Operation Instructions

1.

Make sure the amplifier/receiver is turned OFF and the volume is set to 
minimum.

2.

If you are using a Russound speaker selector system, locate the ON/OFF 
button which corresponds to the speaker pair you wish to play. Set the button 
to the ON position.

3.

Set the WALTx-2 volume to maximum (fully clockwise).

4.

Turn on the amplifier or receiver and select a music source, such as tuner or 
CD player.

5.

Slowly turn up the amplifier or receiver volume and set it to a comfortable (not
maximum) listening level. Be careful not to overdrive your amplifier. If the 
sound becomes distorted, you have reached the limit of your amplifier's 
volume capability and should quickly reduce the volume to avoid damaging 
your speakers.

NOTE:

If the volume control’s autoformers get warm or vibrate, turn the

amplifier/receiver down. If the amplifier is driven to this “clipping” state, it and/or the
volume control may become damaged.

6.

You can turn OFF the speakers by turning the knob on the WALTx-2 fully 
counterclockwise, or by pressing the corresponding ON/OFF button on your 
speaker selector.
