Connecting loudspeakers
The two MONITOR OUTPUTS (1/4” jacks) on the rear panel can be used to connect monitoring
speakers. Self-powered monitors (i.e., typical computer speakers) incorporate internal amplifiers,
and may be connected directly. Larger, passive loudspeakers will require a separate stereo amplifier;
in this case, the rear panel outputs should be connected to the amplifier’s inputs.
The line output connectors are 3-pole (TRS) ¼” (6.35 mm) jack sockets, and are electronically
balanced. Typical consumer (hi-fi) amplifiers and small powered monitors will have unbalanced
inputs, either on phono (RCA) sockets, or via a 3.5 mm 3-pole jack plug intended for direct connection
to a computer. In either case, use a suitable connecting cable with jack plugs at one end.
Professional power amplifiers will generally have balanced inputs.
