Abstract
A method for reducing gain for audio amplification by an audio system having a tweeter channel, an optional midrange channel, and a woofer channel. Gain of the woofer channel is reduced simultaneously with reducing gain of the tweeter channel, both responsive to detecting the same instance of overloading (overdriving) the woofer channel. Other aspects are also described and claimed.
