Further,
the acoustic signal amplifier according to the present invention has a configuration including a
polarity inverting means for inverting the polarity of the acoustic signal input from the outside.
According to this configuration, it is possible to invert the polarity of the input acoustic signal, so
that it is possible to BTL drive the low frequency speaker by inputting the acoustic signal which
is band-divided by the external device. BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

and amplified, and then amplified by the full band speaker, and the second input terminal 102 is
amplified. A second acoustic signal input through the second output driver 132 is amplified and
then amplified by a full band speaker, and then input through the third input terminal 103. The
acoustic signal is input to the third output driver 133 and amplified, and then amplified by the
full band speaker, and the fourth acoustic signal input through the fourth input terminal 104 is
the fourth output driver 134. The signal is amplified and then amplified by the full band speaker.
As described above, since the acoustic signal amplifier according to the first embodiment of the
present invention has the band division and amplification function inside, when the acoustic
signal is divided into bands and amplified, It is possible to eliminate complicated connections and
settings between devices, and it is possible to prevent an accident in which a speaker is broken
due to an error in connections and settings between devices. In addition, since it can be
collectively set whether or not to execute band division amplification, the present invention is
applicable to an acoustic signal amplification system that does not use the internal band division

amplification function. Further, since the polarity of the input acoustic signal can be reversed, it
is possible to BTL drive the low frequency speaker by inputting the acoustic signal which has
been band-divided by the external device. In the acoustic signal amplifier according to the first
embodiment of the present invention, the first polarity inverting means 105, the first signal
selecting means 106, the second polarity inverting means 107, and the second signal are used. It
is possible to do without having the selection means 108. At this time, the second input terminal
102 outputs the second acoustic signal input from the external device to the monaural addition
unit 113 and the fourth signal selection unit 122, and the fourth input terminal 104 is input
from the external device The fourth acoustic signal is output to the sixth signal selection means
124.
Further, in the acoustic signal amplifier according to the first embodiment of the present
invention, the number of input terminals, output drivers and output terminals is four, but four or
more input terminals, output drivers And an output terminal. As described above, the present
invention can provide an acoustic signal amplifier capable of dividing an acoustic signal into
bands without complicated connection and setting between the apparatuses. It is. BRIEF
