Will excessive smoke or dust cause any problems?
Exposure to excessive contaminants, such as smoke or dust, may potentially affect the performance of
the electrostatic diaphragm and may cause discoloration of the diaphragm. Dirt and dust may be
removed by means of a soft brush attached to your vacuum cleaner. See the vacuum cleaning
instructions in this manual.
Are Final Sound front and rear flat-panel loudspeakers to be treated as satellites?
Yes, they have to be installed as satellites on your audio/video receiver or multi channel amplifier. The
correct settings are "SMALL satellites" for the Model F300i flat-panel loudspeakers, which correlates
with the frequency range of the loudspeaker output.
Should I unplug my Final Sound home theatre system during lightning?
Yes. Unplugging before the storm is even better. It’s a good idea to disconnect all of your audio/video
components during stormy weather.
What is to be done when puncturing, knocking over or come in contact with fluids and fire
damages the Final Sound loudspeakers?
Unplug your Final Sound loudspeaker and contact your Final Sound dealer.
Why do I need a Final Sound subwoofer?
The Final Sound home theater is based on the 5+1 multi channel amplifiers, which require two front
loudspeakers, two rear loudspeakers, one center loudspeaker and a subwoofer.
The subwoofer will produce the lowest frequencies when necessary and is designed to function in
harmony with the other Final Sound loudspeakers.
Also, most of our electrostatic panels need a subwoofer for reproducing the lowest frequencies.
What are the roles of the six loudspeakers in a home theatre system?
Your main channels, e.g. the left and right loudspeakers, will handle the larger special effects, the
musical score, and any left and right effects.
The center channel will handle almost all the dialogue as well as 60-70% of the main action on the
screen.
The rear channels are for ambient effects or to recreate different settings, as well as the screen action
that is recorded to happen at the rear of the listener.
The subwoofer handles the extremely low frequencies such as the explosions in an action film or the
deepest rumble of a bass drum.
What is “timbre matching”?
This means that all of the loudspeakers in a home theater system have the same sound characteristics
or voicing. This allows for a smooth, convincing transitions between left, center, right, and
rear/surround channels.
Are Final loudspeakers suitable for Dolby Digital AC-3, DTS, etc.?
Yes. Final loudspeakers are very accurate to be used with any decoding system designed for the home
theater.
Can my Final Sound loudspeaker be updated?
Absolutely. Technology continues to develop, including that of electrostatic loudspeakers. For this
reason, Final Sound loudspeaker are constructed in a way such that it is easy to renew and replace
components. Not only does this restrict maintenance costs; it also offers you the opportunity to modify
your loudspeaker to keep them thoroughly up-to-date. Your Final Sound dealer can carry out these
updates for you.
What is the warranty?
Your Final Sound Home theatre system can be provided with limited 3-year warranty coverage on the
flat-panel loudspeakers and 1-year warranty coverage on the subwoofer if the registry card in the
manual is completed and returned to Final Sound. The limited warranty will not be honored when the
