Features

The cabinet of the MC-6AW and A-5AW is constructed of dense acoustically inert impact resistant polypropylene resin, sealed to provide protection from the natural elements of the weather. The rounded back allows for easy placement into a corner. All hardware parts are made from brass, aluminum or stainless steel and the binding posts are plastic to avoid rusting or corrosion.

For high frequencies, the MC-6AW uses a 1-inch high performance aluminum dome tweeter and the A-5AW features a high quality mylar dome tweeter. Both tweeters use liquid cooling to allow greater power handling. For midrange and bass reproduction the MC-6AW uses a 6½-inch high- end Aluminum cone woofer while the A-5AW uses a 5¼-inch PolyGraphite cone woofer.

Steep acoustic slope crossover networks are used to integrate the drivers, allowing high power handling, minimizing driver interaction anomalies, and maximizing the clarity with which each driver is able to produce its respective frequency band.

Break-in Period

Allow several hours of listening time to adequately break-in the speakers. As the speakers break-in, the driver suspensions will loosen. The result of break-in will be an increase in low frequency response, improved definition, and increased clarity and detail.

NOTE: This is an important step that is often disregarded. Allowing your speakers the specified break-in period can prolong the life of your speakers and enhance their tonal qualities.

Speaker Placement

Establish where the most likely or average listening area will be. Ideally, speakers should be placed on either side of the targeted listening area with at least 8 to 10-feet of total separation. For best performance, try to leave at least 4 to 5-feet of distance between each speaker and the listening area. The distance from the listening area to each speaker should be close to the distance that separates the two main speakers. Angling the speakers inward towards the listening position may give a more spacious and realistic sound stage. Experiment with speaker placement to determine which location offers the best overall sound.

Placing the speakers in a corner or under an eave will provide reinforcement for the bass frequencies, resulting in higher bass output. Placing the speakers away from any corners or walls will provide the least amount of reinforcement, resulting in lower bass output.
