3 Introduction The Meyer HM-1S S tudio Monitor is a compact, full- range, self-powered reference monitor that employs a concentric tweeter mounting structure to achieve true point-source performance.
4 Power Supplies for Larger Systems If an installation includes more than 10 speakers, or requires several speakers to operate from a single 48 V line, a single, high-output power supply should be considered. The following sections provide current and voltage specifications for the HM-1S s power requirements.
5 audio interruption. In the third, and preferable case, supplies that feature voltage foldback allow brief periods of current-limit without audio interruption; for this reason, we recommend using such supplies. The HM-1S does not require tight voltage regulation and operates down to 35 V although peak SPL values are reduced.
6 HM-1S Speaker Cable The following drawings and procedures are provided as an aid in the event that the speaker cable used to connect the HM-1S to the HM-1S Subwoofer needs to be repaired or extended.
7 HM-1S to HM-1S Subwoofer Cable Connector Assembly Procedure Cable Boot Cord Connector Cable Clamp Housing Contact Pins Coupling Ring Step 1: Feed the end of the cable through the boot, cable clamp housing, and coupling ring in the order and position shown.
8 Subwoofer Performance V erification There are two methods of verifying that the phase relationship between the HM-1S and its subwoofer. One method is free field, the other is a ground plane measurement in half space.
9 This represents a typical response of the HM-1S in free-field environment, on axis at 1 meter. This measurement was performed in the large anechoic chamber at MSLI. Connect the subwoofer and measure the combined response of the system. HM-1S on axis at 1 meter , free field.
10 This represents a typical response of the HM-1S and subwoofer, in phase, in a free field environment on axis at 1 meter. This measurement was performed in the large anechoic chamber at MSLI. This response indicates a complementary phase relationship between the HM-1S and subwoofer.
11 If the subwoofer is out of phase, the combined response will have a significant loss of energy compared to the overall response at around 82 Hz as illustrated below: HM-1S with out-of-phase subwoofer on axis at 1 meter , free field.
12 This represents a typical response of the HM-1S and subwoofer out-of-phase phase, in a free field environment on- axis at 1 meter. This measurement was performed in the large anechoic chamber at MSLI. If your system response indicates a phase reversal please contact Meyer Sound Technical Support for assistance.
13 This represents a typical ground-plane response of the HM-1S, on-axis at 1 meter. Keep in mind that any surface close to the test space can create reflections which will change the response of the speaker. Connect the subwoofer to the HM-1S and measure the combined response of the system.
14 HM-1S with in-phase Subwoofer on axis at 1 meter , ground plane. This represents a typical ground-plane response of the HM-1S and subwoofer, in phase, at 1 meter. This response indicates a complementary phase relationship between the HM-1S and subwoofer.
15 HM-1S with out-of-phase Subwoofer on axis at 1 meter , ground plane. If the subwoofer is out of phase the combined response will have a significant loss of energy compared to the overall response a.
16 Cooling and Fan Installation The HM-1S depends on natural convection to cool the heatsinks that absorb heat from the amplifiers and radiate the heat into the surrounding air space. Natural convection requires free air in back of, and underneath the HM-1S to allow air to flow up over the heatsinks.
17 T o reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the loud- speaker from the AC adapter before installing audio cable. Reconnect the adapter only after making all signal con- nections. Connect the AC adapter to a two-pole, three wire grounding mains receptacle.

Un punto importante, dopo l’acquisto del dispositivo (o anche prima di acquisto) è quello di leggere il manuale. Dobbiamo farlo per diversi motivi semplici:
Se non hai ancora comprato il Meyer Sound HM-1S è un buon momento per familiarizzare con i dati di base del prodotto. Prime consultare le pagine iniziali del manuale d’uso, che si trova al di sopra. Dovresti trovare lì i dati tecnici più importanti del Meyer Sound HM-1S - in questo modo è possibile verificare se l’apparecchio soddisfa le tue esigenze. Esplorando le pagine segenti del manuali d’uso Meyer Sound HM-1S imparerai tutte le caratteristiche del prodotto e le informazioni sul suo funzionamento. Le informazioni sul Meyer Sound HM-1S ti aiuteranno sicuramente a prendere una decisione relativa all’acquisto.
In una situazione in cui hai già il Meyer Sound HM-1S, ma non hai ancora letto il manuale d’uso, dovresti farlo per le ragioni sopra descritte. Saprai quindi se hai correttamente usato le funzioni disponibili, e se hai commesso errori che possono ridurre la durata di vita del Meyer Sound HM-1S.
Tuttavia, uno dei ruoli più importanti per l’utente svolti dal manuale d’uso è quello di aiutare a risolvere i problemi con il Meyer Sound HM-1S. Quasi sempre, ci troverai Troubleshooting, cioè i guasti più frequenti e malfunzionamenti del dispositivo Meyer Sound HM-1S insieme con le istruzioni su come risolverli. Anche se non si riesci a risolvere il problema, il manuale d’uso ti mostrerà il percorso di ulteriori procedimenti – il contatto con il centro servizio clienti o il servizio più vicino.
