WARNING:
The cMoyBB is designed for 1.3x3.5mm connectors. Safety should always be verified by connecting the power adapter
to the cMoyBB with the AC adapter UNPLUGGED at the wall: Amplifier should remain OFF with battery connected, headphones
inserted, and amplifier switched on. JDS Labs assumes no liability for damages caused by negligence of these warnings.
2
Linear adapters
are preferred. Switching adapters may generate audible ground loop hum when the cMoyBB is off and connected
to another AC powered audio source. Some switching adapters can damage the cMoyBB. Use untested adapters at your own risk!
3
Unregulated DC adapters
may deliver much higher voltage than expected and cause damage to your cMoyBB, but are safe to use
as long as the measured output voltage is between 9 and 24VDC. Only connect an unregulated DC adapter to your cMoyBB after
verifying that it is operating within specification.
4
Improper DC adapter usage
typically damages the cMoyBB’s TLE2426CLP chip(s). Symptoms of TLE2426 damage vary with volume
and equipment, but may include any or all of the following: Loss of audio, clicking, popping, or distorted output. If you have
damaged your amplifier, please contact us for repair service.
