Secrets/Tips/Tricks
- Volume Tricks
-Boost 11
Keep turning the volume knob past maximum volume until it reaches "boost" levels.
-Boost 22
Some have been able to achieve boost 22 by holding the mute button once at boost 11 and keep turning, but I can't seem to do it on my speakers (System Firmware v2.1.0). Here is a YouTube video showing Boost 22.
-Analog Volume Offset
You can also individually boost the volume of analog sources by holding mute on the pod and turning the volume knob. This will display a "Volume + #" up to 11. - Second Skin
While the system is on standby (press the power button until the LED is red) and hold Input + Effect + Settings + Mute for about six seconds until the screen shows "Second Skin". This is a "stepped" skin. Try it out! You will also notice that the standby LED is now purple (pink) instead of red. - Display Firmware Version and Reset to Factory Settings
While in standby, hold Input + Settings, and it will both display your firmware version and reset all your settings. - Display Digital Stream Information
While in standby, press Input + Effect for 6 seconds, the pod goes into diagnostic mode, and whenever you play a digital stream, instead of the DD or DTS logo, it will display information such as format and bitrate. - Subwoofer Mesh Removal
Here is a YouTube video showing how to get the mesh off your subwoofer. - Speaker Specifications
The speakers used in this set are made by Tangband Speakers.
