ADAM AUDIO A8X [6/32] Quick start

2.1 Important Information for set up

After having unpacked your loudspeaker, please allow the system to acclimate to

the temperature of the room for approximately an hour.

It is important to ensure the speakers sit ﬁrmly on a solid surface!

We recommend that you retain the original packaging, as it is the best way to

guarantee safe transportation should the need to do so arise.

Please note that the loudspeakers will take some break-in time to achieve optimum

sonic performance.

2.2 Quick Start

a) Before connecting the loudspeakers to your audio components and the power

source make sure that both the loudspeakers and your audio source are switched

off and set the level controls fully counterclockwise.

b) There are two options of connection:

Basic active speaker use. Connect your sound source or mixing console to the

speakers. Use either the RCA (unbalanced) or the XLR (balanced) connectors.

You will ﬁnd the connector wiring printed on the speaker’s rear panel (for further

information, see 3.1).

Stereo Link. If you want to use the Stereo Link (controlling the overall volume by one

control), please see 3.2.

c) Check if the speciﬁed voltage matches the voltage of the power supply you use.

If this is not the case do not connect the loudspeakers to a power source! Please

contact your local dealer or national distributor.

If the voltages match, use the included power cables to connect the loudspeaker to

the AC sockets.

d) Switch on the main on/off switches on the front panel of the loudspeakers.

e) Make sure that the line out level (volume) of your stereo is either at a low level or

all the way off. Then, switch on your audio system.

f) Turn on your source of music and adjust the volume carefully.
