StudioPro 3 User Guide

7. Network & Power Amplifiers

The active equalization, crossover networks, and power amplifiers for the StudioPro 3 are specially designed for this woofer and tweeter. The network distributes low-, mid-, and high-frequency audio signals to the proper components in order to minimize distortion and to achieve a balanced sound.

8. (Optional) Speaker Stands

We have included a pair of desktop/bookshelf speaker monitor stands with your StudioPro 3 system. They help point the StudioPro 3 monitors directly at the listener, optimizing the “sweet spot” for listening. High-frequency audio signals radiating from the tweeters tend to be fairly directional, so by using the stands you can help focus those signals for exceptional audio imaging.

Installation

For optimal performance of the StudioPro 3, please read the following directions carefully before installation.

Precautions

Connections: Connect the RCA outputs of your StudioPro 3 to the corresponding computer sound card, portable music player, or other audio device. We recommend that you use the supplied cables (or cables of equal or higher quality) for all connections. Be sure that the StudioPro 3 monitors are powered off before making any connections.

If you need to connect the StudioPro 3 speakers to a device with 1/4" outputs, like the M-Audio MobilePre USB, you can purchase an adapter cable that will have the 1/4" connection on one end and the RCA connection on the other end.

Correct Power Operation: Since the StudioPro 3 contains amplifiers, it must be connected to a power outlet using the detachable AC cable that is provided. Before connecting power, please make sure that the On/Off/Volume switch of the StudioPro 3 is rotated all the way counterclockwise to the off position.

WARNING! - Use of improper Voltage may result in hazardous conditions and/or damage to speaker components not covered by speaker warranty.

Acoustic/Traction Pads

In order to minimize vibrations and maximize physical stability, we recommend you use the provided acoustic/traction pads on the bottoms of the StudioPro 3 monitors and on the bottoms of the speaker stands (if you choose to use the stands).
