UNPACKING INSTRUCTION
CAUTION! Carefully unpack the box upon receipt. Check the contents to ensure
that all parts are present and have been received in good condition. Notify
the shipper immediately and retain packaging material if any parts appear
damaged from shipping or the package itself shows signs of mishandling. Save
the package and all packaging materials. If the product must be returned, it
is important that the product is returned in the original factory box and
packaging.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after
transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation
water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has
reached room temperature.
OPERATION
When all connections to the amplifier are made, turn all rotary controls down
and switch on the power. Turn BASS and TREBLE controls to the 12 o’clock
position (pointing straight up) and turn the MASTER volume control up slightly
for testing.
Ensure a signal is being fed to one of the inputs and gradually increase the
volume level until the output is heard through the speakers. Turn up the
MASTER volume to the required volume level.
Note: The initial test can be done using the built-in USB/SD audio
player.
In addition to MASTER volume controls, there are BASS and TREBLE controls to
adjust the tone of the overall output. At the 12 o’clock position, these
controls are applying no effect to the signal (no boost or cut). Moving the
BASS control clockwise boosts the low frequencies in the audio, whilst moving
it anticlockwise will cut these low frequencies. Likewise, moving the TREBLE
control clockwise boosts the high frequencies in the audio, whilst moving it
anticlockwise will cut these high frequencies. Adjust these EQ controls to
suit the type of audio signal or compensate for the room acoustics.
