It is important that your monitor system is connected in phase otherwise you will not have the proper low-end
response and stereo image.
Note: It’s fairly easy to identify a monitor that is out of phase just by listening, especially on a pop record. Listen
for the parts of the music that you would expect to be in the center of the mix like kick drum and vocals. If you do
not hear them directly in the center (for instance they sound like they are two signals panned hard right and left)
then you are more than likely listening to an out-of-phase monitor system. (This test won’t work on early Beatles
records where Ringo’s drum kit is panned all the to the right side. Try a Madonna record.)
In order to ensure that your monitor system is in phase, be careful to pay close attention to the positive and nega-
tive marking on the amplifier, wires and Resolv 65 monitors. Make sure that the + terminal of the speaker is con-
nected to the + terminal of the power amplifier and that the - terminal of the speaker is connected to the - terminal
of the power amplifier.
Powering the Resolv 65
The Resolv 65 monitors have a power rating of 100 watts and thanks to the robust drivers and crossover com-
ponents and efficient design, you can use any amplifier with a power rating of 60 to 200 watts. Using a power
amplifier with too low of a power rating can be dangerous since the inputs signal is often clipped in an effort to get
the desired level. Over powering the Resolv 65 can result in catastrophic failure and therefore using any amplifier
with a power rating over 200 watts will void your warranty. For the best results use a quality power amplifier with a
power rating of about 85-100 watts at 4 ohms like the Samson Servo 170.
