AMPLIFICATION

Our speakers demonstrate outstanding sonic results with a variety of amplifier types. They feature a cominaction of high efficiency and gentle impedance curves that allow them to be used with either solid state or tube electronics.

However, it is still important to select an amplifier with care since the full potential of your system will only be revealed by quality electronics. Amplifier designs do have distinct and different sounds.

It is important to listen carefully to the match of amplifier and loudspeaker to ensure that the com-bination works well sonically for you.

Though rated amplifier wattage bears little correla-tion to either sound quality or drive capability, the user is cautioned that amplifiers of lower power ratings, more frequently than more powerful ampli-fiers, are particularly prone to producing danger-

ously significant amounts of distortion as they are stressed beyond their limits.

This distortion can and will damage loudspeaker components. This damage will not be covered under warranty.

BREAKING IN NEW LOUDSPEAKERS

Your loudspeakers contain a large number of pre-cision built moving parts. These parts require play-ing time initially to develop their maximum smooth-ness and extension.

Very audible improvements can be observed during about 30 hours of playing. Additional improvements will be evident after 100 hours of playing time, at which point the speakers will have reached their full musical potential.

MAINTENANCE

Your speaker cabinets can be cleaned periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use any chemical detergents. Should spots or stains appear, clear water can be used to gently remove them.

Should the bass drivers become dusty, it is safe to use a soft brush to clean the woofers.

Happy Listening!
