1
Input Gain Knob: This knob adjusts
the gain level of the XLR/TRS
3
and RCA
2
inputs. The gain is at
minimum when the knob is turned fully
counter-clockwise; the gain is set to its
maximum level when the knob is turned
fully clockwise.
2
RCA Input: This connector accepts
line-level signals from audio sources
with unbalanced RCA-style outputs.
3
XLR/TRS Input: This “combo” input
jack accepts both XLR and 1/4”
TRS-type connectors. Connect your
audio interface, mixer, or other line-level
audio source to this jack.
▶ NOTE: The XLR/TRS and RCA inputs are summed (i.e., mixed together) before arriving
at the CX amplifier and it is possible to have two sound sources connected to a speaker
at the same time. However, it is recommended that you do not play audio through both
connectors simultaneously as this may overload the inputs and result in clipping (distortion)
at the inputs.

Power Switch: This switch powers your
CX monitors on and off.
5
Power Connector: This socket accepts
a standard IEC-type power cable.
6
Input Voltage Selector: This recessed
switch adjusts the input voltage from
100-120V or 220-240V and allows your
CX monitor to be used worldwide. Make
sure this switch is set correctly for your
country to prevent damage to the speaker.
TIP: Power outlets in North
America, Japan, and many parts
of South America usually supply
between 100V and 120V whereas
outlets in Europe and most of Africa
and Asia provide between 220V and
240V. If you are not sure about your
region, be sure to check your power
outlet’s rating and set the Input
Voltage selector before connecting
and switching on your CX monitors.
