SYMPTOM
SOLUTION
No power on system
Please check:
• Alaap/Bandish is connected to mains socket
• Power switch (at rear) is turned ON
• Please check the fuse at rear. If blown, replace with
supplied spare fuse
No audio in BT mode
• Make sure you have selected “Alaap” or “Bandish”
in the pairing list on your BT device and connection
is confirmed by your device.
• Make sure “Alaap” or “Bandish” is not muted and
the speaker volume is up.
• Make sure your BT device is playing audio and the
device volume is up.
• Make sure the transport controls of the audio
device are set to playback audio.
• Your BT device may be out of range – try moving it
closer to “Alaap” or “Bandish”.
• Move your BT device and/or “Alaap” or
“Bandish”away from devices such as cordless
phones, microwave ovens, wireless network routers
that generate electromagnetic interface.
• If possible, turn off all other nearby BT devices or
disable their BT functionality.
• Turn off or disable BT functionality on all other
paired devices nearby (including “Alaap” or
“Bandish”) and reconnect the device with “Alaap”
or “Bandish”.
Distorted sound quality
in AUX mode
• This can happen if the input is over-driven, typically
while being connected to a source that also has a
gain control. To resolve this please keep the DVD
volume level close to min, and then increase the
volume level of Alaap or Bandish as desired.
• Make sure the 3.5mm plug is fully inserted into the
speaker.
iii. Optical – Connect your source such as the optical output of a CD/DVD player or set-
top box or A/V receiver, to the socket marked Optical, with an optical cable. Press the
OPTICAL key on the top panel, or the OPT button on the remote, to play.
iv. USB – Insert a USB flash-drive or external hard disk containing audio tracks in .mp3
or .wav format. Inserting a USB device with audio tracks will automatically switch it to
USB mode and play will commence. You can pause a track or commence play from
pause mode, by pressing the Play/Pause button on remote or the respective keys on
top panel. To select previous or next track, press the respective buttons momentarily.
Note that since these buttons also double as volume up/down, do not press and hold,
which will activate the volume up/down function.
6. The Alaap and Bandish are protected from overdrive by a built-in DSP-based limiter. If
the maximum undistorted output is reached, further increase of volume will not have
any effect.
