Operating the Rubicon R10s
11
The Ins and The Outs
The R10s features both balanced and
unbalanced line level inputs and outputs
so that connection with passive or active
satellites is easy. It is recommended that
you use the balanced line inputs and out-
puts to interface the R10s with active mon-
itors like the Rubicon 5a or 6a’s. See page
16 for a detailed cable wiring diagram.
UNBALANCED INPUTS
Unbalanced connections can be made
using the female RCA connectors.
Note: In order to get the lowest amount of
induced noise and hum, use the Balanced
connectors whenever possible.
BALANCED INPUTS
If you want to connect your mixer using
balanced line level signals, use the female
XLR connectors.
UNBALANCED OUTPUTS
These female RCA connectors send unbal-
anced line level signals to powered satellite
speakers or an amplifier connected to pas-
sive satellites.
BALANCED OUTPUTS
Male XLR connectors that send the balanced line
level signals to powered satellite speakers or an
amplifier connected to passive satellites.
SUB BYPASS JACK
The Sub Bypass jack provides a switch closure
to activate R10s’s internal mute circuit. By using
a standard footswitch that you can buy at your
local music store or by making a cable with a
switch, or even by wiring a switch permanently
in the mix area, the R10s can be easily turned on
and off.
AC INLET
Connect the supplied IEC power cable here. Be
sure that the power switch is in the OFF position
when connecting the AC cord.
