ENGLISH
Hint! (Power supply)
It is essential that you check that the device voltage matches your local mains voltage. It
is highly recommended that you fuse your mains socket with a residual current circuit
breaker (FI).
If you do not use your device for a longer period of time, disconnect it from the power
supply in order to minimize danger. The same applies to storm conditions such as
thunderstorms, floods, etc.
Hint! (Unwanted odours)
A new product can sometimes lead to unwanted odours. This reaction is normal and
disappears after a few minutes.
Hint! (Damage to loudspeaker diaphragms due to feedback)
Avoid feedback by keeping the microphone away from activated speakers that are
simultaneously listening to the signal. If necessary, turn off the speakers completely.

Power supply / power cable:
The cable must not be laid near hot objects such as heaters or radiators.
Avoid excessive buckling and other damage.
Do not place heavy objects on the cable.
Make sure that nobody can step on it or trip over it and do not roll any objects over it.
Pay attention to the mains voltage prescribed for this device (see back of speaker).
Only the enclosed mains cable may be used.
The condition of the electrical plug must be checked regulary. If necessary, remove any
dirt or dust that has accumulated on it.
Avoid placing on sloping surfaces to prevent accidental slippage/dropping.
Only suitable sockets with safety earthing may be used. Improper or missing grounding
is associated with the risk of electric shock.
Please do not open:
The loudspeaker does not contain any user serviceable parts.
Do not attempt to disassemble the unit, remove or modify and internal components.
If the loudspeakers do not work, discontinue use and have it checked by a qualified

liquid may enter the opening of the unit.
Hints for switching on/off:
Always switch on the loudspeakers last in the chain of your workplace and switch them off first.
Switching on/off devices in the signal chain (computer, mixing console, etc.) generates impulses
that affect the membrane when the loudspeakers are activated (often perceived as crackling).
These impulses can cause serious damage to the diaphragm.

ENGLISH
Connection instructions:
It is recommended to use XLR or balanced jack cables when connecting both speakers to the
mixer/audio interface, etc. Cinch connections are also possible, but they do not provide sufficient
protection against possible interferences or interferences and are noticeable in a negative way
(noise, humming).
Feedback:
Avoid feedback by keeping microphones away from the activated speakers that are
simultaneously listening to the signal. If necessary, switch off the speakers completely.
Installation:
Always check the device for damage before use. Use the original packaging or suitable transport
or storage packaging to protect the product optimally from influences such as dust or moisture,
etc. when not in use
Commissioning:
All connections of the device should be made before switching on. Only use high-quality,
undamaged and as short cables as possible for the connections.

Symptom
Troubleshooting
No tone
Check the cable for damage (cuts, extreme kinks,
etc.) and replace if necessary.
Check the wiring. Connectors must be fully
inserted and snap into place!
Slowly increase the volume of both speakers using
the volume control on the rear panel.
Check the input/output section in the audio
settings of your operating system or in the DAW
(digital audio workstation) you are using. The
correct outputs of your audio interface should be
selected here. Please read the corresponding
manual of the software/operating system.
Dull sound/height-heavy sound
Check the HF (High Filter) settings on the back of
the speakers. This attenuates or amplifies higher
frequencies and serves to adapt to the room.

ENGLISH
