Design Philosophy A studio monitor is really a tool used to aurally “measure” the changes in an audio path. Ask any pro or semi-pro recordist what they think makes a great studio moni- tor and you’ll get basically the same answers: “Accuracy , transparency , “flat response”, and “the truth”.
Systems Control SYSTEM VOLUME The input sensitivity is adjusted (counterclockwise reduces sensitivity) with the rear panel mounted System Gain control. Adjustment range is from - 30dB to +6dB. Factory preset gain is +6dB, which should suffice for most conditions.
Installing Y our Monitors The close-field monitor , by definition, reduces room interaction. This can be com- pared to the conventional stereo configuration or the large monitor arrangement in a recording studio where sounds emanating from the monitor or reflecting off ceil- ings, walls, and floors greatly affect the sound quality .
Hookup with Active Speakers If you are using active (powered) speakers, simply use an XLR 1/4” Phono or RCA to connect the output of the subwoofer directly to the input of the speaker .
Bass Management Theory). Note from the diagram that for professional use a sep- arate 6- channel level control box is required between the mix-down deck and the monitor speakers. This is because few small format mixing consoles have provi- sions to switch and level-manage a 6-channel audio signal.
Setting Subwoofer Levels Once the subwoofer is in position, its level needs to be matched with the near-field speakers. For stereo systems, the process is straightforward.
T roubleshooting Problem: If there is no power , check to see if... • The power cord is plugged into both the IEC socket on the rear panel of the unit and into the AC mains • The AC mains voltage is matched to the operating voltage requirements (See Changing V oltage in the Connecting the System section on page 3).
