Owners Manual, V1.0

Connection Steps

Position the Sat 6D monitors where you intend to use it in your studio system.
The following steps describe how to connect Blue Sky Sat 6D to your studio system:
1. Turn off all power sources and components before connecting inputs and outputs.
2. Neatly arrange and organize wiring to and from the Blue Sky Sat 6D and all components.
Separate AC wires from audio cables to prevent hum or other unwanted noise from being
introduced into the system.
3. Connect the outputs of your mixing console or computer workstation to the appropriate analog
balanced XLR input, or AES XLR input on the Sat 6D.
4. If you are using a Blue Sky Sub 12D in a 2.1 mode, connect the outputs of your mixing console
or computer workstation to the appropriate analog balanced XLR input, or AES XLR input on the
Sub 12D, THEN, connect via the Analog or Digital outputs on the Sub12D to the required input on
the Sat 6D.
5. If you are using Digital inputs, please make sure you are using 110-ohm AES digital cables, not
standard balanced cables. They are not the same.
6. If you are using Digital inputs, please make sure to correctly configure your Sat 6D as either
left or right. You can send the digital input into either speaker, and then via the Digital out / Thru,
route the digital signal to the other Sat 6D.
7. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the IEC power cord receptacle.
8. Plug the AC power cord into AC power outlet.
IMPORTANT !
When powering up any system, turn the Sat 6D monitors on last. When powering down, turn it off
first. This will prevent any turn-on and turn-off thumps.
Always mute or fully attenuate the input level when switching sources. Do not change input
connections to the Sat 6D when the speaker is powered on.
