7. L INPUT (XLR)
This is a female XLR connector that accepts a XLR plug
from any balanced or unbalanced line level device.
8. L INPUT (JACK)
This is a female JACK connector that accepts a JACK plug
from any balanced or unbalanced line level device.
9. L OUTPUT (XLR)
This is a male XLR connector, that provides a balanced
line-level signal. This signal can be filtered with the LO-
CUT filter (also know as high-pass filter) to connect a sat
speaker. This output is wired as follows:
Pin 1 = shield or ground
Pin 2 = + positive or "hot"
Pin 3 = - negative or "cold"
10. R INPUT (XLR)
Same as above L INPUT. Use both inputs and outputs when connect a stereo system to a single
subwoofer (1 sub + 2 sat), which is the typical studio STEREO system. In the case of a mono system (1
sub + 1 sat for each channel) or in case of LFE channel (5.1 surround system) you can use either left or
right input without distinction.
11. R INPUT (JACK)
Same as above.
12. R OUTPUT (XLR)
Same as above. Use both inputs and outputs when connecting a stereo system to a single subwoofer (1
sub + 2 sat). In the case of a mono system (1 sub + 1 sat for each channel) you have to use the same
channel used for input: left or right.

8
13. LO-CUT switch
Set this switch OFF to send at L and R OUTPUTs the same signal of L and R INPUTs respectively: typically
use this setting if the signal is sent to a speaker with built-in LO-CUT/HIGH PASS filter.
Set this switch ON to send at L and R OUTPUTs a LO-CUT/HIGH PASS filtered signal of L and R INPUTs
respectively: use this setting for a STEREO system with EIKON monitors.
14. LO-CUT potentiometer
With this control you set the frequency (80 – 120 Hz range) of the LO-CUT filter applied to the signal
sent to the main studio monitors (see examples for the most used settings with EIKON studio monitors).
15. LINK OUTPUT
Use this output to send the input signal to another subwoofer if you want to enhance the system’s low-
frequency response (see also the EIKON10S block diagram).
16. HI-CUT potentiometer
With this control you set the frequency (80 – 120 Hz range) of the HI-CUT filter applied to the signal sent
to the subwoofer (see examples for the most used settings with EIKON studio monitors).
17. PHASE
This switch reverses the polarity of the subwoofer. Depending on the placement of the subwoofer with
relation to the studio monitor, you can get a better low-frequency response in the room if you reverse
the polarity of the subwoofer’s signal (see examples for the most used settings with EIKON studio
monitors).
18. LEVEL
This potentiometer sets the level of the signal sent to the subwoofer amplifier.
19. ON
RED LED that shows the “ON” status of the subwoofer.
EIKON MAINS PANEL
20. POWER
Use this switch to power ON or OFF the loudspeaker. It is
"ON" when the switch is in the "I" position.
21. AC~ SOCKET
Here’s where you plug in your mains supply cord. You
should always use the mains cord supplied with the
device. Be sure that your device is turned off before you
plug the mains supply cord into an electrical outlet.
22. FUSE holder / VOLTAGE SELECTOR
Here is where the mains protection fuse is placed.
REPLACE THE PROTECTION FUSE ONLY WITH THE
SAME TYPE.
IF, AFTER THE REPLACEMENT, THE FUSE
INTERRUPTS AGAIN, DO NOT TRY AGAIN THEN CONTACT
THE PROEL SERVICE CENTER.
The fuse holder also behaves as switch to set the AC voltage line of your country (usually it is set by
factory and isn't necessary to change it).
WARNING: be careful to insert the voltage selector for the correct AC LINE VOLTAGE, an
incorrect setting of AC LINE VOLTAGE could damage seriously the internal electronics!

BASIC STEREO SETUP
Two way systems use a separate woofer and tweeter mounted
in a vertical line, so each device has a different distance to the
listening point. The effects of the driver offsets are increased by
the nearfield listening conditions, so when you are very close to
a speaker system, vertical head movements significantly affects
the sound. These problems are minimized if the woofer and
tweeter are stacked vertically, so we advise to put always EIKON
monitors in vertical position: in this way the mix
engineer can have the widest range of
movement in the horizontal plane without
significant changes in the acoustic response.
In order to obtain the smoothest and most
consistent sound with a good stereo image the
speakers should be placed so the position of the
listener and the two speakers form an
equilateral triangle. The distance between the
two monitors should be roughly the same as the
distance between one monitor and the listener.
The speaker axis (shown on the diagram) should
be aimed at the point of the furthest rearward
listening positions, as indicated by the two
heads on the diagram.
For the vertical axis you have to aim the
speakers at your ears level, trying to avoid the
first arrival reflection of the mixing console or
DAW desk: very practical in this case is the use
of nearfield monitor insulators (PROEL ISOBLOK)
and stands (PROEL KP MONITOR STAND).

10
STEREO SETUP WITH SUBWOOFER
EIKON 10S subwoofer includes a built-in crossover and amplifier, so you only need the appropriate hook up
cables to integrate it into the nearfield monitor system.
In a STEREO setup we recommend the use of the built-in high-pass filter for filtering the full-range monitors:
hook the left and right XLR outputs of the subwoofer to the corresponding line-level inputs of your powered
full-range monitors.
A properly set up subwoofer system extends the bass response of the main monitors without exaggerating
the bass response in the room. Improper set up may cause an exaggeration of bass response, which in turn
may cause the engineer to mix in less bass energy than desired.
Bass frequencies are largely non-directional, nonetheless the subwoofer's placement in the room is very
important: for example, placing the subwoofer close to a wall or in a corner generally increases the amount
of bass heard in the room. We suggest to place the subwoofer always on the floor, keeping it away from the
walls: if it must be placed close to one wall consider to reduce its level. The distance of the subwoofer from
the listening position can be adjusted to produce the optimum balance of bass in the system.
Since the subwoofer's output will interact with the other monitor speakers in the room, it is important to
consider the subwoofer and nearfield speakers as a total system. The subwoofer’s crossover frequency and
level need to be matched with the nearfield monitors, so to simplify this operation the following table
suggests the best setting for a full EIKON system.
To check if the levels and other parameters are correctly set and if the sub-woofer is properly placed, turn on
the complete monitoring system and play well-known songs of different genres: a good setting often requires
a long time of listening. When your preferred songs all play well and the subwoofer placement produces the
best balance and quality of bass in the system, then probably that is the best setting for your room/speaker
combination.

5.1 SURROUND SETUP
The 5.1 configuration has been standardised
for surround sound applications, including
cinema, television and other consumer
applications.
The front three channels are intended to be
used for a conventional three-channel stereo
sound image, while the rear/side channels
are only intended for generating supporting
ambience, effects or ‘room impression’. The
five channels are full-bandwidth, so they all
contain low frequencies.
The ‘.1’ component is a dedicated low
frequency effects (LFE) channel, a separate
sub-bass channel with an upper limit
extending to a maximum of 120 Hz. The LFE
channel is not the "subwoofer channel” and it
is not intended for conveying the low
frequency component of the main channel
signals, but it is intended to be used for
special low frequency content that requires
greater sound pressure levels and headroom
than cannot be handled by the main
channels.

BASS MANAGEMENT
“Bass Management” is a term that refers to the practice of using a subwoofer to reproduce the bass
frequencies of the main channels. If you don't use large full-range speakers, which is the case of most of the
home theater systems, the Bass Management (usually enabled by selecting “Small Speakers” from a speaker
setup menu in home-theater receivers) can reroute the bass from the five full-range channels (typically
below 80Hz) and from LFE channel to the sub-woofer, where it can be reproduced best.
Bass management is used in practically every consumer home-theater system, therefore audio engineers
must be sure that their studio monitoring systems is able to reproduce sufficient low frequencies, so they can
avoid recording undesirable subsonic information, such as pops, air conditioner rumble, traffic noise,
footsteps, etc. These subsonic noises will be masked by the natural high-pass filter of near-field monitors with
a response that goes down only as low as 40 or 50Hz and they may not be heard in the studio. However,

13
since virtually all home-theatre systems use subwoofers with bass management, consumers will hear these
infrasonic problems at high volume levels in their home.
Bass management effectively extends the low-frequency response of near-field monitors down well into the
25 to 40Hz range (depending on the subwoofer used), allowing the engineer to recognize infrasonic noises
and take evasive action in the studio in order to avoid them.
