6 DIGITAL MONITOR SPEAKERS MS40/MS20 User Manual User Manual
Begin by connecting the left speaker to the right speaker by wiring the attached
speaker cable from connector (14) to connector (16) on the left speaker.
Connect the analog outputs of your mixer, keyboard or computer sound card to
LINE 1 input (12). Connect a second piece of equipment to LINE 2 inputs (13).
If you own equipment with digital connectors—such as CD or MD players—
simply connect them to the digital inputs (8) and (9). Select the digital signal
you want to monitor with the input selector switch (10).
You can mix two input signals within the MS20/MS40 by using the volume
controls (6) and (7). This enables you to monitor two dierent sound sources
simultaneously. The above wiring example shows how you can monitor your live
keyboard performance to a playback coming from your MD player or digital audio
workstation (computer).
The MS20/MS40 speakers are shielded, which allows you to place them near your
computer monitor without causing interference or damage. However, do not
place your MS20/MS40 speakers near power amps. Doing so will result in an
induced hum in your speakers.
