Connecting your SX series active studio monitor system

Quick Connections

Note: Before plugging in and turning on, remember the "last on, first off"
rule of power amplifiers (and power monitors). When powering up your
system, be sure that all the wires are connected, turn your mixer and any
other outboard gears on, and then last turn your SX series monitor on.

When powering down, turn your SX series monitor off first and then your
m o n i t o r
mixer and outboard gears.
The SX series monitor connections can be made via one of the two-rear
panel audio inputs(Except SX-3A and SX-4A). You can use RCA input for
unbalanced -10dBu level signals or the XLR balanced +4dBu level signal input.
Follow the simple steps and diagram below for a quick connection using
a standard recording console's (such as ICON's Umix series mixing
console) control room outputs.
Lower your mixer's master outputs to all the way down.
Connect the mixer's left control room output to the left-side monitor
speaker line input and the mixer's right control room output to the right-
side monitor speaker.
Set the SX series monitor speaker's input volume control to the 2 o'clock position.
Run an audio signal (like some music from CD) through your mixer and
raise the control room level to a comfortable listening level.
