Safety First   2

Welcome to the world of Angry Audio,  
home of the audio gadgets.

The audio world is filled with complex, high-tech gear. Much of it bristles with 
seductive shapes and eye-catching lights and displays, and all of it promises to 
make things sound better and open up new creative possibilities.

But in order for those products to shine, you still have to get the basics right and 
sweat the details. Good audio isn’t made by one component. It’s made by getting 
things right every step of the way, especially the little things. 

Accordingly, every audio gadget – including the Balancing Gadgets – are 
designed to solve common yet critical problems, and are meticulously engineered 
with performance and longevity in mind to deliver pristine audio for many years.

Our promise and guarantee. 

We know you’ll love your Balancing Gadget, but the universe is a strange place, 
so it’s always possible that you won’t. That’s why we give you 30 days to bond 
with your gadget. If the two of you can’t get your chakras to align, we’ll buy it 
back. 

Plus, every gadget is warrantied to be free from defects in parts and workmanship 
for two full years after you purchase it. If a gadget fails within this time period, 
Angry Audio will, at is discretion, repair or replace it so long as you let us know 
of the failure within the warranty period and can provide proof of purchase in the 
form of a dated sales receipt. You can call us at +1 615-763-3033, or reach us 
online at at www.angryaudio.com/contact.

Making a good first impression.

When you unbox your Balancing Gadget, we really hope it makes a good first 
impression and you take a moment to appreciate the lengths we’ve gone to 
in order to create a “built for broadcast” product. All audio gadgets are over-
engineered to provide long-term reliability and guaranteed RFI immunity.

Some of this is apparent - such as the rugged powder-coated steel chassis - but 
much of this goodness is invisible, like the low-noise, internal linear power supply 
or the direct coupled transformer-less analog circuitry. Even if you can’t see it, 
you’ll know its there by the absence of hum, buzz, hiss, or RFI. 

A word or two about safety.

Most of this falls under the category of common sense, but the company lawyers 
started to visibly twitch when we suggested we didn’t need to go beyond a simple 
“Don’t use your gadget in the bathtub” warning. Besides, our market research 
indicates that injured (or dead) customers can’t be relied upon to buy more stuff, 
which we’re told is a critical element to a successful business. Who knew?

Audio gadgets aren’t chainsaws or flamethrowers, but still, they are intended to be 
used by qualified personnel only. To avoid electric shock, do not open the unit or 
attempt to perform any servicing unless you are qualified to do so. 

Balancing Gadgets have internal 120VAC or 240VAC power supplies. Hazardous 
voltages are present whenever the unit is plugged in and may still be present on 
certain components even when the unit is unplugged. 

The power cord is the primary disconnect device and so the outlet providing 
power to the gadget should be easily accessible. In other words, make sure you 
can back out of making bad electrical decisions by yanking the plug. Use only a 
properly grounded outlet for power. Do not cut the ground pin or use a ground-
lifting adapter, and do not defeat the polarized plug.  Do not overload outlets. 

Do not expose your gadget to rain or moisture. Do not block any ventilation 
openings, as lack of airflow could damage the unit or create a fire hazard.

Do not run with scissors.
