Make sure the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 is connected to your computer as described during the

To use active speakers (self-powered speakers with a built-in amplifier) with your KOMPLETE
AUDIO 6:
1. Turn the Volume Control knob (MAIN VOLUME 1/2) on the top panel of the KOMPLETE
AUDIO 6 to the left-end stop to set the volume to minimum.
2.
Connect the main outputs (MAIN 1/2) on the rear panel of the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 to
your active speakers with stereo 1/4" cables. First, connect the L output channel with
the left speaker, then the R output channel to the right speaker.
3. Once you have connected the speakers to the device, set the gain knob on your active
boxes to the appropriate level (0dB) and turn them on.
