OPERATION

LISTENING AT HIGHER VOLUMES

Achieving a reasonable volume of sound in a large room requires more ampliﬁer power than it does in a small room. It is possible to turn the volume up so high that the ampliﬁer runs out of power. This creates “clipping” distortion, which will make treble sound very harsh and unmusical.

When you hear harsh-sounding treble from any good loudspeaker, turn the volume down immedi- ately! Those harsh sounds are masking much more powerful ultra-high-frequency sound spikes, which will quickly damage any ﬁne loudspeaker. You are much less likely to damage a loudspeaker driven by a large ampliﬁer because it will be very loud before any clipping distortion is produced.

CLEANING

To clean the enclosure, use a dampened soft cloth or paper towel. To clean the grille, use a gentle vacuum cleaner.
