4INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your time and interest in the EVE Audio product range.

EVE Audio is a loudspeaker manufacturer based in Berlin, Germany, that

specializes in the development and design of unique studio monitors.

The use of rst-class components is our highest priority because we rmly

believe this is the only way to manufacture rst-class products.

You have chosen a loudspeaker from our Silvercone SC series. The SC3070

monitor was conceived as three-way system. Because of its asymmetrical

design, the SC3070 monitor is available in left speaker and right speaker

versions.

The mid-range driver guarantees an excellent denition in the mid

frequencies, which raises this three-way system to a completely dierent

listening level. The woofer reproduces the low-frequency range, while the

mid-range driver and tweeter cover consecutive ranges.

The SC3070 studio monitor features EVE Audio’s Air Motion Transformer

taken from the RS series. The mid-range driver and the woofer sport a

high-quality chassis developed by EVE Audio. The lot is completed by the

implementation of high-resolution DSP technology plus powerful and

ecient ampliers.

We wish you a lot of fun with your EVE Audio monitors. If you have any

questions regarding our products, do not hesitate to contact your nearest

dealer or get directly in touch with us... We will be more than happy to help

you out!

All the best from Berlin.

The EVE Audio Team

Powering On

QUICK START

2. QUICK START

If you already have experience with studio monitors, the Quick Start guide

ought to be more than enough to get you started.

For unexperienced users we recommend reading the whole user’s manual

in order to prevent any misuse.

2.1. First Steps

Check the package components (loudspeaker, user’s manual, power cord,

grille, rubber feet).

Check the voltage setting (see “Mains Voltage Selector”).

Check the setting of the DIP Switches (variable).

2.2. Speaker Connection

Connect one of the monitor inputs on the rear side (RCA or XLR) to the line

output of a playback source, for instance, an audio interface. The output

level should be as low as possible.

2.3. Powering On

Engage the Power switch on the rear side of the loudspeaker to turn it on

or o.

The LEDs around the Volume control on the front panel will light up

clockwise. If the LED on the right end is dimly lit, this indicates that the

loudspeaker is in Standby mode. Press the Volume control to turn the

loudspeaker on. If you turn the Volume control counter clockwise until the

LED on the left end lights up dimly the loudspeaker will be muted.

Increase the output level on the source device until the LED ring starts to

blink, then reduce the output level a bit. The maximum operating level for

the input (i.e. the analog to digital converter) is now set optimally. To set

the desired listening volume use the Volume control on the loudspeaker.

The LED ring indicates the volume setting. If the LED ring starts to blink,

reduce the output level on the signal source.

First Steps

6OPERATION

3. OPERATION

3.1. First Steps

Rear Connections & DIP Switches

Check the package components (loudspeaker, user’s manual, power cord,

grille, rubber feet);

Check the voltage setting (see “Mains Voltage Selector”).

Check the setting of the DIP Switches (variable).

Connections: there are two input connectors on the rear side. These allow

the connection of balanced sources with XLR connectors or unbalanced

sources with RCA connectors.

•Pin assignment XLR: 1= Shield, 2= hot (+), 3= cold(-).

•Pin assignment RCA: Center conductor= Signal, Ring= Shield.

Both analog inputs can be used simultaneously, whereby the signals are

summed.

Depending on the setting of the Max. Input DIP switch on the rear panel,

the maximum level of the source signal should not exceed +7dBu or

+22dBu (see Max. Input). If the input is overloaded the LED ring will start

blinking.

OPERATION

3.2. Left/Right Position

The SC3070 is a 3-way studio monitor with asymmetrical design. For this

reason, it is available in two dierent versions for the right side and the left

side of the stereo eld.

Best left/right SC3070 position for an optimal stereo eld

For the right side of the stereo eld, choose the SC3070 version whose

woofer is on the right-hand side. For the left side of the stereo eld, choose

the SC3070 version whose woofer is on the left-hand side. In other words,

the tweeter of each monitor should be placed on the inner side of the

stereo eld. This setup reduces the impact of reecting surfaces between

the tweeters.

In a narrow room, you may place the tweeters on the outer side of the

stereo eld in order to extend the width of the soundscape. However this

might aect your ability to perceive the position of the signals in the sound

eld because of the increased reections generated by the side walls.

3.3. The Grid

8OPERATION

In order to protect the tweeter, your EVE Audio monitors are supplied with

a metal grid, which has no impact on the sound. The grid is attached to the

tweeter by means of magnetic attraction.

Be careful not to damage the folded tweeter diaphragm when placing

the grid: Hold the grille with your ngers parallel to the front side of the

monitor. The perforated hexagon must exhibit two horizontal sides. Make

sure that the grille remains parallel to the front side.

Draw the grille close to the tweeter.The tweeter’s magnetic eld will attract

and x the grille, which can always be adjusted later if needed.

3.4. Operating Modes

Standby mode | Volume mode (-10dB) | Settings menu (Low Filter @ -2dB)

3.5. Powering on/off: Standby Mode

Press and hold the control three seconds in order to put the monitor in

Standby mode. The volume will decrease gradually while the LED ring

lights up once around the Volume control. Afterwards, the LED on the right

end will remain dimly lit and the power consumption is reduced to 1 watt.

!To exit the Standby mode press briey the Volume control once again. The

level will increase gradually.

3.6. Volume Mode

•Level Adjustment

The maximum input level for balanced (XLR) and unbalanced signals (RCA)

is +7dBu or +22dBu, depending on the position of the Max. Input switch

on the rear panel (see DIP Switches). Higher levels produce distortion due

to the overloading of the analog to digital converter.

Given that some professional studio devices can produce in excess of

+22dBu, the LED ring will start blinking whenever the AD converter is

Press the control once to enter the Settings menu. Here you can set four

dierent lters (High, Mid, Desk, Low), as well as the LED ring’s behavior.

The LED of the currently active function will blink.

Turn the control to choose the lter or LED mode desired. The blinking

LED indicates the function selected, while the steady-on LED indicates the

value assigned to that function.

Press the control to conrm your selection. The blinking will stop once the

selection is conrmed.

Turn the control to adjust the lter or the LED behavior.

When you are satised with the setting, press the control again to go back

to the Settings menu. You can then select and edit another function.

!To exit the Settings menu press and hold the control for three seconds or

simply wait 10 seconds. The loudspeaker will then return automatically to

the Volume mode.

3.8. Filters

The lters of the EVE Audio monitors were specially developed to oer you

the possibility of adjusting your monitoring system to the characteristics

of your room. These lters help correct the alterations to the frequency

response produced by the room acoustics and listening distance. Do bear

in mind that correcting bad room acoustics with lters will only achieve

average results. In any case, you should try to use the lters as little as

possible.

The Low-Shelf Filter allows you to boost or attenuate frequencies below

300Hz in 0.5dB steps. Use this lter whenever the acoustics of your room

cause problems in the low frequency range.
