Coomber 2241 Operating Instructions

Operating Instructions: 2241

Power from Mains

The Mains ON/OFF switch is located on the side panel. When ON, the
power indicator (1) on the front panel will illuminate.

Amplifier Controls

· Volume control (7)
To protect listeners, always adjust the volume control (7) to
minimum before use - particularly if headphones are being used.
Turn the volume level up once the CD or cassette is playing.
If necessary restart the CD or cassette once the volume level is set.
· Balance Control (8)
The balance control (8) allows fading between the speakers.
Maximum output of both speakers is achieved when the dial is set
to the centre point.
When turned fully left, the right hand speaker cuts out completely
and vice versa - ideal where music is recorded on one track and
voices on the other.
· Treble (9) and Bass (10) Controls
The treble and bass controls allow listeners to adjust the sound
output to suit, enhancing sound quality as required.
· Recording
The position of the amplifier controls will not affect recordings,
regardless of their position.

Tape / CD Selector (5)

The SELECT button (5), should be pushed IN to play CDs or OUT to play
cassette tapes.

External Amplifier Outputs (6)

Use EXT AMP L & R (6) outputs to connect to an external amplifier,
Coomber Booster Speakers or a mixing desk.
The output level is not fixed and may be adjusted by using the
VOLUME and BALANCE controls.
Headphone Sockets (11 & 12)
Connecting Mono or Stereo headphones to the MASTER headphone
socket (12) automatically disconnects the internal loudspeakers.
Up to five more pairs of headphones may be connected to Sockets (11).
Note: If the MASTER socket is not used, then the internal loudspeakers
are not disconnected and sound will be reproduced through the
internal loudspeakers and any headphones connected.
SAFETY: For safety you are advised to use only 600 ohm headphones
such as Coomber 1929 headphones.
Prior to using headphones, always turn the volume down,
fit the headphones and then adjust the sound to a
comfortable level.

Variable Speed Control

(2241/V model only)
The Cassette Recorder and the
CD player have separate speed
controls. This allows the user to
increase playback speed by
10% or reduce it by up to 25%.
CD Player: when not required, the variable speed control should be
turned fully anti-clockwise to the off position. When recording,
variable speed should be switched off - otherwise recording will be
affected by the setting.
Cassette Recorder: cassette variable speed control will be overridden
during recording, regardless of its position. Standard speed is attained
when the dial is set in the centre position (as shown above).
Radio Mic Interference: the use of radio microphone systems while CD
variable speed is switched on may cause some interference.
