The illustration above shows a common use for CR-XBT Series Multimedia Monitors. Perhaps a friend created
a playlist on their smartphone and wants to share it. With great hesitation, you finally oblige. Everyone has that
one friend with terrible taste in music. We know, it happens.
In this example, a smartphone is connected to the CR-XBT Series Multimedia Monitors via Bluetooth.
Next we’ll want to connect the passive speaker. The included black (–) and red (+) speaker wires should
be connected from the powered monitors ± spring clips to the passive monitors ± spring clips as detailed
by the dotted lines above:
Connect black (–) to black (–) and red (+) to red (+).
Almost there! Move the ‘Powered Speaker Position Select’ switch to either the “L” or “R” position based
on whether the powered reference monitor – the one with the volume knob – will be on the lef or right side.
Now position the monitors where you would like them. Play audio through the smartphone making sure
that the volume of the smartphone and monitors are above “0”.
Last step: move the monitors around until the optimal sound has been achieved and adjust volume to taste.
Optional: plugging a pair of headphones into the /8" headphones jack auto-defeats the speaker output.
The front panel volume control then controls the level going to the phones.
