FAQs

Do I need to protect the amplifier from rain?

Yes, the amplifier is not outdoor-rated and must be protected from rain, moisture, and direct sunlight. Install it indoors or in a suitable weather-proof outdoor enclosure.

How do I connect all four speakers to the amplifier?

The amplifier has two speaker outputs (left and right channels). Connect two speakers to the left channel outputs and the other two speakers to the right channel outputs. You can wire them in parallel by running a cable from the amplifier to each speaker, or daisy-chain them (connect the first speaker, then run a cable from it to the second, and so on).

What is the maximum Bluetooth range?

The Bluetooth signal range is up to 10 meters (approximately 33 feet) under optimal conditions, with minimal obstructions.

Can I connect a turntable to this system?

Yes, you can connect a turntable that has a built-in pre-amplifier or an external pre-amplifier to the RCA/Phono line inputs on the amplifier.

Are the speakers suitable for permanent outdoor installation?

Yes, the speakers are IP44 weather-resistant and designed for permanent outdoor installation, but they should not be submerged in water or directly exposed to harsh weather without additional protection if extreme conditions are expected.

Can I use this system for karaoke?

Yes, the amplifier features two 6.35mm microphone inputs, making it suitable for karaoke or public address applications.

What is the power output of the amplifier?

The amplifier delivers 55W MAX per channel at 4 Ohms (110W total max output). The RMS power output is 35W per channel at 4 Ohms.

Does the kit include everything needed for basic installation?

The kit includes the amplifier, four speakers, mounting brackets, and 25m of outdoor-rated speaker cable. Basic tools for stripping wires and mounting may be required.

Troubleshooting

No sound from speakers

Check that the amplifier is powered on and connected to a power source. Verify that the volume is turned up on both the amplifier and the connected audio source. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the amplifier. Double-check speaker wire connections for proper polarity and secure fit.

Bluetooth connection fails or is unstable

Ensure the audio source device is within 10 meters of the amplifier and there are no major obstructions. Turn off Bluetooth on your source device, then turn it back on and try to re-pair. Restart both the amplifier and the source device. Check if other Bluetooth devices are interfering.

Humming or buzzing sound

This may indicate a ground loop. Try connecting the amplifier to a different power outlet, preferably on a separate circuit. Ensure all audio cables are properly seated and not damaged. If using multiple wired connections, try disconnecting them one by one to identify the source.

Poor audio quality or distortion

Ensure the volume is not set to maximum on both the amplifier and the source device, as this can cause clipping. Check that the speakers are wired correctly (impedance matches amplifier requirements, and polarity is correct). Clean any dirty audio input jacks or USB/SD ports.

FM radio reception is weak

Position the antenna (if applicable, or the amplifier itself) for better reception. Try tuning to different stations or at different times of the day. Ensure the amplifier is not placed near sources of electronic interference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Position Amplifier: Place the amplifier in a dry, protected location. This could be indoors near an open window, in a garage, or within a specifically designed outdoor-rated enclosure. Ensure adequate ventilation.
  2. Connect Speakers: Run the supplied outdoor-rated speaker cable from the amplifier's speaker outputs to each of the four outdoor speakers. For a stereo setup, connect two speakers to the left channel outputs and two to the right channel outputs. Ensure correct polarity: connect the red wire to the positive (+) terminal and the black wire to the negative (-) terminal on both the amplifier and speaker ends.
  3. Connect Audio Source: Use Bluetooth to pair your mobile device, or connect wired sources via the RCA, 3.5mm AUX, USB, or SD card inputs.
  4. Power On: Connect the amplifier to a suitable 230V AC mains power outlet using the supplied UK mains cable.

Compatibility:

  • Bluetooth: Compatible with any Bluetooth-enabled device (smartphones, tablets, computers).
  • Wired Inputs: Works with any device featuring RCA, 3.5mm AUX, USB, or SD card audio outputs.
  • Microphones: Compatible with standard 6.35mm jack microphones.

Care:

  • Amplifier: Keep the amplifier clean and dry. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure ventilation ports are clear of obstruction.
  • Speakers: Wipe the speaker surfaces with a slightly damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure mounting brackets are securely fastened.
  • Cable: Inspect the speaker cable periodically for any signs of damage to the outer sheath. Keep connections clean and free from corrosion.
