musikelectronic geithain GmbH RL 944K / RL 944K1
6 Set-up the speakers
In this chapter we inform you how to connect your speakers to mains and your signal source. Ensure
that the mains switch on the backside is in position “OFF”. Only when your speaker is completely
connected (see chapters 6.1, 6.2,
and 6.3) you can take the device into operation by use of the
mains switch.
The speaker can be connected to every common pre-amplifier (U
a
= 1 V ... 5 V; R
i
< 600 Ω).
6.1 Connecting the RL 944K
Connect your signal source with the amplifier through the XLR socket. Check the mains voltage
stated on the backside of the device. If your local mains voltage does not match the specification of
the speaker, please refer to your retailer or direct distribution. When the stated and your local mains
voltage comply connect the mains connector of the speaker to the socket with the included mains
cable.
6.2 Connecting the RL 944K1
The amplifier of the RL 944K1 is housed in a separate enclosure. Every amplifier is paired to exactly
one speaker by the same serial number. Ensure installation in pairs.
Ensure sufficient convection at the heatsink. Therefore the amplifier should be used standing upright.
For a horizontal installation we recommend to use the RL-Amplifier / RL-Amplifier 2.
To connect the Speaker to the amplifier use only the Speakon cable that is part of the delivery
contents!
Ensure that the latch snaps audibly in place in the sockets of the speaker and the amplifier by turning
the plug clockwise. Connect your signal source with the amplifier through the XLR socket.
To release the connector cable from the speaker and the amplifier , slide the latch on top of the
connector back and turn the connector anticlockwise.
Before start-up check the mains voltage state on the backside of the amplifier. If your local mains
voltage does not match the specification of the device
, please refer to your retailer or direct
distribution. When the stated and your local mains voltage comply connect the mains connector of
the amplifier to the socket with the included mains cable.
