Thiel Audio Products manual Grille, Service, CS3.6 Specifications

GRILLE

The CS3.6 grille is designed to not produce diffraction so there is no sonic reason to remove it. If you do need to remove the grille, pull the bottom of the grille frame away from the speaker an inch or so and then lift the grille upward to remove it. When replacing the grille, first push the top down onto the baffle and then push the bottom back.

The grilles can be cleaned of dust by using an upholstery attachment of a vacuum cleaner. To prevent damage to the tweeter, take care not to push the cloth in toward the top of the grille.

WE WANT YOU LISTENING FOR A LIFETIME

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, THIEL and the Electronics Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. Depending on room size and amplifier power, some home audio systems can reach sound pressure levels in excess of 95 decibels with peaks of over a 105 decibels. For your protection, the list below identifies sound levels for various noises.
