You can set up speakers for a party easily through this method.  1. Get your speaker’s stand and loosen the knob on it to widen the legs of the stand to your desired level.  2. Bring up the telescope part of the stand and keep it to your desired height level, use the metal rod to put it through the hole to tighten it.  3. Now grab your speakers from their handles and you’ll find a hole under the speakers. Now you need to put these speakers on the stand through this hole.  4. Now plug in your IEC or kettle cord into the power.  5. Now you need to plug your iPod or phone’s cable into the back of the speakers (this cable has one large Green wired plug to attach in the Green hole in your speakers and the other side small one to fit into the headphones jack of your iPod).  6. Now bring your volume knob on the speaker to 12 o’clock and plug in your iPhone, iPod or any other device.  7. Now turn on the power switch on your speaker and press play on any song from your device and adjust the volume to desired level.   8. You can also link several speakers for a big party and connect them together using XLR cable (3 pin cable).
