SETTING UPYOUR MINI SYSTEM
Carefully unpack the speakers and amplifier taking care not to scratch any component.
Ensure that the switch on the back of the amplifier is set to the correct voltage for your territory, if you
are unsure what the correct setting is, please contact yourAuthorised Dealer. Please ensure that you
use the correct fuse type in the pop out tray beneath the mains input socket on the back
of the mini amplifier:
~230V FUSE T800mAL/250V
~115V FUSE T1.6AL/250V
Undo and lay out the cables and connect up the speakers following the labels on the rear of the amplifier
and the diagrams contained in the booklet.
The amplifier will take inputs with a standard phono lead (Phono Input) or a 3.5mm mini stereo jack lead
(3.5mm stereo input socket).
Do not plug an input signal into any of the speaker or bass outputs as this will damage the
amplifier!
When all the connections are made,check that the volume is set at minimum and then turn the amplifier
on and carefully adjust the volume.The relative Bass level can then be adjusted with the potentiometer
(Bass Level Adjust) on the rear panel.
The speakers can be set up in a variety of ways but will need some space between them for a good
stereo image. They are also fairly directional and will sound at their best when directed towards the
listening position.
