INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of ENERGY® speakers! Proprietary technology and high quality manufacturing will allow you to enjoy the most natural and accurate music reproduction for many years. The advice offered in this manual is aimed at helping you maximize and maintain peak performance, and therefore, your listening satisfaction. Please take the time to read all of the instructions contained in this manual to make certain your system is properly installed and functioning correctly.

COMPANY BACKGROUND

ENERGY speakers are the result of extensive research into accurate sonic reproduction and represent the leading edge in speaker design and performance. The finest components and cabinet materials combined with sophisticated manufacturing and quality control procedures ensure many years of exceptional performance and listening pleasure.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

We strongly advise that you resist the temptation to play the ENERGY speakers to their full capabilities or experiment with critical placement and listening until they have been properly broken in. This process should last approximately 50 hours. This can be easily be done by putting your compact disc player on Repeat mode, while playing a CD with a wide dynamic range at normal listening levels.

CABINET CARE

Great care and craftsmanship has gone into the construction and finish of the cabinet. Periodically use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Do not use paper towels or other abrasive materials as it may damage the finish.

NOTE: Please retain the carton and packing material for your ENERGY products, to protect them in the event of a move or if they need to be shipped to a service center. Product received damaged by a service center that has been shipped by the end user in other than the original packaging will be repaired, refurbished and properly packaged for return shipment, at the end user's expense.

SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT

The placement of your new ENERGY subwoofer is critical to its performance. The three most common locations include: in the corner of the room (which can result in a boomy or exaggerated low frequency response), placement along one wall but out of the corner (moderate bass performance with increased fidelity over corner placement), or alongside a front speaker (creating a better blend with the front speaker, but sacrificing overall volume). Experimentation with subwoofer placement is highly encouraged, as slight adjustments can create large benefits in sound reproduction. To further test subwoofer placement, install the subwoofer temporarily in your main listening position and while playing a familiar piece of music, walk around the listening room until you find the best sounding position. This is a possible location for the subwoofer to be placed.
