or amplified loudspeaker such as another BLOCK ROCKER.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Use this troubleshooting guide if: The sound is distorted at high volumes.
•
Input is clipping: Try lowering the input gain or the volume control on your sound source or music instrument.
•
Output is clipping: Lower the main volume level.
•
There is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower the bass level.
This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.
•
The link cable: is being plugged into the instrument or MIC input instead of the RCA line input.
Important: With all large speakers, an initial "break-in" period is needed to perform at optimal levels. To
properly "break-in" your BLOCK ROCKER, play an audio source at medium volume for a few hours.
