• You must peel off the insulation (covering) from the tip of the speaker cable to
expose the conductor.
• Check the connections; make sure that left and right (L, R) and polarity (red: +,

unnatural and the low frequencies may be insufficient. There might not be any
sound at all if connections are incorrect.
• Take care that the conductors of the speaker cable do not touch each other, and that
the conductors do not touch any other metal part. Such conditions can damage this
unit or the speakers.
• Use only the supplied speakers. Using other speakers may result in unnatural sound.
• If you’re using this unit nearby a CRT display and you notice distorted color or
