Model AW-424 Indoor/Outdoor Speaker System

Congratulations on your purchase of the Atlantic Technology AW-424 indoor/outdoor speaker system.Utilizing tough,environmentally-resistant materials and state-of-the-art acoustic design, the AW-424 lets you take Atlantic’s famous sound outdoors.

The advanced design of these speakers deliver detailed,articulate sound,for a dramatic listening experience. Each speaker contains two GLH (Graph- ite Loaded Homopolymer) 4 ½-inch (115mm) woofers, and an advanced 1” (25mm) ferrofluid-cooled, damped soft dome tweeter with a powerful neodymium magnet structure.The drivers are mounted in an acoustically inert,heavily-reinforced enclosure made from mineral-filled polypropylene. This is a far more neutral, less “ringy” material than is typically used with conventional outdoor speakers, and it contributes to the AW-424’s amaz- ingly musical sound.

All the component parts of the AW-424 have been designed for durabil- ity under harsh conditions: UV and impact resistant cabinets, aluminum powder-coated grilles and mounting brackets, and gold-plated speaker terminals.

Speaker Placement

Placement has a significant impact on the sound of your system.Please take a few minutes to experiment with different speaker locations to assure that you obtain pleasing sound and adequate coverage of your primary listening area before you commit to running speaker wire and permanently attach- ing the mounting brackets.

The speakers should be far enough apart (6 to 10 feet,2-3 meters is usually best) that you get a good stereo“image” when they are playing,but not so far apart that the sound seems to come only from each individual speaker.

Wall- or corner-mounting will tend to increase the speaker’s apparent bass output compared to a free-standing speaker,so take this into consideration when choosing a mounting location.

Although the AW-424 speakers are constructed of the highest quality materials, common sense should be observed when using them. Place- ment under the eaves reduces the speaker’s exposure to direct sunlight and precipitation, which tends to increase the speaker’s life and minimize any potential weather-related wear and tear.
