NOTICE
• Turning the power switch ON and OFF in rapid succession can cause
the device's electronics to malfunction. Please wait for 3 seconds or
more after turning the power OFF before turning it ON again.
• Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to
the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product
for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC
outlet.

Connect the supplied power cable here. First connect the
power cord to the speaker, then insert the power cord plug
into the AC outlet.
1 LEVEL control
Adjusts the output level of the speaker.
When set to the 12-o'clock position the speaker is
optimized for a nominal input level of +4 dB.
2 INPUT 1/2 connector
These connectors receive the input signal to the
speaker. Two input connectors are provided: one
balanced XLR connector, and one balanced (TRS)
phone jack.
NOTE The XLR and phone jack input connectors can not be
used simultaneously. Use only one input connector at a
time.
NOTE Refer to "Connectable cables" on page 5 for more
connector details.
3 ROOM CONTROL switch
Adjusts the speaker's low-frequency response.
This switch can be used to compensate for
exaggerated low-frequency response that can be
caused by reflections in some listening environments.
Setting the switch to the [0] position produces a flat
frequency response. The [-2 dB] setting attenuates
the range below 500 Hz by 2 dB, and the [-4 dB]
setting attenuates the range below 500 Hz by -4 dB.
4 HIGH TRIM switch
Adjusts the speaker's high-frequency response.
Setting the switch to the [0] position produces a flat
frequency response. The [+2 dB] setting boosts the
range above 2 kHz by 2 dB, while the [-2 dB] setting
attenuates the range above 2 kHz by -2 dB.
