Sound seems unfocused

1. Play a CD of typical pop vocals and sit in front of your speakers at an equal distance from both (at least 8

feet away from each speaker). If the vocals seem to come from between the speakers, they are connected cor-

rectly. Alternatively, you can use the "barking dog" test from the Stereophile Test CD or a similar phase check

test from another test CD.

2. If the vocals seem to come from all around you, make sure that the cables between the Inspiration Integrat-

ed and your speakers are connected properly, with the marked connector or cable connected to the positive

(red or +) binding post on the amplifier, and the unmarked connector or cable connected to the negative (black

or -) binding post.

3. If you need to change the speaker cable connection, turn the Inspiration Integrated off first. To avoid possi-

ble electrical shock or damage to the amplifier, you must discharge the energy stored in the power supply. To

discharge the power supply, turn the power off with music playing. It may take up to a minute or so for the

sound to die out. After the sound dies out, it is OK to change or adjust the cables.

Sound comes from the wrong speaker

If left-channel sounds are coming from the right or vice-versa (i.e., the violins in an orchestral recording come

from the right speaker, not the left), check the cable connections between the source and the Inspiration Inte-

grated, and the Inspiration Integrated and your speakers. Make sure left-channel cables are connected to the

left channels of the Inspiration Integrated and amp, and right to the right channels.

Only one speaker is working, or one speaker is playing a different piece of music

1. Check each cable between the Inspiration Integrated and the source components. Make sure the left channel

of the source goes to the left input on the Inspiration Integrated (which is on the right side, as you're looking

at the back panel), and the right channel to the right input (which is on the left side). On the back of the Inspi-

ration Integrated, the left and right inputs are NOT next to each other. They are on opposite sides of the unit.

In other words, the XLR and RCA input numbers are 1, 2, 2, 1.

2. If you're listening to your speakers, check to make sure both speaker cables are firmly connected.

3. If you're listening to headphones, check to make sure the headphone plug is pushed all the way into the In-

spiration Integrated's headphone jack. If you're using an adapter, make sure the headphone plug is fully in-

serted into the adapter, that the adapter is fully inserted into the Inspiration Integrated's headphone jack, and

that the connection between the headphone cable and the headphones are secure.

Remote control does not work

1. Move the remote a few feet away to a different location and try again. The remote requires a clear line-of-

sight to the infrared detector on the Inspiration Integrated's front panel.

2. If the remote still doesn't work, use a 3/32" Allen wrench to remove the remote's battery compartment cov-

er, then replace the remote's two AAA batteries and replace the cover.

Balance and volume controls do not function

1. If you are using the input configured for home theater bypass, this situation is normal—volume and bal-

ance controls do not function in this mode.

2. If you are not using an input configured for home theater bypass, you need to clear out the minimum and

maximum volume settings for the input you are using. Press the multifunction button labeled Setup on the

screen, then press the Default button.
