Design Philosophy Design Elements A studio monitor is really a tool used to aurally “measure” the changes in an audio path. Ask any pro or semi-pro recordist what they think makes a great studio monitor and you’ll get basically the same answers: “Accuracy, transparency, flat response, and the truth”. Active Filter Crossovers - The V-Series 2 power amplifier contains three active filters.
Back Panel Features A (A) SYSTEM GAIN C B Input sensitivity is adjusted (counterclockwise reduces sensitivity) through a rear panel mounted trim control. 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’re using your Series 2 monitors in a surround system and you need to balance levels or if your monitor-send is too hot and not adjustable.
Installing Your Monitors The close-field monitor, by definition, reduces room interaction. This can be compared to the conventional stereo configuration or the large monitor arrangement in a recording studio where sounds emanating from the monitor or reflecting off ceilings, walls, and floors greatly affect the sound quality. By shortening the path to the ear, the close-field monitor offers a tremendous amount of flexibility, allowing the sound to become less susceptible to differing room conditions.
5.1 CHANNEL SURROUND SET-UP Troubleshooting Begin set-up by placing the Left and Right front channels 30º degrees from the Center channel and equidistant to the listening position (Figure 4). The Left Surround (Rear) and Right Surround (Rear) channels should be placed 110º degrees from the Center channel. Their location should also be equidistant from the listening position.
Problem: The sound quality changes... • Repeat steps in the previous troubleshooting section above before continuing to the next steps. • Disconnect the signal cable at the input of the monitor. With power on, place your ear close to each driver (tweeter/woofer) and listen for noise (i.e., a slight hiss or hum). If there's absolutely no sound whatsoever, it could be that one or more of the drivers (woofer or tweeter or both) is at fault.
