IMPORTANT NOTES
If your sound is distorted at high volumes, please refer to the following troubleshooting scenarios:
• 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.
Important:
• With all speakers, an initial "break-in" period is needed to perform at optimal levels. To properly "break-
in" your TransActive Drummer, play an audio source at medium volume for a few hours.
• For best audio quality, avoid using this device in a high RF-radiated environment.
