DIAGRAM AND PARTS DESCRIPTION
1. Instrument /
Input with Volume Control
(1/4"): This
accepts a 1/4" input such as a
microphone, guitar, or other
musical instrument.
2. iPod/Auxuliary
Volume Control
RCA): This knob controls the
level of the iPod and the RCA
input. This stereo RCA input
can be used to connect a CD,
MP3, or other audio source.
To connect to a portable device
with a 1/8" headphone jack,
you need a standard (1/8" to
RCA) adapter which is NOT
included.
3. Master Volume Control: This
knob controls the master volume of the BLOCK ROCKER.
4. Power Adapter (IEC): Insert the included power cable here to charge the unit. Note that the BLOCK ROCKER
can run off the power adapter while it simultaneously charges the battery. The charge indicator illuminates
when the battery is charging.
5. Voltage Selector*: Set this to the correct voltage for
your location standard.
6. Power ON/OFF Switch: Turns BLOCK ROCKER on or
off. Please note that while BLOCK ROCKER is
connected to a power source, it does not need to be
powered on to charge the battery.
7. Link Output: This 1/4" jack is a stereo line level output
that can be connected to the stereo input of an amplifier or amplified loudspeaker such as another BLOCK
ROCKER.
8. Battery Level Indicator: While the unit is powered ON, these four lights indicate the power left in the battery.
Battery life varies based on volume and usage.
9. iPod Charging Switch: Turn on iPod charging by setting this switch to the "Charge iPod" position.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Use this troubleshooting guide if: The sound is distorted at high volumes.
•
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.
•
The link cable: is being plugged into the instrument or MIC input instead of the RCA line input.
Important: With all large speakers, an initial "break-in" period is needed to perform at optimal levels. To
properly "break-in" your BLOCK ROCKER, play an audio source at medium volume for a few hours.
