Tavor 8-T - Getting Started 

 

Getting Started 

We recommend that you: 

 

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging 

materials for possible future shipment 

 

Review the contents of this user manual 

 

 

 

Go to 

http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp 

to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check

2.1 

Achieving the Best Performance 

To achieve the best performance: 

 

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in 

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often 

associated with low quality cables) 

 

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils 

 

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely 

influence signal quality  

 

Position your Kramer 

Tavor

 

8-T

 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and 

dust 

 

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be 

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building. 

 

Do not open the housing of the speaker; doing so may reduce the 
quality of the sound.
