The people at Cambridge SoundWorks hope you enjoy
your new high-performance SoundWorks Radio 730.
Your new radio has great FM stereo sound and plays
useful AM band stations. It stores 16 FM station
presets along with 8 AM station presets. The large
32-character display and full-function remote makes
radio operation easy from across the room.
The SoundWorks Radio 730 will also display Radio
Data Service (RDS) FM station text.
An automatic dimmer function reduces display bright-
ness in dark rooms while maintaining good legibility in
bright light. An internal long-life power cell maintains
the current time during a power outage. By inserting a
9V battery (not supplied), a user ensures that a previ-
ously activated wakeup function will work even during
a power outage.
A front auxiliary input lets you quickly connect a
portable audio source (MP3/CD/cassette player). The
rear auxiliary input lets you connect a stationary audio
source like a component CD player. A Record Output
lets you send the current audio program signal to other
devices.
A convenient JOG button lets you select from a variety
of secondary adjustments (Bass and Treble, Snooze
time and Text display modes, among others).

Remove the SoundWorks Radio (See A) from its pro-
tective polybag and place it in your preferred location.
The Radio’s Tone alarm and Subwoofer outputs will be
reduced if the Radio is placed on a compliant, soft
surface.
Connect the AM antenna (See B): To prepare the
antenna (1), fold the base (2) and snap it into place
(3). Position the AM antenna (4) in any out-of-the way
position, preferably at least 8 inches apart from the
Radio. Insert the AM Antenna’s miniplug into the
Radio’s rear panel minijack marked AM ANTENNA (5).
Rotate the AM antenna to achieve the best signal for
individual AM stations.
Connect the power cord by inserting
the SoundWorks Radio’s AC plug
into a convenient outlet.
The AC cord is also the Radio’s primary FM antenna. It
will function better if at least 50% or more of it’s length
follows a straight line (See C). Check to make sure the
FM antenna switch on the rear panel of the Radio
enclosure is in the “INTERNAL” position (factory
default).
If desired, the external FM antenna can be connected
and used instead of the internal antenna (See D).
Connect the external antenna to the “F”-type con-
necter of the rear panel. Set the FM antenna switch to
EXT (external) .

Setting the Clock
You can adjust the current time whether the Radio is
in Standby or On. Just press the time adjust buttons
(by the symbol) on the right hand side of the
display (See E).
Note: The current time can only be adjusted from the
Radio front panel. The Remote Control can adjust the
wakeup time, but not the current time.
Tone Alarm Backup Battery
For 48 hours of alarm function backup during an AC
power failure, obtain and install a 9 volt battery in the
radio compartment. Release the battery cover, attach
the battery and restore the cover.
If either alarm is set to activate (music or tone wake-
up) and the power fails, the battery sounds the tone
alarm at the appropriate time. Press Power on the
radio to silence the alarm. Remove the battery if the
unit is unplugged for more than 24 hours. Replace the
battery after 30 minutes of emergency tone alarm
operation (See F).
Standby and On
Pushing the POWER button chooses Standby or On
operation (See G).
The Power button can also be used to engage SLEEP
delay operation (See page 8).
Selecting The Radio Bands
1) Pressing the FM 1/2 button selects the FM radio
band and one of two banks of FM station presets.
You can store eight FM stations in the PRESET
bank FM1 and eight different FM stations in
PRESET bank FM2 (See H).
2) If you switch from another mode to FM, the Radio
will return to the last PRESET bank used (from
Standby, from AM operation, or when switching
from an AUX input). Pressing the FM 1/2 button
during FM operation selects the other preset bank.
3) Pressing the AM button selects the AM radio band.
The AM band has one PRESET bank.

Listening To External Sound sources
If you have an external audio source you always want
to keep connected to the SoundWorks Radio, like a
desktop cassette player, connect it to the AUX input on
the rear panel (See L). Press the AUX button on the
front panel or remote control to select this input
(See M).
If you have an external audio program source you
occasionally want to connect to the Radio, like a
portable MP3 player, connect it to the AUX-F input on
the front panel (See N). The AUX-F button on the front
panel or remote control selects this input.
Mixing Input/Record Output
You may want to mix the sound from an audio program
source (computer audio output, for instance) with the
other Radio audio sources (FM, AM, Aux).
Connect this source to the MIXING INPUT on the rear
panel (See O). The program source will be mixed with
the currently selected Radio program source.
The audio source connected to the Mixing Input must
have a level control if you wish to adjust the balance
between the Radio program source and the Mixing
Input audio source.
