The First. The Finest. The Future.

More than twenty years ago Marty Garcia, founder and CEO, developed the first personal

monitor earphones and systems. It is Future Sonics dedication to the performers, attention

to service and “hands on” approach that continues to provide the finest products delivering

confidence and consistency to every application. Future Sonics and the Ear Monitors®

Brand were founded on the idea that you can promote long and healthy careers by relieving

vocal fatigue while reducing stage volume and in turn preserving the musicians’ hearing.

This idea paired with excellence in audio quality and unparalleled service carries over into

all aspects of the company and its future products.

Future Sonics designs and manufactures its own award-winning MG line of dynamic drivers

used in all of its earpieces. This proprietary miniature full range speaker technology is what

sets Future Sonics apart from other personal monitor and earphone companies. Their

dedication to the finest audio quality, reliability and personal service continues to shine for

major tours, venues, artists, engineers, broadcasting and houses of worship worldwide.

Thank You!

We appreciate your business.

ProtectYourEars

Extreme Volume and/or prolonged exposure to excessive SPL’s (Sound Pressure

Levels) can cause serious and permanent damage to your hearing.

Always turn the volume all the way down on any device before connecting your Ear

Monitors®. Once connected gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening

level.

Do not use Ear Monitors® in environments where a failure to hear surrounding sounds

could be dangerous, such as while driving, biking, walking on roadways or operating

machinery.

Consult a physician, audiologist or hearing specialist if you have problems hearing, wax

build-up or any discomfort after use.

Used properly, Future Sonics Ear Monitors® dynamic audio quality may help reduce

hearing and vocal fatigue by allowing you to listen at lower volumes while blocking out

harmful ambient noise. Future Sonics is committed to Hearing Health Awareness and is

a proud sponsor of H.E.A.R.® (Hearing Education and Awareness for Rockers). For

H.E.A.R. applauds Future Sonics’

Ear Monitors® as a significant step

forward in hearing conservation due

to increased clarity across a broad

range that measurably reduces the

need for excessive amplification.

GettingStarted

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3

GettingStarted

First things first, identify your Right & Left Ear Monitors®. For sets that are CLEAR take a look at your

serial numbers; serial numbers on your Right ear are RED and on your Left ear BLUE. For all other

colors your serial numbers will end with an R for Right and an Lfor Left. Easy enough. Additionally

your Ear Monitors® cable is marked w/ a Red Dot on your Right connector & a Blue Dot on your Left

connector for proper polarity.

Having identifed the RT& LT Ear Monitors®, gently insert your EM (See Step 1) into your ear & turn

slightly backwards until it seats nice & snug, locking tightly behind the helix of your ear (See Step 2) to

create a good seal. Gentle adjust the EM’s until you feel they are properly & comfortably seated in

your ears.

Once seated properly, guide the Ear Monitors® cable up over the top of your ear and behind your

head, arching the Memory Wire until comfortable. Adjust the slider up behind your head (See Step 3)

to keep the cable and ears in place.

BEFORE PLUGGING IN always make sure the output volume on your audio source is turned all the

way down. Once plugged in slowly increase the volume to a comfortable listening level.

I do not hear the Bass response?

Fit is essential to the successful use of our products. Most often, if you are missing the bass, you do not have

the proper seal. With our custom products we guarantee fit for 30 days from the date of purchase. We’d also

suggest connecting to other devices and audio players to be certain that it is not a problem with the audio

source. If the problem persists please contact FS.

I do not hear the Audio...
