Quick set-up guide:
1. First of all, check that the monitors and all audio sources (mixing console...) are turned off and that all
settings at the rear panel of the monitor are set to 0.
2. Connect the audio signal from the source to the monitors using the XLR input.
3. Check that the correct voltage is selected according to the mains power voltage chosen using the voltage
selector, check the fuse and replace if necessary. The amperage of the fuse depends on the operating
voltage (see fuse characteristics in specifications table). The monitor speakers absolutely must be
grounded using the power cable provided. See page 18 for more information.
4. Turn on the audio source and check that the output level of the audio source connected to the monitor is
set to -∞ or to a very low level.
5. Turn on the power to your monitors. The monitors are now in "Standby" mode.
6. Turn up the output level of the audio source until a signal is detected by the monitors in order for them to
turn on automatically.
After turning on the power to the monitors, and once the automatic Standby mode has been
activated, the audio signal detection circuit within the monitor will automatically switch from
"Standby" to "On" after a few seconds. You can select to deactivate this Standby mode (see
page 19 for more information about this function).
7. Once you have finished recording, mixing or mastering, we recommend turning off your equipment in the
following order:
a. Turn off the monitors
b. Turn off the audio sources
Trio11 Be
Trio11 Be is a professional near-field monitor with 2 monitor speakers within the same cabinet. Trio11 Be is
composed of an 10-inch subwoofer with a "W" composite sandwich cone, a 5-inch woofer with "W" composite
sandwich cone and a 1-inch pure Beryllium inverted dome tweeter fitted with a protective grille. The purpose of
this grille is to protect the tweeter. Trio11 Be's acoustic tuning was carried out with the tweeter grille in place.
For the Trio11 Be to work at its acoustic best and to provide the best level of protection, leave the grille in place.
In 3-way mode, the monitor has a frequency response of 30Hz to 40kHz (+/- 3dB) and 40Hz to 20kHz
(+/- 1dB). In 2-way mode, only the 5-inch woofer and the tweeter are activated. The 2-way monitor speaker
has a frequency response of 90Hz to 20kHz (+/- 3 dB) and is very efficient for checking the transfer quality
of mixes carried out using systems with a limited bass range frequency response. These modes are controlled
using a footswitch (see page 18).
The Trio11 Be monitor speaker is equipped with 3 internal amplifiers:
1 x 300W powering the 10-inch subwoofer
1 x 150W powering the 5-inch woofer
1 x 100W powering the 1-inch tweeter
