How to Replace the remote’s battery
Speaker placement and listening environment
Speaker placement
Put the main speaker on the right and the passive speaker on the left When
listening to music, the distance between the two speakers should be over 70cm
so that a natural sound field can be achieved. Adjust the angle and distance
of the speakers until optimal sound accuracy and imaging are achieved.
In order to get
the best sound, not only do we recommend using high-quality components to
match the speakers, but also a good listening environment. The placement and
the size of the listening area will influence the sound quality.
A few simple suggestions to optimize your listening environment:
a. Carpet the floor to avoid the sound reflection.
b. Decorate the wall with a cloth or other sound-absorbing materials to
improve sound quality.
c. Use a thick curtain to avoid the sound reflected by glass windows.
Speaker Connections
The M200MKIII+ is built in with an amplifier. On the back there are power outlet, audio in, and volume control. The connection diagram is as below:

Active speaker connection to passive speaker
Insert the end of the speaker connection cable into the SPEAKER OUT of the active speaker and the SPEAKER IN of the passive speaker. Make sure the pins are fully inserted to avoid loose connection. -
Connecting with a computer or another sound source
Insert the RCA connectors of the RCA to 3.5mm cable into the audio input terminals of the active speaker, red to red and white to white. Then insert the 3.5mm stereo jack to the stereo output of your computer. -
Connecting the power
Make sure the power switch is off, and plug the power cable into the power outlet.
Notice:
a. Please make sure the power is switched off when connecting the power cable.
b. The speaker is built-in with an amplifier. Please do not stuff the rear
port with anything. It can destroy the amplifier.
c. Make sure connections are firm to avoid influencing sound quality.
d. The quality of cables will directly influence the sound quality. We suggest
using the original cable.
Listening
- Turn on the computer or other sound source, and turn on the volume control to a minimum(0).
- Play the MP3, or CD, and turn up the volume gradually.
- You can use the three function knobs on the back panel to adjust the volume to meet your listening habit.
Notice:
a. Turn off the power when you are not going to listen.
b. We suggest using a high-quality sound card so that it can produce the best
possible high-fidelity sound. Using a poor-quality sound card will degrade the
sound quality.
Break-in
Break-in refers to the aging period for the speakers to where they perform best acoustically. Upon purchase, the speakers are not broken-in. A period ranging from 48-400 hours of usage is recommended before both the amplifier and speaker drivers behave optimally.
Maintenance
The M200MKIII+ can be operated under normal conditions without requiring any maintenance. Avoid using any corrosive liquids or gasses on the surface of the cabinet or on the speaker drivers. Do not place in high temperatures, moist conditions, or sunshine for long periods of time. For cleaning be sure to use a detergent without any strong chemicals.

Troubleshooting
Problems with the sound quality
a. Please check and make sure all drivers have sound or not? Is there any
problem with the speaker?
b. Please check if the connection cables are firmly connected with the OUTPUT
of the computer sound card or OUTPUT of the line output.
c. Please check if the connection cable is inserted in the right position.
No sound at all
a. Please check if the power cable is connected well and if the power switch
is on.
b. Please check if the signal cable between the speaker and the sound source
is shortcircuited?
c. Please check if the sound source is set up properly.
Only one speaker has sounded
a. Please check the balance controls on the sound source and make sure it is
set to the middle position.
b. Please check the cable between the active speaker and passive speaker is
inserted properly.
