Frequently Asked Questions - LX4 M-AUDIO

How do I connect the LX4 speakers to my audio interface?
Use balanced or unbalanced TRS cables to connect the outputs of your audio interface to the corresponding TRS inputs on the subwoofer rear panel (Left, Right). For a 2.1 setup, connect only the L and R inputs. For 5.1, also connect SL, SR, C, and LFE inputs. Ensure the LX4 power is off and volume is turned down before connecting.
What is the ideal placement for the satellite speakers?
Position the left and right speakers and the listener to form an equilateral triangle. Place the tweeters at ear level. Keep the speakers vertical (woofer on bottom). Avoid obstacles and reflective surfaces like glass or metal near the speakers.
How do I set the subwoofer volume and master volume?
Use the Sub Volume control to match the subwoofer output to the satellites. Then use the Master Volume to adjust the overall listening level. The Power/Protect LED will turn green when on; orange indicates protection mode, which reduces output by 12 dB.
Can I use the LX4 system with a game console?
Yes, you can connect a game console to the LX4 via its audio outputs. Use TRS or TS cables to connect the console's line-level outputs to the subwoofer TRS inputs. The LX4 accepts unbalanced signals as well. Ensure the console's volume is set appropriately.
What should I do if the Power/Protect LED turns orange?
Orange LED indicates the protection circuitry has activated due to overdriving, excessive heat, or other abnormal conditions. Reduce the volume immediately and check for shorted speaker wires or blocked ventilation. Allow the system to cool down. If the condition persists, contact M-Audio support.
How do I upgrade from 2.1 to 5.1?
Purchase the LX4-5.1 Expander package, which includes three additional satellite speakers (Center, Surround Left, Surround Right) and speaker wires. Connect the extra speakers to the corresponding speaker output terminals on the subwoofer (SL, SR, C). Use the additional TRS inputs for surround and center channels.
What type of speaker wire should I use?
Use the included speaker wires for initial setup. They are spring-type terminals that accept bare wire. For best results, use 16-18 AWG wire with banana plugs or bare ends. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
Can I place the subwoofer anywhere?
Yes, the subwoofer is non-directional, so it can be placed in a convenient location. However, avoid placing it in corners or against walls to prevent excessive bass buildup. Keep it away from reflective surfaces and ensure the front port is not obstructed.
What are the voltage switch settings?
The rear panel has a voltage-select switch with two positions: 115V (120V) for USA and 230V for most of UK/Europe. Always set this switch to match your local mains voltage before connecting power. Incorrect setting can cause damage not covered by warranty.
How do I clean the LX4 speakers?
Use a dry, soft cloth to gently wipe the cabinet. Do not use any liquids or cleaners. Avoid touching the speaker cones. If dust accumulates on the cones, use a soft brush or compressed air at low pressure. Keep the speakers away from moisture and extreme temperatures.

Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Studiophile Series LX4-2.1 / 5.1 studio nearfield monitor speakers. M-Audio is well known for digital audio interface technology, digital converters, audio preamps and mixers. Now, born from extensive research and development, the Studiophile LX4-2.1 System and 5.1 Expander is changing the concept of studio reference monitoring in 2.1 / 5.1 systems.

The LX4-2.1 System is designed with the option to add the LX4-5.1 Expander package, thereby upgrading to the LX4 Surround System, a 5.1 system for music production or playback of 5.1 music and sound tracks. This feature makes the LX4 system extremely flexible, fitting into all modern digital music production and playback applications.

The LX4 Surround System was designed to overcome the size limitations of conventional studio reference monitors within the digital audio environment. The compact system delivers wide-range frequency response by employing two extraordinary drivers, both of which are magnetically shielded for desktop music production, and a unique crossover and equalization technology, licensed by M-Audio. The LX4-2.1's Subwoofer provides extended low frequency down to 40Hz, making it possible for the LX4 Surround System to use much smaller Satellite Speakers and offer both ultimate convenience for desktop production and highly accurate 40 to 20Khz frequency response range.

Designed and tested by veteran audio engineers to meet your needs in the studio monitoring environment, the LX4 Surround System's goal is focused on delivering pure, original sound without any additional coloration. The LX4 Satellite monitors are self-powered from amplifiers contained in the Subwoofer enclosure, which directly accepts a line level signal from a variety of sources.

For pro engineers at commercial studios to home studio owners, the Studiophile LX4 Surround System sets a new affordable standard in studio monitoring.

Studiophile LX4 Surround System Features

I. Satellite Woofer - the Satellite Speaker's woofer units are 4 inches in diameter with a magnetically shielded mineral-filled polypropylene cone, high-temperature voice coil and damped closed cell foam surround. It is designed to deliver balanced mid- and low-frequency response. Polypropylene is used to react against the input signals accurately, and to deliver even minimal input precisely while minimizing distortion.

  1. Satellite Tweeter - by employing a specially developed 1-inch mylar dome with magnetic shielding, the Satellite Speaker's tweeters can deliver distortion-free original sound and offer extremely natural response. It minimizes reaction time by using a uniquely shaped mylar dome for excellent delivery, and also minimizes resonance by adapting a unique internal damping technology.

  2. Sub-Woofer (LX4-2.1 System) - the Sub-woofer unit is 8 inches in diameter with a specially developed curved profile pulp cone, high-temperature voice coil and damped closed cell foam surround. It is designed to deliver subwoofer sound pressure at very high efficiency with extremely low distortion.

  3. Enclosure - just as other components do, the LX4 Surround System enclosures have an important role to play. In order to provide more stable performance, these enclosures employs a special high-density MDF and unique interior reinforcement designed to absorb vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions.

  4. Network & Power Amplifiers - the LX4 Surround System's active equalization and crossover networks, as well as the power amplifiers housed in the 2.1 Sub-woofer are specially designed for the specific carefully-chosen woofer, tweeter and sub-woofer drivens. The network properly distributes low, mid, and high frequencies to the components in order to reduce distortion and loss of signal, thereby achieving a naturally balanced sound.

In order to generate powerful, ultra-crisp sound, there are six separate power amplifiers inside the LX4-2.1 Subwoofer module. These separately drive the Sub-Woofer, Left, Right, Center and Surround Left and Right speakers in a high-end multiple-amplifier structure. The power delivered to the sub-woofer driver is 60W, while 27W each is delivered to the Satellite Speakers.

  1. Expandable System - LX4-2.1 System is designed with the option to add the LX4-5.1 Expander package, thereby upgrading to a 5.1 system for music production of 5.1 music and sound tracks. The feature makes the LX4 system extremely flexible, able to fit all modern digital music production and playback applications.

I. TRS Inputs: These jacks accept 1/4" connections with either balanced or unbalanced wiring. For balanced wiring, a three-conductor TRS plug is necessary. The input wiring of a TRS connector should be as follows:

TRS TIP - Signal positive (+)

TRS RING - Signal negative (−)

TRS SLEEVE - Signal ground (Shield)

Unbalanced 1/4" wiring can be done with either a two- or three-conductor (TS or TRS) plug. A two-conductor (TS) plug automatically grounds the signal negative input, whereas a three-conductor (TRS) plug, wired unbalanced, provides the option of leaving the negative input open or grounded. We recommend that you ground the unused negative input (this can be done by wiring the ring and sleeve of the TRS plug together).

There are 6 TRS Inputs, as follows:

L - Left Ch. Input R - Right Ch. Input

SL - Surround Left Ch. Input SR - Surround Right Ch. Input

C - Center Ch. Input LFE- Low Frequency Effect Input

  1. Sub Volume: Use the Sub Volume to set the Subwoofer output sound pressure level relative to other output channels as required. Once the subwoofer to satellite balance is achieved, use the Master Volume to control overall listening levels.

  2. Power / Protect. LED: When the power switch is switched to ON, the LED will glow “Green.” When the Protection circuitry of the power amplifiers has turned on because of any abnormal conditions, including overdriving the speakers into heavy clipping for too long, the LED will glow “Orange” and the output level will reduce by 12dB.

  3. Master Volume: Use the Master Volume to set the output sound pressure of all channels from the LX4 system to proper level as required.

  4. Speaker Outputs: (5) spring-type Speaker Output terminals for connecting (5) Channel Amplifier Outputs to all speaker channels, as follows:

L: Use Speaker wire included in the LX4-2.1 package to connect the L channel amplifier output to the Left Speaker.

R: Use Speaker wire included in the LX4-2.1 package to connect the R channel amplifier output to the Right Speaker.

SL: Use Speaker wire included in the optional LX4-3.0 package to connect the Surround Left channel amplifier output to the Surround Left Speaker.

SR: Use Speaker wire included in the optional LX4-3.0 package to connect the Surround Right channel amplifier output to the Surround Right Speaker.

C: Use Speaker wire included in the optional LX4-3.0 package to connect the Center channel amplifier output to the Center Speaker.

  1. Product Label: This label contains the model and serial number information.

  2. Power Receptacle: Accepts a detachable 3-circuit line cord in order to apply AC power to the entire LX4 system.

  3. Power Switch: This switch turns the LX4 system on and off. The "On" position is indicated by a white dot.

  4. Fuse Holder: Holds the external main fuse.

  5. Voltage-select Switch: Provides 2 selections, 115VAC (120VAC) and 230VAC. This switch should be set to match the “house supply” (receptacle) voltage of the country or location in which the speaker is used. The 115VAC (120VAC) setting is correct for the USA, while the 230V setting is correct for most of the UK and Europe.

Note: DO NOT place any obstacles that may block the flow of air in front or between the LX4s monitors. Also remove reflective materials such as glass, mirrors or metal from the monitoring environment. PLACE THOSE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE PATH OF THE SOUND FROM THE LX4s.

Placing the Speakers - LX4-5.1 Expander

Placing the speakers is one of the most important procedures in order to monitor sound accurately. To monitor with the LX4s performing to their maximum capability, an appropriate listening environment and correct placement are required. Please refer to the following for correct LX4-5.1 placement.

I. The Center Speaker - For best directional effect, try to have the center speaker at the same height as the L & R speakers. The front of the center speaker should also be aligned with, or slightly behind the L & R speakers. Avoid having it forward of the left and right speakers.

  1. The SL & SR Speakers - Properly conveying both directional effects and diffuse ambience requires an evenly distributed surround sound field comprising both directional and reflected sound. This is achieved in movie theatres by means of many direct-radiating surround speakers (typically ten of twenty) along the sides and rear of the auditorium. Listening tests have also confirmed that it is the side speakers that contribute the spaciousness or “openness” associated with good surround sound. Theatres use speakers at the rear only because without them, the surround sound field would appear to be in front of, rather than around, those seated in the back rows. In monitoring environments, just two surround speakers, one to each side, are usually enough to achieve proper results. Too much direct sound from the surround speakers can make their location too obvious, or create an earphone-like, “in-the-head” sound image. On the other hand, too much diffusion may disperse the image such that it utterly directionless seemingly everywhere at once. Finding the right balance of direct and reflected sound means considering speaker placement, room design, and the acoustics characteristics of both.

  2. Location - If it is possible, place surround speakers to either side of sitting position.

  3. Height - If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet above sitting position. This helps to minimize localization effects.
  4. Aiming - Aiming surround straight across the room, not down at sitting position, helps create a more open, spacious surround sound field.

Experiment with placement until surround sounds seem to envelop you, rather than coming from behind. As a general rule, do not aim the surround speakers directly at the sitting position.

Remarks: DO NOT place any obstacles that may block the flow of air in front or between the LX4s monitors. Also remove reflective materials such as glass, mirrors or metal from the monitoring environment. PLACE THOSE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE PATH OF THE SOUND FROM THE LX4s.
