QUICK START.
We realize that you can�t wait to hook up your new Mackie Designs HR824 High Resolution Studio Monitors and try them out. Nevertheless, please take the time to read this page NOW, and the rest can wait until you�re good and ready. Each of the HR824 cabinets has its own builtin power amplifiers. That�s right, two amplifiers per speaker cabinet; one for the high-frequency tweeter and one for the low-frequency woofer. You should turn the INPUT SENSITIVITY control on the back of the cabinet down (fully counterclockwise) before turning on the Studio Monitors for the first time. Also be sure to set the ON/OFF switch on the front panel to its OFF position. This will prevent you from accidentally connecting a hot signal source to the monitors and getting a rude surprise. There are a number of other settings you can make on the back of the HR824, and you can look at the graphic instructions relating to each of them on the back of the cabinet (or wait until you read about them later on in this manual so you really know what they do). For now, just leave them at the factory default settings (ACOUSTIC SPACE = WHOLE; LOW FREQ = 37Hz; HIGH FREQ = 0), except for the POWER MODE switch. Be sure it is set to the OFF position.

1. Connect the line-level monitor signal from your mixer (or other signal source) to the SIGNAL INPUT jack on the HR824 Studio Monitor (1�4-inch TRS or XLR). 2. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the IEC socket on the back of the monitor. Plug the other end into an AC outlet properly configured with the correct voltage for your particular model. 3. Set the POWER MODE switch on the rear panel to the ON position. With the ON/OFF switch on the front panel in the OFF position, the power amplifier is in Standby mode. 4. Start your signal source (tape deck, CD, DAW, or whatever), but leave the master level control on your mixer down. 5. Set the ON/OFF switch on the front of the HR824 to the ON position. The red PWR LED will turn on. 6. Slowly turn up the INPUT SENSITIVITY control on the back of the monitor to its fully clockwise position (NORMAL). 7. Adjust the master volume on your mixer to a comfortably loud listening level. Enjoy the silky smooth highs and authoritative, commanding lows of the HR824. Then read the rest of this manual�especially the following:
