SRM | V-Class High-Performance Powered Loudspeaker Series

Menu Screen

The menu screen displays six icons. Like the  

mixer screen, just rotate the speaker control knob  

until the icon of the parameter you want to change  

is illuminated. Then push the knob to enter that icon’s 

screen.

The six icon selectors are as follows:
• Mixer
• Speaker Mode
• Sub
• Delay
• Bluetooth
• Configuration
We’ll go through each one, starting with mixer  

at the top left.

Mixer

This is the easiest to describe since we just went 

through the mixer screen on the last two pages!  

To recap, though, the mixer screen is where  

to set levels and channel EQ.

Speaker Mode

Speaker mode allows you to change  

the loudspeaker’s speaker voicing to tailor  

it to best suit your particular application.

Once speaker mode is illuminated push in  

the speaker control knob to enter and update.

The view will look somewhat similar to this:

There are five speaker modes, plus an additional 

choice of inside or outside use. That is essentially TEN 

speaker voicing modes to choose from! Let’s check 

them out:

• Flat – No question about this speaker mode;  

it’s flat! This plug-and-play mode is perfect  

for singer-songwriters and listening to mastered music.

• Live – This mode features a low frequency  

roll-off to get rid of unwanted thumps and adds  

boost and sparkle to mid-range and high frequencies.

• Speech – This mode features a significant low   

frequency roll-off to get rid of unwanted thumps.    

It also adds boost and sparkle to mid-range and high  

frequencies, critical for speech applications. Lastly,  

a compressor has been added to help control spoken 

audio levels. This plug-and-play mode is perfect for 

larger venue applications where speech is the primary 

audio source in need of clear and precise intelligibility.

• Club – This mode is full range, but focuses  

on increased bass and brilliant high frequencies.    

This is the place to start for most DJ / music  

 

playback applications.

• Monitor – Monitor mode was designed primarily to 

remove unwanted low frequency buildup while also 

improving mid-range articulation for the artist(s).

This mode should only be engaged when  

the speaker is in its monitor orientation  

and coupled with a stage or other hardwood 

floor... if not, the speaker won’t sound right.

About that inside / outside selection... in a sentence, 

choose whether you are using the loudspeaker inside  

or outside. The speaker’s voicing is altered to the  

environment. That’s all you need to know, but we’re  

going to give you more!

When speakers are outside, a combination of low  

and high frequencies don’t build up the way they  

do inside. SRM | V-Class corrects for that by  

boosting the frequency ranges that become deficient  

so the speaker sounds the same outside as when  

it’s inside. You make the selection, we’ll do the rest!

Simply rotate the speaker control knob until  

the speaker mode you desire is illuminated, then  

push to select it. As seen above, we selected Live Inside.
