Operating the
RESOLV 50a
RESOLV 50a Control Panel
The RESOLV 50a’s rear control panel is where you will make your connections for both AC power and audio
signals. The rear panel also contains the controls to make adjustments to the overall volume and frequency
response curve. The following section details the rear panel controls and connections:
Powering the RESOLV 50a
Since the RESOLV 50a is an active studio monitor (with an on-board power amplifier and electronic crossover), it is nec-
esary to connect the unit to an AC power supply. Make sure that the main Power switch is set to the OFF position and
connect the supplied IEC power cable into the AC inlet.
Things that go Hum!
When running power cables, be careful not to run the AC power cords or AC extension cords in parallel to
your input cables. This will help reduce any AC hum that can be picked up. If your have to cross an AC line with
an audio line, try to cross them at a 90 degree angle for the least amount of induced hum. Using the RESOLV
50a’s balanced input connectors will greatly protect against the induced hum thanks to the common mode
rejection (the induced hum is phase
canceled) that its balanced input circuit
provides.
POWER SWITCH
– The POWER
switch is used to turn on the RESOLV
50a’s active electronics. When set
to the ON position, the blue, front
panel LED will illuminate indicating
the unit is powered up and ready for
operation.
