2 Getting Started
We recommend that you:
• Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging
materials for possible future shipment
• Review the contents of this user manual
• Use Kramer high-performance high-resolution cables
Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date
user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware
upgrades are available (where appropriate).
2.1 Achieving the Best Performance
To achieve the best performance:
• Use only good quality connection cables (such as the Kramer BC-2S) to
avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and
elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)
• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils
• Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely
influence signal quality
• Position your Kramer SPK-C411 / SPK-C412 away from moisture,
excessive sunlight and dust
To ensure that you obtain the best sound results, do not open the
housing of the passive speaker or the active speaker.
