Troubleshooting

No Output.

Check that all your system components are turned on.

Check your speaker wires and connections.

Check all interconnecting cables.

Weak Output, Loss of Highs.

Check the power cord. Is it properly connected to the speaker?

If you are bi-amplifiying, check your high frequency amplifier. Is it functioning properly?

Exaggerated Highs, Brightness.

Check the toe-in of the speakers. Read Room Place- ment for more information.

Muddy Bass

Check placement. Try moving the speakers closer to the back and side walls.

Check the type of feet being used. Try attaching the coupling spikes.

If you are using the IIIx CROSSOVER, adjust the bass contour controls until you get the desired response

Lack of Bass

Check your speaker wires. Is the polarity correct?

Poor Imaging

Check placement. Are both speakers the same dis- tance from the walls? Do they have the same amount of toe-in? Try moving the speakers away from the back and side walls.

Check the polarity of the speaker wires. Are they connected properly?

Popping and Ticking Sounds, Funny Noises

These occasional noises are harmless and will nut hurt your audio system or your speakers. All electrostatic speakers are guilty of making odd noises at one time or another.

These noises may be caused by dirt and dust particles collecting on the speaker, by high humidity or by AC line fluctuations that may occur in your area.

Dirt and dust may be vacuumed off with a brush attachment connected to your vacuum cleaner or you may blow them off with compressed air.

DO NOT SPRAY ANY KIND OF CLEANING AGENT ON OR IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THEM.
