At the desk, aimed at you
Sit 0.75 to 3 metres back from the pair. Use the meter bridge, a table beside a smaller desk, or stands. Angle both toward you, with the tweeter near ear height.

Inputs and trims for a real room
Connect up to two sources over balanced XLR or ¼" TRS cables. INPUT TRIM matches each monitor to your desk and balances monitors in a surround system. HF TRIM and BASS ADJUST adapt the response to your room.

Rests when the music stops
The Class-AB amplifiers have independent high and low frequency limiters. AUTO-STANDBY shuts the speaker down when no audio has played for a while. When audio resumes, it powers back on.
