Audio product manual QUICK START If you already have experience with studio monitors, the Quick Start guide ought to be more than enough to get you started. For unexperienced users we recommend reading the whole user‘s manual in order to prevent any misuse. 2.1.
SC4070 OPERATION 3.1. First Steps Rear Connections & DIP Switches Check the package components (loudspeaker, user‘s manual, power cord, grille, rubber feet); Check the voltage setting (see „Mains Voltage Selector“). Check the setting of the DIP Switches (variable). Connections: there are two input connectors on the rear side. These allow the connection of balanced sources with XLR connectors or unbalanced sources with RCA connectors.
Audio product manual 3.2. Horizontal/Vertical Orientation The SC4070 can be used in horizontal or vertical position thanks to the incorporated swiveling „Mid/High Silver Plate.“ By default, your monitor is adjusted to be placed horizontally. To use it in vertical position, turn the tweeter/mid-driver section 90º...
SC4070 3.3. The Grid In order to protect the tweeter, your EVE Audio monitors are supplied with a metal grid, which has no impact on the sound. The grid is attached to the tweeter by means of magnetic attraction. Be careful not to damage the folded tweeter diaphragm when placing the grid: Wrong grid position <...

Volume mode. 3.8. Filters The filters of the EVE Audio monitors were specially developed to offer you the possibility of adjusting your monitoring system to the characteristics of your room. These filters help correct the alterations to the frequency response produced by the room acoustics and listening distance.
Audio product manual 3.9. Low Filter The Low-Shelf Filter allows you to boost or attenuate frequencies below 300 Hz in 0.5 dB steps. Use this filter whenever the acoustics of your room cause problems in the low frequency range. If the low frequencies are boosted by the room, you can attenuate them with the Low-Shelf Filter.
SC4070 is too close to the loudspeakers or the room has reflective surfaces, it is reasonable to attenuate the high frequencies. 3.11. Mid Filter The Mid Filter is a bell filter with 1 kHz center frequency. It allows you to boost or cut the mid range up to +/-3 dB in 0.5 dB steps.
The following applies to the Low, High and Desk filters: • Every step represents a 0.5 dB increment. • Maximal boost is +3 dB and maximal attenuation is –5 dB. • Refer to the chapter on POSITIONING to set the filters of your EVE Audio monitors effectively. 3.13.
The Mains Voltage Selector allows you to adjust the operating voltage of your EVE Audio monitors to the local power grid. Set it to “230” if your local power grid is 220-240 volts or “115” if it is 110-120 volts.
3.18. Power Connector (IEC) Use the power cord supplied to connect your EVE Audio monitors to the power grid. The IEC connector includes an integrated fuse. If your EVE Audio monitors stop working and the fuse seems to be the problem, proceed as follows: •...
4.2. Height and Distance The tweeter of your EVE Audio monitors should be ideally placed at the same height as your ears. If this is not possible tilt the monitors so that the tweeter is directed to your ears.
The high frequencies are forwarded to the full-range satellite speakers. Ideally, such a system would comprise two EVE Audio SC4070 monitors plus an EVE Audio TS110 or TS112 subwoofer. These subwoofers allow you to set the crossover frequency for the satellite loudspeakers and the subwoofer.
(left/right) and a subwoofer for the low frequencies. The speakers from a circle around the listening position. Ideally, a 5.1 system would comprise five EVE Audio SC4070 monitors plus an EVE Audio TS110 or TS112 subwoofer. However, you might also want to consider the following combinations: Front: SC4070, Center: SC4070, Rear: SC307.
Especially in the low-mid frequency range. If this is the case with your setup, use the Desk Filter of your EVE Audio monitors to reduce the impact of the reflections from the desk or mixer. 4.7.
