INTRODUCTION
Since 1907 Electrohome has been developing high fidelity audio products & has been welcomed into homes for generations. One thing that remains the same in our more than 100 year history is our unmatched dedication to design and premium craftsmanship.

Thank you for your purchase of this Electrohome® product.

We hope you enjoy your experience.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
Our speakers have a butyl rubber ring surrounding the cone. The break-in period allows the rubber to loosen and stretch, allowing the cone a larger range of movement, which gives a better sound reproduction. We recommend 10-12 hours of play at moderate volume to achieve this.

   IMPORTANT: Ensure each wire is connected to the same color binding post on each speaker. Positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (-) to negative (-).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is “auto-pairing” and how does it work?
Auto-pairing is a convenient connection feature. If the connected Bluetooth®-enabled device leaves the connection range of the EB30 and returns at a later time, the device will automatically connect. If the device’s Bluetooth® function is disabled and then enabled at a later time, the device will automatically connect as well.
Note: The Electrohome EB30 will only auto-pair to the last device that it was connected to.

How do I change the source on my Electrohome EB30?
Press the Control Knob or use the Source button on the Remote Control. The LED will change to the Source LED color (Blue/Green/Yellow).

Why are my speakers quiet?
Ensure the EQ settings on your source device and app are set to flat. Also ensure Volume Normalization is disabled. If using the EB30 with a turntable, confirm a preamp is enabled or added.

How do I adjust the Bass and Treble on my Electrohome EB30?
Use the Bass and Treble buttons on the Remote Control. The LED will flash as listed below at the minimum, maximum, and middle settings.
