CAUTIONS:
● This unit has a dynamic range of more than 80 dB with regards 
to its Hi-Fi audio capability. It is recommended that you check 
the maximum level if you are going to listen to the Hi-Fi audio 
signals through a stereo amplifier. A sudden surge in the input 
level to the speakers may damage them.
● Some speakers and televisions are specially shielded to 
prevent television interference. If both are of the non-shielded 
type, do not place the speakers adjacent to the TV set as this 
can adversely affect the video playback picture.
