player use the included 2ft 3.5mm stereo jack plug cable. Plug one end
of this cable into this jack and the other end into the headphone or

plug in your IEM’s. This socket accepts a standard 3.5mm (1/8” mini)
stereo jack headphone plug. You may connect headphone sets with
impedance ranging from 16 ohm to 300 ohm. Consult your IEM
manufacturer specification chart to determine your headphone impedance.
The X0HA-REP is not recommended for IEM’s with impedance
exceeding 300 ohm.
The volume control and power switch - The volume control has an
integral power switch, when rotated to the “Off” position the power is
turned off. To turn on the X0HA-REP simply rotate the volume control
clockwise, you will hear a click and if the battery is at the correct voltage
level the blue power LED will light up.
Adjust the IEM volume level to your desired listening level
by rotating the volume control knob clockwise to increase and counter
clockwise to decrease the volume level.
NOTE: It is normal for the X0HA-REP to become slightly warm when
using it with An AC adapter. Do not place the X0HA-R near a heat source
or in a small confined space when operating it using an AC adapter.
