IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE LIGHTNING FLASH WITH ARROWHEAD SYMBOL, WITHIN AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE, IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE USER TO THE PRESENCE OF
UNINSULATED “DANGEROUS VOLTAGE” WITHIN THE PRODUCT ENCLOSURE THAT MAY BE OF A SUFFICIENT MAGNITUDE TO CONSITUTE A RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK TO PERSONS.
THE EXCLAMATION POINT WITHIN AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE, IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE USER TO THE PRESENCE OF IMPORTANT OPERATING AND
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE PRODUCT.
WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK
DO NOT EXPOSE THE APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR HUMIDITY
1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (inclu-
ding ampliers) that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two bla-
des with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience recepta-
cles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specied by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate nor-
mally, or has been dropped.

WARNINGS
PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS Read carefully this manual and follow these
precautions before operating the device
Keep this manual for possible future needs
Pay attention not to pour liquids onto the device and do not operate in conditions of excessive humidity
Do not install the device close to sources of excessive heat, do not expose it to direct solar radiation and do not
position it without protection in a dusty environment
Be sure that the main voltage does not exceed the value indicated on the back panel
Do not use the device if the main cable or the plug aren’t in a perfect condition (if necessary, replace it)
If the main cable has to be replaced, the operation must be carried out by qualied personnel. Replace the cable
exclusively with one that is an exact substitute
In order to avoid interference, do not install the device close to power transformers, TV sets, RF transmitters, electric
motors or any source of electric energy
Do not point microphones against speakers: this could generate annoying whistles (Larsen effect) that cause damage
In order to avoid unpleasant and costly inconveniences, use only original connecting cables
To completely disconnect this apparatus from the AC mains, disconnect the power supply cord plug from the AC socket
When cleaning, do not use solvents (e.g. acetone or alcohol). These could damage the external nishing and the
serigraphy
Do not attempt to service this product. In case of malfunction of any part of the system call the nearest technical
assistance centre or a specialized technical centre
For good ventilation, the heat sink should never be covered or obstructed by blankets, sofas or similar furniture. Be
sure also to leave sufcient clearance between the heat sink and any other surface
No source of ames, e.g. candles, should be placed on or near the device
The device should not be exposed to water, even in small amounts. No object containing liquids should be placed on
or near the device
The device should only be connected to a mains socket outlet equipped with protection ground system
When the device is installed, be sure the mains socket and the plug of the mains cable are easily accessible

INTRODUCTION
TIM
TIM is a 600W (350 +125+125) analog amplication system consisting of a compact active subwoofer and
two passive satellites. The former Pocket 1 system has been re-engineered for professional use, featuring
an enhanced design and several new control features, such as a mono/stereo switch, for greater exibility.
The subwoofer is constructed using BJT technology, incorporating a linear power supply for excellent bass
response and efcient stereo effect. Sub levels can be adjusted from -7dB to +2dB. Each satellite contains
a passive crossover featuring a custom coil.
Easy to transport and set up in live performance situations, TIM is ideal for use with acoustic instruments
and in jazz or DJ sets. The system also forms a highly efcient compact PA for use in small to medium
sized venues such as piano bars, gyms, conference rooms or ballrooms.
Insulated padded bags can be separately purchased for the system components, ensuring safe
transportation and storage. TIM is available in wood or anthracite grey nishes.
TOM
TOM is a 1000W (500+250+250) analog amplication system consisting of a compact active subwoofer
and two passive satellites. The former Pocket 2 system has been re-engineered for professional use,
featuring an enhanced design and several new control features, such as a mono/stereo switch, for greater
exibility. The subwoofer is constructed using BJT technology, incorporating a linear power supply for
excellent bass response and efcient stereo effect. Sub levels can be adjusted from -7dB to +2dB. Each
satellite contains a passive crossover featuring a custom coil.
TOM has been specically developed for use in medium to large sized indoor and outdoor venues, providing
powerful coverage for a range of mobile sound reinforcement applications. Easy to transport and set up,
the system is also highly effective for live performance situations, proving ideal for acoustic instrument
amplication.
Insulated padded bags can be separately purchased for the system components, ensuring safe
transportation and storage. TOM is available in wood or anthracite grey nishes
PRACTICAL ADVICE
When you are using an amplied speaker, one of the most important recommendations is to avoid at all
costs a distorted input signal.
In other words, when you are controlling the sound on your mixer (or any other preamplier), you must
avoid reaching saturation level.
In the case of amplied speakers, the arrival of a distorted signal (square wave) may damage the internal
amplier beyond repair, which may in turn damage the loudspeakers.
Correct use of speakers guarantees their long life.

1.8 MONO/STEREO SWITCH
If two TIM/TOM’s are used together, this switch must be set to the MONO position in order to receive only
one signal from the mixer (left or right main output, connected to LEFT input) and send it to both satellites.
If only one TIM/TOM is used, this switch must be set to the STEREO position in order to receive both left
and right signals from the mixer and send each signal to the relevant satellite.
