- safety signs and mark certificates which confirm compatibility with appropriate standards

Why don't we read the manuals?

Usually it results from the lack of time and certainty about functionalities of purchased items. Unfortunately, networking and start-up of Soundstream Technologies SA.244 alone are not enough. An instruction contains a number of clues concerning respective functionalities, safety rules, maintenance methods (what means should be used), eventual defects of Soundstream Technologies SA.244, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Soundstream Technologies service.

    4 INST ALLATION STEP 2 t In most car audio installations, there is a tendency for a “midbass boom.” Because of their interior dimensions, most cars will resonate or ring at these midbass frequencies. If we design the system so there is less musical information in this region, the final response is very smooth and natural sounding. vet pass The [...]
