CA-3098
A Three-Piece Powered Speaker System
Introduction
This speaker system is designed to deliver superior audio performance to computers, smartphones, iPod®,
MP3 players, DVD players, and other portable audio devices. The system offers high efficient, long excursion
drivers combined with a low distortion, high powered amplifier that provides deep bass with clarity and
a greater dynamic audio range.
Box Contents
• 2 x satellite speakers
• Subwoofer
• Control pod
• Owner’s guide with connection diagram
Caution
• Do not plug the power supply in until all connections are made.
• Use only the AC power cable supplied with these speakers.
• Keep speakers away from sources of extreme heat, such as stereo amplifiers, space heaters, stoves, and
heat vents.
• Use a dry cloth for cleaning. Do not wipe any part of the system with cleaning solvents, such as furniture wax,
bleach, benzene, acetone, or ammonia.
Speaker Preparation
• Subwoofer—place on the floor near a wall or corner, for optimum performance. Adjust distance from the
corner or wall to affect quality of bass performance as desired. Direct open port toward wall to increase
bass punch.
• Satellite Speakers—For best stereo separation, place on opposite sides of the listening device, computer,
or TV screen (as far apart as possible is usually best). For example, if you are listening to the speakers using
a laptop on a desk, place the left satellite speaker on the far left corner of the desk, and the right satellite
speaker on the far right corner of the desk.

Speaker Connection
You can connect these speakers to a variety of devices, such as laptop, computer, smartphone, iPod, MP3
player, CD player, DVD player, and other audio devices. Please read the following instructions along with the
diagrams provided to identify which diagram most closely matches your connection source.
Desktop computer
• Take the cable with the green plug and plug it into the green output/source jack in the back or front of the computer
(also referred to as the sound/audio out jack).
• Connect the gray plug to the “To Speaker” jack on the back of the subwoofer.
• Take the AC power cord and plug it into a wall socket or power strip.
Smartphone, iPod, MP3 player, DVD Player, or CD player
• Take the cable with the green plug and plug it into the green output/source jack of the audio device.
• Connect the gray plug to the “To Speaker” jack on the back of the subwoofer.
• Take the AC power cord and plug it into a wall socket or power strip.
Gaming system
• In order to connect these speakers to a game console, you will need a console gaming adapter, also
known as a “Y adapter”, which has dual-RCA outputs and is sold separately.
• Turn off the power to your gaming system.
• Take the red and white dual-RCA connections on the Y adapter, and plug them into the matching red and
white RCA jacks on your gaming system.
• Take the green stereo jack at the other end of the Y adapter, and plug that into the control pod cable with
the green plug.
• Connect the gray plug to the “To Speaker” jack on the back of the subwoofer.

Controls and Features
• Power—the on/off button is on the side of the control pod. Slide to turn the speaker on or off.
• Master Volume Control—this volume is on the top of the control pod and is indicated by the words “MAX”
and “MIN.” Rotate clockwise to turn the volume up, and counter-clockwise to turn the volume down.
• Bass Volume Control – this control is on the subwoofer jack panel and is indicated by the word “Bass Vol”.
Rotate clockwise to turn volume up or counter-clockwise to turn volume down.
• Headphone Output Jack—connect your headphones to this jack and they will mute the speaker system
automatically.
• Auxiliary Input Connection—the auxiliary input jack allows the connection of a second audio source. For
example, if your speakers are connected to your computer, you would still be able to plug in an iPod or
smartphone using the 3.5mm input jack on the side of the control pod. The connected iPod or smartphone
would override your computer’s audio source connection while it’s plugged in.

Troubleshooting
Symptom:
Speaker system will not power on.
Solution:
• Power button is not turned on. Slide the power button back and forth and check for the blue LED indicator
light to come on.
• Verify the AC power cord is plugged into the wall outlet.
• Check if the wall outlet or power strip you are using is actually getting power, i.e. not a switched outlet.
Symptom:
Speaker does not produce sound.
Solution:
• Verify the speaker is getting power. Check above steps.
• Make sure the volume is turned up to audible listening level.
• Verify that all cables are plugged into the correct jacks.
• Many times users believe that the speakers are not working, when in fact they are having trouble with the
sound source. The most common problem when connecting to a computer is that the connections are
incorrect. Make sure you are connected to the audio output jack from your computer. Many times, this jack
will be green. Also, make sure your media device or CD/DVD device is playing and the software volume
settings are turned up and not muted.
• If you still have problems, disconnect the speaker source cable from your computer and connect to a
smartphone, iPod, or anything else with a 3.5mm headphone output. If your speakers work on this other
source, you know they are functioning as normal and the issue likely lies with your computer or the connections.
Symptom:
Sound is distorted.
Solution:
• Turn the volume down by 25% or 50%. If this does not work, also check the audio software volume level
and decrease it if necessary.
• Adjust the computer’s master volume control by balancing the volume until it’s at 50%, then adjust the
volume levels on the speakers.
If you have questions or need assistance with your speakers, we’re here to help.
