Powering the StudioDock 3i and 4i
Since the StudioDock 3i and 4i are active monitors with on-board power amplifiers, it is
necessary to connect the right side monitor to an AC power supply. Make sure that the
main Power switch is set to the off position and connect the supplied IEC power cable
into the AC inlet.
Things that go Hum!
When running power cables, be careful not to run the AC power cords or AC extension
cords in parallel to your input cables. This will help reduce any AC hum that can be
picked up. If your have to cross an AC line with an audio line, try to cross them at a 90
degree angle for the least amount of induced hum.
