Description
Rent a monitor speaker set? Monitor Speakers for small to medium-sized performances and presentations. These 8″ active coaxial monitors are compact in size and powerful in output. You can use this monitor speaker set for artists, DJs, and presenters. Because these LD Systems MON8A G3 speakers are so compact, they don’t immediately stand out visually.
What can I use this monitor speaker set for?
This monitor speaker set is excellent for use in small to medium-sized events that require clear reproduction of speech or music. As these are only 8″ monitors, they are compact and therefore don’t take up much space on a stage. If you need a larger monitor set, you can look at the 12″ monitor speaker set.
What does it mean that these monitor speakers are coaxial?
A normal full-range or top speaker has the high driver mounted above the mid or low driver. In a coaxial speaker, the high driver is mounted in the center of the low or mid driver. This makes the sound more direct and improves the dispersion angle. Ideal for speakers where the speaker, artist, or DJ is at a short distance from the speaker.
Which preset should I use when I rent these monitor speakers?
Of course, the chosen preset is up to the user. You’ll naturally get the best out of the speaker if you use the preset according to how you’re using the speaker. For example, you have ‘full-range’ when you use the speaker on a stand. In this case, the low and high ranges are slightly boosted and the mid-range is slightly dampened.
In the ‘flat’ preset, the speaker is as neutral as possible, ideal for when you’re not yet familiar with the speaker but want a neutral sound. In the ‘Monitor’ preset, the low and very high frequencies are slightly reduced. In ‘Monitor HPF’, the low frequencies start even later than in the ‘Monitor’ preset. With the EQ settings, Notch Gain, Notch Freq, and Delay, you can further adjust the monitor speaker to your liking.
How do I connect this MON 8A G3 Monitor speaker set to my mixing console?
1. Place the LD Systems MON 8A G3 monitor speaker where you’re going to use it. That means, as a full-range speaker on a stand (not included). And as a monitor in the right place on the stage.
2. Connect the powerCON TRUE1 cable to the power connection of the speaker. Turn 90 degrees until you hear a ‘click’. Connect the other end to the power grid.
3. Use an XLR 3-pin cable (not included) or 6.3mm Jack cable (not included) to connect to the output of your mixing console. Then connect this to the input connection of the monitor speaker.
4. Turn on the monitor and adjust the volume knob to the desired volume.
5. Set the desired preset. Supplement this with desired EQ or delay settings if needed.
