1. Everybody is saying the same thing they want the electrical signal going in to a monitor to be reproduced mechanically by the transducers and they want that to happen without any degradation to the original signal Professionals need to trust a speaker to deliver their artistic vision in a way that will translate to a variety of audio mediums How you get there from a technical stand point is by designing a speaker that eliminates or minimizes several damaging conditions The KRK design philoso phy is manifested by paying very close attention to what we call the three corner stones 1 Spectral Balance Timbre What people tend to think sounds good is not necessarily flat response A perfect ly flat monitor tends to sound harsh and abrasive technically correct but not very musical Research shows us that a speaker with the proper spectral balance is most often considered a great studio monitor Spectral balance is defined by e Smooth on axis not necessarily flat response e Smooth octave to octave response e Smooth off axis response not necessarily flat From years of listening to feedback from some of the top engineers and producers we ve come to understand how a properly tuned monitor can become a valuable recording tool 2 Distortion Management Any loss or addition to the audio signal is a distortion Various amplifier distortions have been eliminated the most common being intermodulation transient inte2. d dy 4 i a 0 M i y i I T 7 i C a ke e sr AT Su i a n ku A A sla Sa 4 Car Listening Position 4 i 4 ae San j aa ae or fos 2 di g ie A i STA AT N 7 ae x S N 4 N x N x x a DR Pi an Prali Figure 4 console Once the monitors have been placed you need to adjust the SYSTEM GAIN pots see page 2 for each monitor so that all channels have exactly the same SPL output at the listening position Although this can be done simply by lis tening to each channel one at a time and adjusting for relative levels we recom mend using an SPL meter and filtered noise pink noise to test each channel inde pendently Simply take a reading from each monitor and then adjust all the moni tors to match your lowest SPL reading Your system levels should now be bal anced for multi channel surround The most significant thing to remember is that each room presents its own set of acoustic variables You ll want to experiment a bit to arrive at the best possible sound for your room Troubleshooting Problem If there is no power check to see if e The power cord is plugged into both the IEC socket on the rear panel of the unit and into the AC mains e The AC mains voltage is matched to the operating voltage requirements See Changing Voltage in the Connecting the System section on page 3 If the AC mains voltage is higher than the V 8 s selected v
