Opstelling

Uitpak

Carefully remove the monitor from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage. Retain the original packaging for potential future transport or service.

Plasing

Position the A5X monitors on stable surfaces, such as speaker stands or a desk, ensuring they are at ear level in your listening position. For optimal stereo imaging, place the monitors equidistant from your listening position, forming an equilateral triangle. Avoid placing them directly against walls or in corners, which can negatively affect bass response. The monitor dimensions are approximately 8.5"D x 6.5"W x 11"H.

Verbindings

  1. Kragverbinding: Ensure the monitor's power switch is in the 'OFF' position. Connect the provided power cord to the IEC inlet on the rear panel and then to a suitable AC power outlet. Verify the voltage selector switch on the rear panel matches your local mains voltage (bv. 115V of 230V).
  2. Oudio-invoer: The A5X offers both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA input connectors. Choose the appropriate cable (XLR or RCA, both included) to connect your audio source (e.g., audio interface, mixer) to the monitor. For best signal integrity, balanced XLR connections are recommended.
  3. Stereolink (Optional): If using two A5X monitors, the Stereolink feature allows you to control the volume of both monitors simultaneously from the master unit. Connect a standard RCA cable between the 'Stereo Link' output of the master monitor and the 'Stereo Link' input of the slave monitor.

Bedryfsinstruksies

Skakel aan/af

After all connections are made, switch on your audio source first, then power on the A5X monitor using the switch on the rear panel. When powering off, switch off the monitor first, then your audio source.

Volumebeheer

The main volume control knob is located on the front panel of the monitor. Rotate it clockwise to increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease it. If using Stereolink, adjusting the volume on the master unit will affect both monitors.
