How to Hook Up & Attach Your AirHead
To hook up your AirHead to a source, plug one end of the included mini-to-mini cable into the
AirHead’s audio input jack. Then, plug the other end of the mini-to-mini cable into your audio
source’s audio output jack. Most portable audio devices (CD, MiniDisc, and MP3 players; radios;
etc.) provide one or more 1/8”audio output mini-jacks.If your player has a line-out jack, use that.
If not, use the headphone jack and turn the volume on the player to the maximum. Then use the
AirHead’s volume control to change the volume.
If your audio source has dual (left/right) RCA jacks, you’ll need to purchase an RCA-to-stereo-
miniplug cable (often called a portable cable) that connects to your source’s RCA jacks and then
connects to the AirHead via the miniplug.
Plug your headphones into either of the two headphone jacks on the AirHead. If your headphones
are terminated to a 1/4” headphone plug, it may detach to reveal an 1/8” plug, or you may need
to purchase a 1/4”-to-1/8” adaptor available at www.headphone.com.

Your AirHead has been supplied with a number of different feet. The rubber feet can be stuck
to the bottom of the amp if you are simply going to place it on a tabletop. But we like to attach
the amp to the various source devices with the enclosed Velcoins. First, remove the hook coins
(the scratchy ones with all the miniature hooks) from their adhesive strip and stick them into the
three circular foot wells on the bottom of the amp.
Then, clean the surface where you want to mount your AirHead. On portable players we recom-
mend mounting the amp to the bottom side of your portable player with the amp controls facing
towards you. In this configuration the rubber door will act as a non-slip foot and the players’
controls will tilt slightly towards you for easy access.
Then, remove the loop coins from the strip, and stick them to the hook coin in the feet of the
AirHead, adhesive side out. Carefully position the AirHead just above the desired spot, then
slowly and firmly push the AirHead against the surface. This should stick the loop Velcoins into
proper position. Carefully remove the AirHead leaving the loop coins, and then press each more
firmly into place by hand.
