Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

Рэгулятар гучнасці

The Aune Yuki features two buttons on its back for volume adjustment. The button with the dot is for Volume Up, and the other button is for Volume Down. These buttons control the device's internal volume.

Changing Gain Level

To switch between high gain and low gain modes, press and hold both Volume Up and Volume Down buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. You will notice a change in volume, indicating the gain level has been adjusted. High gain is suitable for harder-to-drive headphones, while low gain is ideal for sensitive IEMs.
