Getting Started
Wearing, Inserting and Removing the Earphones
1. Wearing the Earphones: These earphones should be worn with the cables routed over the ear. The cables can then be run to your monitoring system either in front or behind, similar to this illustration: [Illustration: Earphones with cables looped over the ears and extending downwards.]
2. Inserting the Earphones: Insert each earphone so it makes a tight seal in the ear canal. A good seal with the ear canal is necessary for optimum sound quality, especially for bass frequencies.
3. Adjusting for Bass Response: If you notice a loss of bass frequencies, gently push the earphone deeper into the ear canal to produce a better seal. If this adjustment does not improve the bass response, you can also switch to a different sleeve.
WARNING: Avoid pushing the earphone in beyond the ear canal.
4. Removing the Earphones: To remove the earphones, firmly hold each earphone’s outer case between your finger and thumb and twist gently. [Illustration: Hand holding earphone and gently twisting to remove.]
Choosing, Installing and Changing Sleeves
MO240 earphones come with a selection of soft sleeves in three sizes, from small to large.
WARNING: Always make sure to protect your ears by muting or lowering your monitoring system’s volume down all the way before inserting the earphones.
- Choose an earphone sleeve with the best fit and the best seal to isolate your earphone mix from outside sounds.
- Slide the sleeve onto each earphone’s sound nozzle. Apply light pressure, and if necessary rotate the sleeve as you go until secure.
- Make sure the sleeve completely covers the nozzle and the flared barb. [Illustration: Silicone sleeve being slid onto the earphone's sound nozzle.]
- Try inserting the earphone into your ear canal to test the fit.
- If the fit is too loose or tight, twist and pull to remove the sleeve from the nozzle and replace with a sleeve in the next appropriate size.
NOTE: If the barb or nozzle is exposed beneath the sleeve, the sleeve is not installed properly. Sleeves that do not fit securely over the nozzle and barb should be replaced.
Cleaning
1. Checking for Obstructions: If you notice problems with sound quality not related to the fit inside the ear canal, remove the sleeve and check the earphone nozzle for obstructions.
2. Clearing Blockages: If the nozzle is blocked, use the included cleaning tool to clear the block. [Illustration: Cleaning tool being used to clear the earphone nozzle.]
3. Testing Sound: Replace the sleeve onto the nozzle, and re-insert the earphones into your ear to test the sound.
Maintenance Tips
- Keep the earphones and sleeves clean and dry.
- To clean, remove the sleeves from the earphone nozzle, gently rinse in warm water and allow to air dry. Sleeves should be completely dry before re-attaching.
- Inspect sleeves for damage and replace as necessary.
- Avoid exposing the sleeves to extreme temperatures.
- Replace sleeves that do not fit properly.
