Troubleshooting
Possible Problem
Decrease the volume
If the iPod original sound source (MP3) is old or of poor quality, distortion
and noise are easily noticed with high-power speakers. Try a different
audio source such as a music CD.
If you are using an external sound source like older generation of iPod
or iPod Shuffle, try reducing the output volume on the device itself. Also
try turning bass boost OFF.
Turn unit off for awhile or lower volume
The signal from the line out jack needs amplification. Use powered
speakers/monitors or other amplified audio device.
