Speaker Instructions
Welcome to the AMPLFY tribe!
Below are the instructions to build your very own portable Bluetooth speaker. As a member of our Tribe, we realise in order to create the best portable speakers, we need you’re feedback.
If you have any tips, or suggestions about how to improve the speakers, please share by posting in the comments, or on our Facebook group. (Coming Soon: Like our Facebook to keep updated)
If there is anything you don’t understand, or if you are having problems assembling your speaker, either email Bradley@amplfy.com.au, or post a question in the comments sections.
It is our guarantee that every speaker kit sold ends up in a fully functioning speaker.

The Battery 2021
All batteries now include a blue step down charging chip. All of the settings have been pre-set (prior to shipment). This controls the current of the battery, and allows us to use better quality chargers, which help maintain the life of the battery.
All batteries come completely assembled, all you need to do is screw the DC socket cable from the battery into the hole on the Ammo Box.
