QUICK START
If you already have experience with studio monitors, the Quick Start guide
ought to be more than enough to get you started.
For unexperienced users we recommend reading the whole user‘s manual
in order to prevent any misuse.
2.1.
First Steps
Check the package components (loudspeaker, user‘s manual, power cord,
rubber feet).
Check the voltage setting (see “3.15. Mains Voltage Selector” on page 15).
Check the setting of the DIP Switches (variable).
2.2.
Speaker Connection
Connect one of the monitor inputs on the rear side (RCA or XLR) to the line
output of a playback source, for instance, an audio interface. The output
level should be as low as possible.
2.3.
Powering On
Engage the Power switch on the rear side of the loudspeaker to turn it on
or off.
The LEDs around the Volume control on the front panel will light up
clockwise. If the LED on the right end is dimly lit, this indicates that the
loudspeaker is in Standby mode. Press the Volume control to turn the
loudspeaker on. If you turn the Volume control counter clockwise until the
LED on the left end lights up dimly the loudspeaker will be muted.
Increase the output level on the source device until the LED ring starts to
blink, then reduce the output level a bit. The maximum operating level for
the input (i.e. the analog to digital converter) is now set optimally. To set
the desired listening volume use the Volume control on the loudspeaker.
The LED ring indicates the volume setting. If the LED ring starts to blink,
reduce the output level on the signal source.
