DO NOT REMOVE THE SPECIAL ACOUSTIC FOAM ATTACHED TO THE
FRONT BAFFLE AND/OR GRILLE OF YOUR SPEAKERS.
This foam is a critical part of your loudspeaker system and plays an important role in its high
level of performance. It focuses the radiation of the tweeters, minimizes cabinet diffraction,
and provides the flattest possible frequency response.
