  • May be already connected to another Bluetooth device. Press and hold headphone button on the remote control to let this unit enter pairing mode.
  • Bring die Bluetooth-toestel naby hierdie eenheid.
  • Turn the power of the unit off and then try again.
  • Bring die Bluetooth-toestel naby hierdie eenheid.
  • Verwyder obstruksies tussen die Bluetooth-toestel en hierdie eenheid.
Bluetooth in: the sound is cut off
  • Om elektromagnetiese steurings te voorkom, plaas hierdie eenheid weg van mikrogolfoonde, draadlose LAN-toestelle en ander Bluetooth-toestelle.
  • Koppel die Bluetooth-toestel weer aan.
The connected USB device does not recognize this unit
  • USB cable did not connect properly. Please check or change the cable.
  • Driver problem. Try to reinstall the driver.
  • Maybe caused by the PC. Check or try with another PC.
  • Sommige fone vereis dat die OTG-funksie eers geaktiveer word.

  • Please aim at the remote control receiver.
  • Bring the remote control close to the device.
  • Use your Android phone's camera to look at the transmitter at the top of the remote, if it doesn't blink when you press the remote button, the remote is defective.

Can't adjust this unit's volume
  • Please check if DAC mode was set in [Setup menu-Advanced-DAC mode]. In DAC mode, the volume is not adjustable and is the maximum value, while in PRE mode the volume can be adjusted. Set it to PRE mode if you need to adjust the volume.
Die sample rate displayed on the device does not match the music file
  • The choice of music player app, the setting of music player and the setting of computer/phone will all have an impact on the sampling koers.
  • Die sampling rate displayed by this unit is the sampling rate of the input signal, and it will not change the sampling rate by itself.
  • If the music player can be set to exclusive mode, the audio signal will not be resampled by the computer/phone, so the sampling rate of the output signal is the sampling rate of the original file, en die sampling rate displayed by this unit is also the sampling rate of the original file.
  • Because some players can't be set to exclusive mode, the audio signal will be resampled by the computer/phone and then output. So this unit will always display the sampling rate set by the computer/phone.
  • We recommend using Audirvana player on MAC OS and Foobar on Windows.
