This icon marks information that is critically
important or unique! For your own good, read and
remember them...it is a good idea to pay special
attention to these areas in the Owner’s Manual
marked with the “VERY IMPORTANT” hand icon.
There’s an illustration of a microscope,
so, of course, you’re going to get more
detailed information when you see this
little guy. There are explanations of
features and practical tips listed here.
It’s a good idea to pay attention to text displayed
next to a note icon, as this icon draws attention
to certain features and functions relating to
the usage of the Thump GO.
The following steps will help you set up the Thump GO quickly.
. Make all initial connections with the power switches
OFF on all equipment. Make sure the master volume,
level and gain controls are all the way down.
2. If not using a subwoofer, connect the outputs
from the mixing console (or other signal source)
to the inputs on the rear panel of the loudspeakers.
3. If using a subwoofer, connect the outputs from
the mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs
on the subwoofer, then connect the high pass outputs
from the subwoofer to the inputs of the loudspeakers.
4. Push the line cord securely into the subwoofer’s /
loudspeaker’s IEC connectors and plug the other ends into
grounded AC outlets. The subwoofer/loudspeaker may accept
the appropriate voltage as indicated near the IEC connector.
5. Turn the mixer (or other signal source) on.
6. Turn the subwoofer on (if applicable).
7. Turn the loudspeakers on.
8. Make sure the loudspeaker’s channel gain knob(s)
are set to mic or line.
9. Be sure that the volume of the input is the same
as it would be during normal use.
0. Start the signal source and raise the mixer’s main
L/R fader up to a comfortably loud listening level.
Things to Remember:
• Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods. Please see
the Safety Instructions on page 2 for information on hearing
protection.
• As a general guide, the mixer (or other signal source) should
be turned on first, subwoofers next, and the Thump GO
last. As such, the Thump GO should also be turned o first,
followed by the subwoofers, then the mixer. This will reduce
the possibility of any turn-on or turn-o thumps and other
noises generated by any upstream equipment from coming
out of the speakers.
• Save the shipping boxes and packing materials! You may
need them someday. Besides, the cats will love playing
in them and jumping out at you unexpectedly. Remember
to pretend like you are surprised!
• Save your sales receipt in a safe place.
