1 Welcome! Safety First 2
Welcome to the world of Angry Audio,
home of the audio gadgets and gizmos.
Imagine it’s 1980 and you’re getting a little dozey in the middle of your overnight
air shift, so you queue up “American Pie”, “Stairway to Heaven”, and “Us and
Them” on your triple decker cart machine, crack open the rotary pots on your
analog board, and buy yourself 24 minutes or so of snooze time. But you
oversleep a little - around 40 years - and wake up in what was yesterday’s
Studio of Tomorrow, a.k.a. today’s Studio of Today.
Everything is different with the exception of the coffee and the fact that you still
have to get the basics right to get the most out of the new gear and tech. Good
audio is made one step at a time and by sweating the details.
Accordingly, every audio Gizmo and Gadget – including the Headphone
Gizmo – is designed to solve common yet critical problems and is meticulously
engineered with performance and longevity in mind to deliver pristine audio for
years to come.
Our promise and guarantee.
We love the Headphone Gizmo and we think you will too, but maybe you’ll be
the one customer who doesn’t. However, unlike that timeshare you bought
that is not only a thorn in your side but will be an albatross to your family for
generations to come, we’ll buy your Gizmo back within 30 days if you change
your mind.
Plus, every Gizmo and Gadget is warrantied to be free from defects in parts and
workmanship for two full years after you purchase it. If a Gizmo or Gadget fails
within this time period, Angry Audio, at its discretion, will repair or replace it so
long as you let us know of the failure within the warranty period and can provide
proof of purchase in the form of a dated sales receipt.
You can call us at +1 615-763-3033 or reach out to us online via our website at
www.angryaudio.com/contact.
Making a good rst impression.
When you unbox your Headphone Gizmo, we really hope it makes a good first
impression and you take a moment to appreciate the lengths we’ve gone to
in order to create a “built for broadcast” product. All of our products are over-
engineered to provide long-term reliability and guaranteed RFI immunity.
Some of this is apparent – such as the durable powder-coated steel enclosure
- but much of this goodness is invisible, like the premium components within.
Even if you can’t see it, you’ll hear it!
A word or two about safety.
Most of this falls under the category of common sense, but our law firm – which
will be staffed soon by people who actually passed the bar exam – gets really
excited (in a bad way) when we don’t caution you against trying to earn a
Darwin Award while operating one of our products.
Headphone Gizmos are pretty darned safe, much safer than the 240V electric
toothbrush we once tried to market (“Brush your teeth in ten seconds!”) but
they are intended to be used by qualified personnel only. To avoid electric
shock, do not open the unit or attempt to perform any servicing unless you are
qualified to do so.
The Headphone Gizmo has an external power supply. Hazardous voltages are
present within the supply and at the input of the Headphone Gizmo. Voltage
may still be present on certain components even when the unit is unplugged.
The power supply cord is the primary disconnect device and so the outlet
providing power to the gadget should be easily accessible. In other words,
make sure you can back out of making any bad electrical decisions by yanking
the plug. Do not overload outlets.
Do not expose your Gizmo or its power supply to rain or moisture. Any
electronic device can fail without warning; do not use this product in
applications where a life threatening condition could result due to failure.
Do not feed your Gizmo after midnight. If you don’t know why that’s important,
you’ll need to set your time machine to 1984, head to Blockbuster, and rent a
VHS copy of “Gremlins.” Be kind, rewind.
AN IMPORTANT WORD ABOUT VOLUME: Using headphones at high
volume levels can result in hearing damage or permanent hearing loss.
Avoid prolonged use at high sound pressure levels. If you experience
discomfort or ringing in your ears, immediately reduce the volume or
discontinue using the headphones.
