First Steps
Rückseitige Anschlüsse & DIP-Schalter
Check the package components (loudspeaker, user’s manual, power cord,
grid, rubber feet).
Check the voltage setting (see “Mains Voltage Selector”).
Check the setting of the DIP Switches (variable).
Connections: there are two input connectors on the rear side. These allow
the connection of balanced sources with XLR connectors or unbalanced
sources with RCA connectors.
•
Pin assignment XLR: 1 = Shield, 2 = hot (+), 3 = cold(-).
•
Pin assignment RCA: Center conductor = Signal, Ring = Shield.
Both analog inputs can be used simultaneously, whereby the signals are
summed.
The maximum level of the source signal should not exceed 8 dBu. If the
input is overloaded the LED ring will start blinking.

The Grid
In order to protect the tweeter, your EVE Audio monitors are supplied with
a metal grid, which has no impact on the sound. The grid is attached to the
tweeter by means of magnetic attraction.
Be careful not to damage the folded tweeter diaphragm when placing the
grid:
Wrong grid position < > Correct grid position
Hold the grid with your fingers parallel to the front side of the monitor. The
perforated hexagon must exhibit two horizontal sides. Make sure that the
grid remains parallel to the front side.
Draw the grid close to the tweeter. The tweeter’s magnetic field will attract
and fix the grid, which can always be adjusted later if needed.

lights up once around the Volume control. Afterwards, the LED on the right
end will light dimly and the power consumption is reduced to 1 watt.

To exit the Standby Mode press briefly the Volume control once again. The
level will increase gradually.
