and
then start playing music with your chosen music software program.
PLAYING MUSIC VIA BLUETOOTH
You can wirelessly connect LEAK STEREO 130 to a music source via Bluetooth wireless technology . When the Bluetooth is not connected, the indicator light
of
the Bluetooth input flashes. After the Bluetooth is connected, the indicator LED glows steadily.
Open Bluetooth search on your mobile phone or tablet and connect to " LEAK STEREO 130 BT " , if prompted to enter the password, enter "0000 ". When the
connection is successful, the music starts playing. Switch to another input during Bluetooth playback wi ll disconnect after l minute. Switch back to the Bluetooth
input for automatic connection.
To disconnect the Bluetooth:
•
Move the Bluetooth source beyond the communication area.
•
Turn off the connected device or turn off i ts Bluetooth function.
• Hold
press the ► II button of the remote cont rol for 3 seconds to force the cu r ren t Bluetooth connection to be disconnected.
BASS
Turn the bass adjusting knob on t he front panel to increase !clockwise) or decrease !counterclockwise) the low-frequency response. Control
range: -6db
to +6dB.
TREBLE
Turn the treble adjusting knob on the fron t panel to increase !clockwise) or decrease !counterclockwise) the high-frequency response. Cont rol
range: -6db to 6dB.
Note:
The RIM playback characteristic has been incorporated in the LEAK STEREO l 30, as this is the internationally agreed standard. This characteristic does not
take into account
the acoustics of the recordi ng studio, the position of the microphones relative to the art istes, your pickup, your loudspeaker sys t ems, the
acoustics of your room and your particul ar ears! In other words, the play-back characteristic is of use only as an approximation, and it may we ll be necessary
to adjust the final resu lt by us i ng the controls marked as 'BASS' and 'TREBLE'; this is the reason for their presence. When playing LP records 133
113 and
45
r.p. m) made prior to 1955 , for instance, the bass and treble controls maybe u sed to correct differences in t he recording characteristic.
When playing European 78 recrods, the 'TREBLE ' control should, theoretically, be turned to '2 O'Clock'.
Consumer op inion in some co u ntries insists on a magnitu de of available bass boost which, if u sed at maximum, can only result in a travesty of the original
mus ic. We have provided you with an availability of bass boost whi ch you certainly should not need ii your pickup and loudspeakers are moderately good.
It is not possible to obtain true bass from small loudspeaker systems by turning the 'BASS'; control to maximum, though an intermediate setting may be helpful,
particularly when
lis tening at low intensity levels las in an apartment late at night).
BALANCE
The balance knob on the front panel can adjust the sound output balance of the left and right speakers to compensate for an unbalanced sound.
Note:
ii you turn the balance control knob to lull Left or Right, the other channel will be silent.
DIRECT
Press the Direct button on t he front panel of the LEAK STEREO 130 to activate the direct function, and the indicator above t he key will light up. Click to turn
off Direct aga in and the indicator goes off.
The LEAK STEREO 130 will bypass certain ctrcuits w it hin the amplifier design by stopping the power supply to t hese circuitts. It will reduce noise and electronic
in terference !albeit minor) in order reproduce the purest sound as is electronically possible.
Note: bass, treble, and balance cont
rols are not available when direct is activated.
PROTECTION MODE
LEAK STEREO l 30 is protected by a thermal switch which in terrupts t he AC Power supply if t he amplifier is grossly overloaded for a period of time. To restore
operation, simply
press the Standby button on the front panel. It is thus f ul ly protected aga i nst gross overload, short-ci rcuited output etc, but not necessarily
against
ser iously inadequate ventilation.
