NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
■ Handling and maintenance
• Do not obstruct the hole (bass reflex port) on the back of the speaker unit.
This reduces the quality of the sound.
• Do not use the product in the vicinity of a TV, radio, or other electric products.
Otherwise, the product, TV, or radio may generate noise.
• Do not expose the product to excessive dust or vibration, or extreme cold or heat, in order to prevent
the possibility of unstable operation or damage to the internal components.
• Do not install in locations where temperature changes are severe.
Otherwise, condensation may form on the inside or the surface of the product, causing it to break or deform the wood.
Do not leave condensation on the wood; wipe immediately with a soft cloth.
• If there is reason to believe that condensation might have occurred on the inside, leave the product
for several hours without turning on the power until the condensation has completely dried out, in
order to prevent possible damage.
• Do not touch the speaker driver unit, since it might cause malfunction.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the product, since this might cause alteration or
discoloration.
• Clean the product with a dry and soft cloth. Do not use a chemically infused wiping cloth, chemical
products or the like to clean this product,
as these may cause discoloration or deterioration.
Information

Cables
You’ll need to acquire appropriate cables to connect the HS series monitor speakers to your audio interface or other
source equipment.
• Short, high-quality cables
Use high-quality cables of the shortest practical length. The longer the cable, the more chance there is that noise will
creep in to degrade your sound.
• Balanced cables
Balanced cables are more resistant to noise than unbalanced cables. If you have to use unbalanced cables because
the source equipment only has unbalanced outputs, be sure to use the shortest possible unbalanced cables.
Connectable cables
• XLR type
XLR type connectors are widely used in professional audio equipment and installations. The XLR type connectors
provided on the HS series speakers are primarily intended for use with balanced connections.
Pin 2: hot (+)
Pin 3: cold (−)
Pin 1: ground
Pin 1: ground
Pin 3: cold (−)
Pin 2: hot (+)
• Phone type
Phone type connectors can be used for both unbalanced and balanced connections.
Cables fitted with TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) phone plugs are necessary for balanced connections to the HS series
speakers. The construction of TRS phone plugs is basically the same as stereo phone plugs.
For unbalanced connections, connect standard mono phone plug cables to the HS speaker phone connectors.
Tip: hot (+)
Ring: cold (−)
Sleeve: ground
Tip: hot (+)
Sleeve: ground
TRS phone plugs Standard mono phone plugs
6HS4, HS3 Owner’s Manual
• RCA plugs
You can use the included stereo mini-to-RCA cable. This is an unbalanced connection.
• Stereo mini plugs
Use an audio cable with stereo mini plugs.
Balanced connections
These effectively cancel noise picked up from external sources. Balanced connections
allow for longer cable runs that would probably otherwise result in more noise being
picked up.
Unbalanced connections
Commonly used to connect electronic musical instruments and guitars, etc., to amplifi-
cation equipment. If your cable runs do not extend past one or two meters, unbalanced
cables can probably be used without any problems.

Setting Up for Superior Sound
This product features two speakers: an active (with built-in amplifier) speaker L and a passive speaker R. To monitor the
sound accurately, position the L speaker angled towards your left side and the R speaker angled towards your right side.
Speaker L is marked on the rear panel as “LEFT”.
60°
L R
NOTICE
• Do not set the speakers up with the front side of the baffles facing down.
Keep the following points in mind when setting up your monitor speakers.
■ Position the speakers away from walls or corners
Ideally, the speakers should be located away from walls or corners. In situations where it is not possible to position the
speakers a sufficient distance from walls or corners, the ROOM CONTROL switch can be used compensate for excessive
bass. As you move the speaker closer to walls or corners, a higher compensation setting may be required to achieve nat-
ural sounding response ([0] → [−2] → [−4]).
■ Position the left and right speakers symmetrically.
The left and right speakers should be positioned as symmetrically as possible in relation to the room. In other words, the
left and right speakers should be the same distance from the rear wall and the respective left and right walls.
■ The optimum listening position is at the apex of an equilateral triangle.
For the most accurate sound and balance, position yourself at the apex of an equilateral triangle formed by the left and
right speakers and yourself, with the speakers angled inward so that they’re facing you.
■ Position the tweeters at ear height.
High frequencies are quite directional, so for the most accurate monitoring the speakers should be set up so that the
tweeters are at approximately the same height as your ears when you’re seated at the listening position.

The shape of the plug differs depending on your locale.
Speaker Input and Response Control
1. ROOM CONTROL switch
Adjusts the speaker’s low-frequency response. This switch can be used to compensate for exaerated low-fre-
quency response that can be caused by reflections in some listening environments. Setting the switch to the [0]
position produces a flat frequency response. The [−2 dB] setting attenuates
the range below 500 Hz by 2 dB, and the [−4 dB] setting attenuates the range below 500 Hz by −4 dB.
2. HIGH TRIM switch
Adjusts the speaker’s high-frequency response. Setting the switch to the [0] position produces a flat frequency
response. The [+2 dB] setting boosts the range above 2 kHz by 2 dB, while the [−2 dB] setting attenuates the range
above 2 kHz by −2 dB.
3. ST MINI chassis connector
This is an unbalanced input connector used to plug in a stereo mini-plug cable. Connect your smartphone or other
device here.
4. LINE 2 (L/R) chassis connectors
These sockets are unbalanced RCA input chassis connectors (L/R). Connect devices such as a computer, MP3 play-
er or CD player here. You can use the included stereo mini-to-RCA cable.

HS4, HS3 Owner’s Manual
5. LINE 1 (L/R) chassis connectors
These balanced input combo connectors are compatible with XLR connectors and phone plugs. Connect a line-
level synthesizer, mixer or audio interface here.
6. OUTPUT TO RIGHT SPEAKER
Connect the included speaker cable here to transmit signals from the left speaker to the right speaker.
7. [ / ] (standby/on) switch
Turns the power of this product standby/on. Flip the switch to the [ ] side to turn the power on, and flip the switch to the
[] side to turn the power standby.
NOTICE
• Flipping the [ / ] switch to standby/on repeatedly in quick succession may cause the product to malfunction. Wait at
least five seconds after turning the switch to standby before you turn it on again.
• This product features a built-in protective circuit. Excessive input signals will activate the protective circuit and shut
down the power. If this happens, turn this switch to standby and wait at least three seconds before turning it on again.
• A small amount of electrical current still flows through this product’s circuitry even after you’ve turned the [ / ]
switch to standby (the switch being in the [ ] position). If you are not going to use this product for a long time, make
sure to unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
NOTE
• There is a [ ]/volume knob on the front panel of speaker L, which you must also turn on when you want to use the
speakers.

Connections
WARNING
• Before connecting the product to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Also, before
turning the power of all devices on or off, make sure that all volume levels are set to the minimum.
Failing to do so may result in hearing loss, electric shock, or device damage.
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the product LAST, to avoid
hearing loss and speaker damage. When turning the power off, the product should be turned off
FIRST for the same reason.
Connecting the speakers with the included cable
Connect the red lead to the red terminal and the black lead to the black terminal.

Connecting to an Audio Interface
When connecting an audio interface to HS series speakers, connect the audio interface output connectors directly to
the speakers’ input connectors. Normally you’ll connect to the LINE OUT 1 and 2 (1L and 2R outputs), although that might
depend on the specific audio interface and DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) settings used.
