Follow the simple steps and diagram below for connecting an audio source to the speakers.

1. Connect the left and right speakers using the included two-conductor, 3.5mm

speaker cable.

2. Turn the MediaOne M30 Volume control completely counter-clockwise until it clicks

to the minimum/off setting.

3. Connect the MediaOne M30 to an AC power outlet using the included power cable.

4. Connect the audio output from your audio source such as a computer or portable

Note: Before plugging in and turning on, remember the “last on, first off” rule of powered

speakers. When powering up your system, be sure that all the wires are connected, turn

your mixer and any other outboard gear on, and then last turn on your MediaOne M30.

When powering down, turn your MediaOne M30 off first and then your mixer and outboard

gear.

Quick Start

MediaOne M30 7

Adding an Active Subwoofer

Adding a subwoofer to extend the low fre-

quency response of your monitor system

can be beneficial when mixing your music.

Typically, it is best to set the subwoofer level

to be equal to that of the main speakers.

Because deep-bass frequencies are non-di-

rectional, it is difficult for our ears to

locate the sound source, and the precise

placement of the subwoofer is not as critical

as the main speakers. The ideal location

is between the two main speakers. If you

notice there are frequencies that sound qui-

eter than others, move the subwoofer slightly

to the left or right.

To add a powered subwoofer to your MediaOne M30 speakers to create a 2.1 system:

• Connect your audio source to the left and right RCA Inputs of the MediaOne M30.

• Connect the MediaOne M30 1/8” STEREO / SUB Output to the left and right line

inputs of your active subwoofer.

• Play music from your audio source.

• Turn up your MediaOne M30 to your desired listening level.

• Turn up the level of the subwoofer to desired level.

Note: The MediaOne M30 front panel Volume control will control the level of the entire system.

SUBWOOFER

From Audio Source

1. Tweeter - 1” silk dome tweeter set in a custom waveguide

2. Low Frequency Driver - Heavy duty 3” woofer with a polypropylene cone and butyl

surround for extend low frequency response

3. Power / VOLUME (active) - This rotary knob controls the overall amount of the output

level. Turn the control clockwise to turn the system on. Turn the knob counterclock-

wise until it clicks to turn the system off.

4. Headphone Jack - 3.5mm stereo output jack for connecting headphones. The moni-

tors automatically mute when headphones are connected

5. Power Indicator (active) - LED lights white indicating the unit is powered on.

6. AUDIO INPUT - Unbalanced, Stereo RCA-type input connectors, for connecting audio

output from consumer level (-10dBV) devices such as a computer, MP3 player, or

smartphone. The red connector is the for right input and the white is for the left

input.

7. 1/8” STEREO / SUB OUT - This 3.5mm jack outputs stereo full audio to connect to an

external audio device or to an active subwoofer.

8. Bass Boost Switch - This switch enables a bass boost to enhance the low-frequency

response.

11. Bass Port - Tuned low frequency bass

port for extending the low end of the

speaker cabinets. Do not block the

ports as this will restrict the overall

performance of the speakers.

extension speaker using the includ-

ed two-conductor speaker cable.

A major objective when setting up your studio monitors is to obtain the best possible stereo

image. The MediaOne M30 monitors are designed to be used in a vertical position, with the

tweeter and woofer symmetrically in line. Do not place these speakers horizontally as this

will cause an offset in sound between the woofer and the tweeter, limiting your ability to

find optimal listening positions.

Near field (close to the listener) monitoring has become the choice of many engineers

because of the cost and complexities associated with mounting monitors onto a wall.

Positioning your studio monitors correctly is very important. Correct placement not only

creates the proper stereo image, but also minimizes the effects of your room’s reflections.

This is especially important in today’s project studios, which are often multi-use spaces. By

taking some time and listening carefully when setting up your monitors, you can create an

optimal listening environment.

The most important consideration when evaluating room acoustics is the presence of

reflective surfaces near the monitoring area. These can include flat tabletops, glass mirrors

or framed pictures, large open walls and even the surface of your mixing console. Most

reflecting sound will eventually reach the listening position, but since it is slightly delayed

from the direct source, the result is random cancellation of some frequencies, or comb fil-

tering. If possible, remove any and all reflective surfaces. You may also want to hang some

acoustic foam on walls near the monitors.

When positioning the monitors, you’ll want to set up what is commonly referred to as the

“mix triangle” (shown below). In this ideal configuration, the space between the left and

right monitor is equal to the distance from the listener to each monitor, forming an equi-

lateral triangle.
