1 Welcome!
Safety First 2
Welcome to the world of Angry Audio,
home of the audio Gadgets and Gizmos.
The future we were all promised has, at least as of this writing, failed to manifest
itself. There are no flying cars. Jetpacks never took off (see what we did there?).
And tragically, we have no robotic housekeepers in mid-century maid outfits
picking up after us and cracking wise in a Brooklyn accent.
The audio world, on the other hand, has advanced quickly, as one look at
a modern broadcast studio will reveal. Technology has opened up creative
possibilities that would have been impossible just a few years ago. What hasn’t
changed is the importance of getting the basics right and sweating the details.
A good studio is built by including components that make it a convenient and
enjoyable place to create the content that dazzles your listeners, drives traffic to
your advertisers, and lets you hang onto your ski boat for another summer.
Accordingly, every audio Gadget and Gizmo – including this Button Gizmo
– is designed to solve common yet critical problems, and is meticulously
engineered with performance and longevity in mind to deliver pristine audio and
reliable performance for many years.
Our promise and guarantee.
In a recent survey, ten out of three people loved their Button Gizmo and we
think you will too. That’s why we give you 30 days to bond with your Gizmo. If
you find you have irreconcilable differences, we’ll buy it back.
Plus, every Gadget and Gizmo is warrantied to be free from defects in parts
and workmanship for two full years after you purchase it. If it fails within this
time period, Angry Audio, at its discretion, will 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 Button Gizmo, we 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 of our products are over-engineered
to provide long-term reliability and guaranteed RFI immunity. Some of this is
apparent – such as the durable powder-coated steel enclosure - but much of
this goodness is invisible, like the premium components within. Even if you can’t
see it, you’ll hear it!
A word or two about safety.
The Button Gizmo is a relatively low-risk product to make, install, and use in
terms of liability. There aren’t many places things can go horribly awry safety-
wise.
Then again, we thought the same thing when we introduced the TubToaster, an
appliance that should have saved buyers lots of time in the morning by allowing
them to simultaneously shower and make a light breakfast. Instead - how can
we put this delicately? – it quickly eroded any future customer base and denied
a lot of people the simple pleasure of perfectly toasted rye bread.
Along with a promise to mothball our gas-powered upright vacuum (it seemed
the logical progression of the cordless concept to us) we agreed to talk about
safety, so here goes.
The Button Gizmo is intended to be installed and 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.
While the Button Gizmo does not have its own power supply, it does receive
DC voltage from the console to which it is wired, and hazardous voltages may
be present on external components.
Do not expose your Gizmo or its power supply to rain or moisture. Any
electronic device can fail without warning; do not use this product in
applications where a life threatening condition could result due to failure.
