How to Avoid Irritating Feedback
The placement of your microphone is critical in avoiding feedback through your Go Party X10 speaker. Never set up your microphone in front of the speaker. Always set up your microphone behind the speaker. When approaching the speaker to make any adjust­ments, we recommend approaching the speaker from the rear and not walking directly towards the front of the speaker.

Functions

1. 3.5mm AUX input
