Interconnect cables
Using high-quality interconnect cables will ensure that you get the best sound quality and
maximum reliability from your
airmotiv
™ powered monitors. It is especially important to select
good-quality well-shielded cables if you are using unbalanced cables, or very long cables, or have
an especially noisy environment. (We do not, however, recommend or endorse fancy “boutique”
audiophile cables.)
Emotiva Audio offers both balanced and unbalanced cables that combine solid engineering,
premium build quality, excellent performance, and reasonable cost.
If you choose to use third-party cables, avoid those that have excessively thin and flexible
insulation or that fail to provide full-coverage shielding. Cables with insufficient mechanical
integrity may fail prematurely, and cables with poor shielding will be more subject to hum and
noise.
Mounting brackets
Emotiva Professional offers optional brackets especially designed to mount your
airmotiv 4s
monitors securely and conveniently. See our website for details.
Control Freak
If your source device lacks a variable level output, or uses a low quality digital volume control, you
may consider using a passive volume control between your source and your
airmotiv
™ powered
monitors. The Emotiva Pro Control Freak™ is a high-quality passive volume control which connects
between your source component and powered monitors, and provides a large, easy to adjust,
volume control knob which can be located wherever it is most convenient. See our website for
details.
