ALARM CLOCK

FM RADIO

We are craftspeople. We are musicians. We are KitSound

™

And we all commit ourselves to achieving one shared goal: Bringing

people closer to their music. By truly understanding music we stay true

to its craft. Pure, rich, incredible sound. We’ll settle for nothing less.

At KS we believe your music deserves to be showcased on great

quality products that don’t cost the earth. We might not all share

the same taste in music (the ferocious disputes on music forums

prove that), but whether it’s Irish folk, death metal or any number

of obscure genres which seem to be multiplying by the minute, the

artists responsible for connecting with you through their craft have

bared their souls to do so. And we think that’s worth celebrating.

Using the Aux audio input

With the Swing in FM mode, press the Mode button (8) to enable aux mode. Connect one end of an aux

Your device will have an internal ampliﬁer and if it is playing digital ﬁles like MP3s it will also have an

integrated DAC (Digital Audio Converter). If you turn up the volume to 100%, your device will be sending
