Q: 2. Will this work with UCLS mounts and arms?

Q: 3. Hi, is it possible remove the copper-plated case that enclosed the power transformer, in order to change the voltage to 220v? Thank you!

A: No, it would not be advisable to alter this product in that way. Yamaha does make 220v products for regions where that is required. If you are looking for a 220v Yamaha product, you would need to purchase it from a region where the AC power is 220v.

Q: 4. Can I use this with blue Yeti?

A: The Blue Yeti can be mounted to a broadcast arm with the use of the optional Radius II shockmount.

Q: 5. I have an sE X1S mic and shock mount. Is it possible to use the Heil Sound PL2T Overhead arm with them?

A: Yes, the Heil Studio Boom will work with your Se X1S with shockmount.

Q: 6. can i use this speaker with a turnable vinyl system?

A: Probably not directly. The Roland CM-30 does not have phono inputs. You would need to purchase a separate phono pre-amp to put between the turntable and Roland. This would convert the very weak turntable phono output into a line-level signal that you could plug into the aux inputs on the Roland. The exception would be if your turntable has a built-in phono pre-amp so that it puts out a line-level signal (which I believe would be the case if it has USB outputs), but this would be uncommon.

Q: 7. What is the wheel diameter of the casters? And do they have rubber tires or are the wheels hard plastic

A: The Oklahoma Sound Aristocrat Full-Floor Lectern #600 (Mahogany Laminate) BH #OK600M casters are hard plastic. The caster diameters are not published but they appear to be no more than two inches.

Q: 8. Frequency range and frequency response are...unpublished? I'd really appreciate info/ comment about these characteristics - what are the pros/cons, using the Roland CM-30 Cube as studio monitor(s)? Are they flat? & will I need a separate sub?

A: Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not list those specifications. The Roland CM-30 was designed with the traveling musician in mind, and not the studio engineer necessarily, though in a pinch, it can be used for monitoring in the studio. You would be better served with a pair of JBL LSR 305's nonetheless; B&H# JBLSR305. With the use of two monitors, one can have a better stereo image of a stereo mix. The use of a sub is optional and not necessary; though having one is good for reference.

Q: 9. What is the switch on PRO SET 3 and how is it used and when is it being used. Difference between Phase and OUT. Why was no manual included in the box?

A: Heil Proset 3 headphones feature a phase reverse switch. When switched to the OUT position, the polarity will be reversed, providing the listener with a different perceived positioning of sound in their head. This is very helpful to prevent hearing fatigue, during long recording or mixing sessions.

Q: 10. What is the height and width? I'm looking for a box for my dog to hide in during thunderstorms and fireworks.

A: The dimensions are 12.2 x 13.0 x 13.3 inches, so it may be suitable for a very small dog. However, for a larger dog I would recommend something like BH #FI2373 draped over a more spacious box or container to dampen sound.
