Frequently Asked Questions - CA3908 Cyber Acoustics

How to connect the speakers to a computer?

Plug the green plug of the cable into the computer's audio output (green jack), the gray plug into the 'To Left Speaker' jack on the back of the subwoofer, then the red plug into the DIN jack on the subwoofer. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet.

How to connect a game console?

Use a 'Y' adapter (not included) with two RCA outputs. Connect the red and white RCA plugs to the console's corresponding outputs, then follow the same steps as for a computer with the supplied cable. Turn off the console before connecting.

What to do if the speakers do not turn on?

Check that the power switch is in the 'ON' position and the blue LED is lit. Make sure the AC adapter is properly plugged into a working wall outlet.

Why is there no sound?

Check that the speaker is turned on, the volume is set to an audible level, and the plugs are inserted into the correct jacks. Test with another audio source (MP3 player) to determine if the problem is from the computer.

The sound is distorted, how to adjust?

Lower the main volume to between 1/4 and 1/2 of its range. Also adjust the computer's volume. If the problem persists, set the main volume control to the middle and adjust using the speaker controls.

How to use headphones with these speakers?

Plug your headphones into the headphone jack on the wired remote. The speaker sound will be automatically muted. Use the main volume control to adjust the headphone volume.

How to adjust the bass?

Use the control marked 'Bass vol' on the wired remote. Turn toward you to increase bass, away to decrease.

How to clean the speakers?

Use a soft dry cloth. Never use solvents such as wax, bleach, benzene, or ammonia.

Where to place the speakers for best sound?

Place the satellite speakers on either side of your audio source, as far apart as possible. The subwoofer should be placed on the floor, near a wall.

What accessories are included in the package?

The package contains two satellite speakers, one subwoofer, an audio cable, an MP3 stand, an AC adapter, and a user guide.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Symptom Solution
Speaker System Will Not Power On.	Power button is not turned on. Slide to turn on and check for blue LED indicator light to come on.
	Verify the AC power cord is plugged into the wall outlet
	Check if the wall outlet or power strip you are using is actually getting power.
Speaker Does Not Produce Sound.	Verify the speaker is getting power. Check above steps.
	Make sure the volume is turned up to audible listening level.
	Verify that all cables are plugged into the correct jacks.
	Many times users believe the speakers are not working, when in fact they are having trouble with the sound source. The most common problem when connecting to a computer sound card is the connections are incorrect. Make sure you are connected to the audio output jack from your computer sound card. Many times it has a green color to it. Also, make sure your media device or CD/DVD device is playing and the volume settings are turned up and not muted.
	If you still have problems, disconnect the speaker source cable from your computer and connect to a MP3, CD player, or anything else with a 3.5mm headphone jack. If your speakers work on this other source, you know the speakers are okay and the problem lies with your computer or the connections.
Sound Is Distorted.	Turn the volume down 1/4 to 1/4 levels. If this does not work, also check the computer operating system volume level and decrease it if necessary.
	Adjust the computer's master volume control by balancing the volume until it's centered, then adjust the volume levels on the speakers.
