Proper use of your headphones

Using your headphones

A note about electronic “bass boost”: Many portable
audio devices have a bass-boost feature which
electronically alters the audio signal (particularly bass
frequencies) sent to the headphone jack. These
bass-boost features are designed to overcome
certain limitations of conventional headphones. Your

TriPort™ headphones have patented technology that

delivers superior full-range sound without the need
for any type of artificial electronic signal coloration.
For the best audio performance, disable the bass
boost on your portable audio device. Leaving bass
boost on may result in exaggerated bass and
potential distortion at loud volumes.

Notice the markings L and R on the headband.

These markings indicate the proper position (L for left
ear, R for right) to ensure proper fit and performance.

Put the headphones on and adjust them so the

headband rests gently on your head and the ear
cushions fit snugly (an effective seal) and comfort­ably around your ears (with your ears completely
inside the cushions).
