XLR Input (+4 dBu Sensitivity)
The XLR input is for use with professional audio devices like mixers, interfaces, and
controllers. Depending on your device, it will either use XLR or ¼” TRS outputs,
and either can be used with this speaker. However, do not connect both XLR and
TRS to the same speaker at the same time.
Inputs and Controls
Dip Switch Quick Reference Guide
The quick reference guide on the back of
the speaker can help you set the dip
switches to the appropriate positions for your application without needing to con-
sult this manual.
Dip Switches
The dip switches control Boundary EQ, HF and LF Trim, and power to the RCA in-
put. A full explanation of the operation of the dip switches can be found on page
11.
RCA Input (-10 dBV Sensitivity)
The RCA input is for use with consumer devices like record players, laptops, smart
phones, and media players. Commonly, the playback device will either have an
RCA or a 3.5mm (Aux) output. Cables from either of these outputs to RCA are easy
to find.
By default, the RCA input on the speaker is OFF. This is to prevent interference
when that input is not being used. When connecting to the RCA input, enable it
by moving switch #8 on the dip switches UP to the ON position. If the RCA input is
no longer being used, be sure to move switch #8 back DOWN to the OFF position.
TRS Input (+4 dBu Sensitivity)
The TRS input is for use with professional audio devices like mixers, interfaces, and
controllers. Depending on your device, it will either use XLR or ¼” TRS outputs,
and either can be used with this speaker. However, do not connect both XLR and
TRS to the same speaker at the same time.
Unbalanced, TS 1/4-inch cables may also be used, although these are far more sus
-
ceptible to noise.
