Overview
The following section introduces you to the different components on your speaker.
Connecting Speakers
Your speaker features a combination XLR/TRS balanced analog input connector and an RCA unbalanced analog input connector
for connecting a wide variety of analog audio input devices.
Speaker Components
Combination XLR/TRS balanced analog input connector
Balance (BAL)/Unbalance (UNBAL) switch
Select either balanced (XLR or TRS) or unbalanced (RCA) analog
inputs with this switch.
RCA unbalanced analog input connector
Input sensitivity control knob
Adjusts the input sensitivity of your speaker.
Attenuation switches
• Adjust the bass roll off with the LF (Low Frequency) switch
• Adjust the treble tilt with the HF (High Frequency) switch
• By default, both switches are set to zero.
Power socket
• Disconnect the power adapter cable from the power socket if you
do not intend to use your speaker for several days
• Make sure that the voltage rating of your speaker matches the
voltage standard of your country.
ON/OFF switch
Power LED
• Lights up in blue when your speaker is turned on
• Lights up in red when the overload protection circuitry engages.
• Before connecting your speaker, make sure that the Input sensitivity control knob
is turned fully counterclockwise.
• Do not connect more than one audio input device to your speakers at any one time as this will cause the mixing of input signals
and result in unwanted noise.
You may hear a thump from your speaker when you turn it on and off. Make sure that your speaker is the last device to be turned
on and the first device to be turned off in your audio set up to prevent this from occuring.
