Connecting The Resolv 80A - Samson RESOLV 80a Owner's Manual

Connecting the RESOLV 80a

Resolv 80a Quick Connections
Note: Before plugging in and turning on, remember the "last on first off" rule of power amplifiers (and
powered monitors). When powering up your system, be sure that all the wires are connected, turn your
mixer and any other outboard gear on, and then last turn your RESOLV 80a's on. When powering
down, turn your RESOLV 80a's off first and then your mixer and outboard gear.
The Resolv 80a connections can be made via one of the three rear panel Audio Inputs. You can use
RCA inputs for unbalanced -10dBV level signals, or either the 1/4-inch or XLR inputs for balanced
+4dBu level signals. Follow the simple steps and diagram below for a quick connection using a stan-
dard recording console's control room outputs.
• Lower your mixer's master outputs to all the way off.
• Connect the mixer's left Control Room output to the left-side RESOLV 80a LINE INPUT and the
mixer's right Control Room output to the right-side RESOLV 80a LINE INPUT.
• Set the Resolv 80a's input Volume control to the 2 o'clock position.
• Run an audio signal (like some music from a CD) through your mixer and raise the Control
Room level to a comfortable listening level.
