Setup

  1. Select Eartips: Choose the eartips (silicone or foam) that provide the most comfortable and secure fit, as well as optimal sound isolation. Experiment with different sizes to find the best seal.
  2. Attach Cable: Connect the EPIC cable to the in-ear monitors. Ensure the left (blue dot) and right (red dot) connectors are matched to the corresponding earpieces. The connectors should click securely into place.

Operating Instructions

The AMPRO X30 In-Ear Monitors are designed for straightforward operation. Once connected to your audio source, they will reproduce sound directly.
