    System Controls AMPK00053 AMPK00047 AMPK00050 System Volume The input sensitivity is adjusted with the rear panel mounted System Gain control (counterclockwise reduces sensitivity). Adjustment range is from -30dB to +6dB. Factory preset gain is +6dB, which should suffice for most conditions. Normally, adjustments would only be made if you were using your monitor in a surround system and needed to balance levels or if your monitor send is too hot and not adjustable.

Typically, they should be placed so that the listening position is fully “covered” with all monitors resting on the same horizontal plane. A great way to test a monitor for its imaging capability is to play back a CD or DVD recorded acoustically in stereo (or one recorded in surround sound if you have a surround sound set up).

It is normally used with larger monitors or when the monitors are too large or heavy to be placed on the work surface. This set up has the potential for a larger sweet spot and better spatial imaging.

  • Page 14: Troubleshooting

    Your RoKit G2 monitor provides maximum circuitry protection against AC power surges, amplifier overdrive, and overheating of the amplifiers. Turn the monitor off then wait 30 minutes to allow the back plate to cool down.
  • Page 15 • Make sure that the power cord is plugged snugly into the IEC socket on the rear of the monitor. • Check the connections between the signal source and the monitor. The RoKit G2’s XLR and TRS connectors are a completely balanced system. If you’re connecting an unbal anced output to the monitor, be sure that you’re using Pin 2 for signal and have Pin 1...
