Betjeningsvejledning

The Soundstream AF.694 speakers are passive components and require an external amplifier or head unit for operation. Ensure your audio source is properly connected and configured.

• Strømkilde: Tilslut højttalerne til en kompatibel amplifier or head unit. The speakers have a 4-ohm impedance.
• Lydstyrkekontrol: Start with the volume at a low setting on your head unit or amplifier. Gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening level. Avoid excessively high volumes that cause distortion, as this can damage the speakers.
• Lydindstillinger: Juster bas-, diskant- og balanceindstillingerne på din hovedenhed eller amplydoptimerer for at opnå din foretrukne lydprofile.
• Indbrudsperiode: Allow for a break-in period of approximately 10-20 hours of normal listening. This allows the speaker components to loosen up and achieve their optimal sound performance.

Opretholdelse

To keep your Soundstream AF.694 speakers in excellent condition and ensure long-lasting performance, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Rensning: Brug en blød, tør klud til forsigtigt at tørre højttalergitrene og -rammerne af. Undgå at bruge skrappe kemikalier, opløsningsmidler eller slibende rengøringsmidler, da disse kan beskadige materialerne.
• Undgå fugt: Keep the speakers dry. While the materials are durable, prolonged exposure to moisture can affect performance and lifespan.
• Undersøg forbindelser: Periodically check the speaker wire connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion. Loose connections can lead to intermittent sound or reduced performance.
• Beskyt mod direkte sollys: If possible, protect the speakers from prolonged direct sunlight exposure, which can degrade cone materials over time.

Fejlfinding

If you encounter any issues with your Soundstream AF.694 speakers, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

Ingen lyd fra højttalerne:

• Tjek forbindelser: Sørg for, at alle højttalerledninger er korrekt tilsluttet til både højttalerne og amplifier/head unit. Verify correct polarity.
• Check AmpForstærker/hovedenhed: Bekræft, at din amplifier or head unit is powered on and functioning correctly. Check its fuses and settings.
• Kildeindgang: Ensure the correct audio source is selected on your head unit.

Forvrænget lyd:

• Lydstyrke: Reduce the volume on your head unit or amplifier. Distortion often occurs when the audio signal is overdriven.
• Forstærkningsindstillinger: Hvis du bruger en ekstern amplifier, check its gain settings. Too high a gain can cause distortion.
• Højttalerskade: Inspect the speaker cones and surrounds for any visible damage. Physical damage can cause distortion.
• Ledningsproblemer: Check for frayed or shorted speaker wires.

Uneven Sound (One Speaker Louder/Softer):

• Indstillinger for balance/fader: Check the balance and fader settings on your head unit to ensure they are centered.
• Ledningsføring: Verify that the wiring for both speakers is identical and secure.
