AYRA PRO Monitors provide a universal 90-240V internal power supply.
On the rear panel there are also the input and output level controls.
Insert the power connector and the signal connector, but before turning on the speaker,
make sure to select the power supply voltage corresponding to that of the country where
the device is used, and that the volume control is at minimum on both the speaker and
the sound source connected to the speakers; it is also important that the sound source is
already on when the speaker connected to it is turned on.
These two precautions will prevent you from: first turning on the speakers in the presence
of strong input signals (avoiding causing damage to the speaker itself but above all to
people in front of it), also avoiding the annoying “bump ”caused by the switching on of
the audio equipment upstream of the speakers. In fact it is a good rule that the amplified
speakers and amplifiers in general are always the last equipment to be turned on and the
first to be switched off at the end of their use.
At this point you can turn on the speaker and raise the level control up to the marker line
on the scale between “0” and “MAX”, and then correct the level as needed.
