Exactly as described, the full user-manual (145 pages). Perfect.
If the fuses blow immediately upon power up, this indicates a fault condition and the monitor should be returned to KRK for repair.
NEUTRIK® COMBO CONNECTOR
The Neutrik® Combo connector accommodates ¼� phone plugs, XLR, TRS. Please note that PIN 2 is hot! If you are using an unbalanced connection make sure and wire PIN 1 and PIN 3 together at the source end.
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. Placing the monitor close to a rear wall, sidewall, or a corner will reinforce the low frequencies. Generally speaking, if you move them two to three feet away from walls and corners, you'll hear less low frequency interaction (excluding any interaction with the mixing console).
Positioning Your Monitors
Positioning your monitors correctly in the studio is critical to their performance. Typically, they should be placed so that that the listening position is fully "covered" with all monitors resting on the same horizontal plane. A great way to test a monitor for its imaging capability is to play back a CD or DVD recorded acoustically in stereo (or one recorded in surround sound if you have a surround sound set-up). We recommend acoustic music because it represents the spectrum of sound.) You can adjust the angle of each monitor by listening for dead spots. Keep in mind, changing the angle or position of a monitor will change the sound.
2-CHANNEL SET-UP
Close-Field Configuration - In a control room situation, the monitors are often times placed on the meter bridge or in a close-field listening position. Initial placement starts by measuring out a simple equilateral triangle (all three sides equal in length) with the apex at the center of the listening position (as shown in Figure 1) as an "overlay" for the stereo installation. In this configuration, the Left and Right monitors are each placed at a 60º angle equidistant from the listening position.
