20/20 V2 User Guide

Thank you for choosing the 20/20� V2 Direct Field Monitor System. To get the most from your new monitors, please take a moment to read this manual and familiarize yourself with the product�s features, set-up, and use. About the 20/20 Series Our engineers have spent years designing transducers, studio electronics, and high performance studio monitoring systems�including some of the most popular professional speakers used today. Now, using the latest digital acoustic design tools and high performance driver and power amplifier technology, they�ve developed the 20/20 V2 series�the successor generation to our award-winning 20/20� and 20/20bas� monitors. The V2 monitors feature a number of technical improvements, while at the same time maintaining the standards in performance and sonic excellence for which the original 20/20 series is internationally renowned. The 20/20 V2 series comprises two 8" two-way models, the passive 20/20 V2 and the active 20/20bas V2. Both models incorporate the same 1" silk dome high frequency driver and 8" mineral impregnated low frequency driver used in the original 20/20 and 20/20bas, so the accuracy and frequency response of the V2 models is virtually identical to the originals. The components are housed, however in a new cabinet that features updated styling�and, more importantly�additional protection against accidental damage. The 20/20bas V2 also features an advanced new amplifier that delivers enhanced performance. Theamplifier is powered by a toroidal transformer, for greatly reduced mechanical and electrical noise. Unpacking The monitors� shipping container and inner boxes are designed to protect them during transit. Please unpack and check your monitors carefully, and immediately report any damage to your dealer or to the company that delivered them to you. The packing materials are designed to be reused�do not discard them. If you need to return the monitors to the factory for repair, they must be shipped in the original packaging. Setup You�ll notice that the 20/20 V2 monitors are physically identical. When used in a stereo configuration, there is no physical or acoustic distinction between the left and right speakers. The cabinets can sit vertically or horizontally so long as both cabinets are situated in the same direction. To maximize the �sweet spot� we recommend that the cabinets be oriented vertically. If you choose to place them in a horizontal position, orient the cabinets with the high frequency drivers pointing to the outside, away from each other. Since each
