Operation
When you have made all the required connections, switch on the mains supply.
Flashing bars will be shown on the back panel display for approximately 30
seconds. During this time the speaker’s servo circuitry is stabilising and no
audio will be issued. When the display changes to show the standby symbol (see
table below), the speaker is ready to receive an audio signal.
Whenever the AKURATE 221 speaker is disconnected from the mains supply
and then reconnected, wait until the standby symbol appears on the display
before playing a disc.

During very demanding, sustained use the
unit will go into Thermal Standby mode in
order to allow itself to cool down. When in
this mode the unit will not produce any
sound. The unit will return to On mode
when its temperature has dropped to its
operating level.
