Installation 

For  optimal  performance  of  the  BX8a,  please  read  the  following  thoroughly  and  carefully  prior  to 
installation. 

Precautions 

Handling: 

Please do not touch the speaker cones. The BX8a set is packaged in the box tightly, so your 

attention is required when taking the monitors out of the box. To avoid possible damage to the speaker 
units, hold both sides of the monitor in order to pull it out of the box. The speaker cones should not be 
touched in order to avoid damage even after they are out of the box. 

Correct Power Operation: 

Since the BX8a contains its own amplifier, it must be connected to a power 

outlet  using  the  detachable  AC  cable  provided.  Before  connecting  power,  please  make  sure  that  the 
Voltage-Select Switch located on the speaker’s rear panel is set to the appropriate position, as described 
in the rear-panel features list appearing earlier in this manual. 

WARNING!  -  Use  of  improper  Voltage-Select  Switch  combinations  may  result  in  hazardous 
conditions and/or damage to speaker components not covered by speaker warranty. 

Connections: 

You can

 

connect either an XLR balanced cable or TRS balanced/unbalanced cable from the 

input of each BX8a to your corresponding preamp, computer or game console outputs. We recommend 
that you use high-quality balanced or unbalanced cables for input connections. Also, ALWAYS turn off the 
power of the BX8a and turn the volume of the BX8a down to a minimum before making the necessary 
connections. 

XLR Balanced Connection 

Assure that the power switch of the BX8a is turned off and that the volume control of the BX8a is turned 
down to a minimum. Connect the male end of an XLR balanced cable to the balanced input of the BX8a 
(refer to the following diagram for balanced connection). 

TRS Balanced/Unbalanced Connection 

Assure that the power switch of the BX8a is turned to off and that the volume control of the BX8a is turned 
down to a minimum. Connect the male end of a TRS balanced or TS unbalanced cable to the TRS input of 
the BX8a (refer to the following diagram for TRS connection).
