4. Setup Guide

Follow these steps to set up your TAG DP-500 speakers:

  1. Placement: Position the two speaker units on either side of your computer monitor, laptop, or desired listening area. Ensure they are on a stable, flat surface.
  2. Connect USB Power: Locate the USB cable attached to the speakers. Plug this USB connector into an available USB port on your computer, laptop, USB wall adapter (not included), or any other compatible USB power source. The speakers require 5V DC power via USB.
  3. Connect Audio (3.5mm AUX): Locate the 3.5mm audio jack cable attached to the speakers. Plug this 3.5mm connector into the audio output jack (headphone jack) of your computer, laptop, tablet, mobile phone, or any other audio source.
  4. Power On: Once both USB and 3.5mm AUX cables are connected, the speakers will typically power on automatically. There is no separate power button.
  5. Adjust Volume: Use the in-line volume control wheel on the speaker cable to adjust the volume to your desired level. You may also need to adjust the volume on your connected device.

5. Operating Instructions

Operating your TAG DP-500 speakers is straightforward:

  • Volume Control: The in-line volume control allows for quick and easy adjustment of the speaker's output volume. Rotate the wheel clockwise to increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
  • Audio Source: Ensure your audio source (computer, phone, etc.) is playing sound and its volume is turned up.
  • Compatibility: The speakers are compatible with any device that has a standard 3.5mm audio output jack and a USB port for power.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your speakers, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the speaker surfaces. Do not use liquid cleaners, aerosols, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish or internal components.
  • Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the speakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Handling: Avoid dropping the speakers or subjecting them to strong impacts. Do not attempt to disassemble the speakers, as this will void the warranty.
