One simple use for these types of passive filters is in audio amplifier applications or circuits such as in loudspeaker crossover filters or pre-amplifier tone controls.

The cut-off frequency or ƒc point in a simple RC passive filter can be accurately controlled using just a single resistor in series with a non-polarized capacitor, and depending upon which way around they are connected, we have seen that either a Low Pass or a High Pass filter is obtained. The Passive Band Pass Filter can be used to isolate or filter out certain frequencies that lie within a particular band or range of frequencies.
