OPERATING THE K50
K50 Control Panel
The K50 rear control panels are where you will make your connections for both AC power and audio signals. The
rear panel also contains the controls to make adjustments to the overall volume. The following section details the
rear panel controls and connections.
1. Powering the K50
Since the K50 are active studio monitors with an on-board power amplifier and electronic crossover, it is
necessary to connect the unit to an AC power supply. Make sure that the main Power switch is set to the OFF
position and connect the supplied IEC power cable into the AC inlet.
2. Things that go Hum!
When running power cables, be careful not to run the AC power cords or AC extension cords in parallel to your
input cables. This will help reduce any AC hum that can be picked up. If your have to cross an AC line with an
audio line, try to cross them at a 90 degree angle for the least amount of induced hum. Using the K50 balanced
input connectors will greatly protect against the induced hum thanks to the common mode rejection (the induced
hum is phase canceled) that it's balanced input circuit provides.
3. Power Switch
The POWER switch is used to turn on the K50 active electronics. When set to the ON position, the LED will
illuminate red, indicating the K50 is powered up and ready for operation.
4. AC Inlet
Connect the supplied IEC power cable here.
5. Volume Control
The volume control is used to adjust the overall output level of the K50 .When operating the unit for the fi rst time,
start with the volume control set all the way off. Slowly raise the Volume control to reach a comfortable listening
level.
6. The Ins and The Outs
The K50 features a full complement of input connectors providing easy installation with a variety of audio devices
like recording consoles, hard disk recorders,CD players and computer sound cards, to name a few. The following
section details the K50 input connectors. In addition, there is a detailed cable-wiring diagram on page 12.
7. 1/4-Inch Audio Phono Input
A balanced TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) 1/4-inch phono plug is used to connect balanced or unbalanced line level
signals.
8. RCA Audio Input
The RCA input accepts unbalanced signals used to connect signals from unbalanced –10dBV devices.
