Operating the RESOLV 120a
The Ins and The Outs
The RESOLV 120a features both line
level and speaker level inputs and out-
puts so that connection with passive
or active satellites is easy. The PREAMP
LEVEL INPUTS simply pass the line
level signal through to the PREAMP
LEVEL OUTPUTS. You can use the line
inputs and outputs to interface the
RESOLV 120a with active monitors like
the Resolve 65a's. The SPEAKER LEVEL
INPUTS can be connected from the
speaker outputs of a power amplifier,
and then the signal is sent from the
SPEAKER OUTPUTS, which are high-
passed, to passive satellite speakers.
The following section details both
the line level and speaker level con-
nections. The subsequent sections
detail the set-ups for many typical
configurations with both passive and
active monitors. In addition, there is a
detailed cable wiring diagram on page
16.

SPEAKER OUTPUT – The
SPEAKER OUTPUT connectors are
made via 5-way binding posts.
Use these connectors to connect from your external power amplifier speaker output. So, although the connector is
labeled FROM EXTERNAL AMPLIFIER SPEAKER OUTPUT, when using this configuration the connection here is used as
the input signal to the Resolv 120a.

SATELLITE SPEAKER - The SPEAKER OUTPUT connectors are 5-way binding posts. Connect here from your external
power amplifier. Use these connectors to connect to any passive satellite monitors like the Resolv 65's.
8
INPUT (PREAMP LEVEL) – The left and right PREAMP INPUT connectors are made via standard RCA connectors.
They can be used to connect from any line level device such as a mixer.
9
OUTPUT (PREAMP LEVEL) – The left and right PREAMP OUTPUT connectors are made via standard RCA connectors.
They can be used to connect from any active studio monitors such as the Resolv 65a's.
MUTE JACK – The MUTE jack provides a switch closure to activate Resolv 120a's internal mute circuit. By using a
10
standard footswitch that you can buy at your local music store or by making a cable with a switch, or even by wiring
a switch permanently in the mix area, the Resolv120a can be easily turned on and off.
AC INLET – Connect the supplied IEC power cable here. Be sure that the power switch is in the off position when
11
connecting the AC cord.
