Getting Ready; Connecting An Amp And Speaker System - Roland Fantom XR Owner's Manual

Getting Ready

Connecting an Amp and Speaker System

Since the Fantom-XR contains no amplifier or speakers, you'll need to connect it to audio
equipment such as a keyboard amplifier, monitor speaker system or home stereo, or use
headphones to hear its sound.
1.
Before hooking anything up, make sure that the power on all of your gear is turned
OFF.
2.
Connect one end of the supplied power cable to the Fantom-XR, and the other end to a
power outlet.
3.
Connect the Fantom-XR to your amp/speaker system as shown in the diagram.

To prevent malfunction and/
or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the
volume, and turn off the
power on all devices before
making any connections.
In order to fully experience the
Fantom-XR's sound, we
recommend using a stereo
amp/speaker system. If you're
using a mono system,
however, make your
connections to the Fantom-
XR's OUTPUT A (MIX) jack L
(MONO).
Audio cables are not included
with the Fantom-XR. You'll
need to provide them.
For details on how to install a
Wave Expansion Board (sold
separately), refer to "Installing
the Wave Expansion Board"
(p. 166).
