How to use

Place the active speaker near a power outlet and the passive speaker at a suitable listening position. Connect source devices using Bluetooth pairing or the desired wired input (RCA/AUX, optical or coaxial). Use the side-panel knobs to adjust treble, bass and volume for on-the-fly tuning, or operate input selection and volume with the wireless remote. For digital sources use optical or coaxial for the best signal quality; for smartphones and laptops use Bluetooth or 3.5 mm AUX as needed.

Recommendations

Position the speakers at ear height and allow some distance from walls for improved bass response. Use optical or coaxial inputs where available for the cleanest audio, and avoid overdriving the speakers at maximum volume for extended listening to preserve clarity and driver life.
