Cambridge Audio 510D Speaker User Manual


 
15
MegaWorks 510D has moderately
high input sensitivity, so it may
amplify the hum and hiss inherent in
some audio program sources (more
common in analog rather than digital
sources).
Any noise is not due to a fault in the
speaker system. You can minimize
background noise as follows:
Use the MegaWorks 510D volume
control as your master level control.
Examine your computer's sound
control software (Mixer program in
Sound Blaster software). Turn off
any inputs you don't need
(Microphone, for instance). Set the
remaining input volume controls to
about 70% of their overall scale.
Adjust the sound control program's
master output level so that the
MegaWorks 510D reaches a
comfortably loud output level when
the control is set straight up (12
o'clock).
