For WALTZ we use 4 mm banana connectors which do not oxidize, but contaminants or surface build-up on your speaker cables and connectors may degrade sound quality. The speaker comes with a set of two banana plugs in which the wire is inserted and held in place by screwing down the insert post. WALTZ offers two possibilities of input sockets, necessitated by the options of parallel and angled wall mounting. Both input possibilities are connected in parallel, which means, it does not matter which one you use, just do not use both inputs at one time.

CABLING

We encourage and recommend the use of high quality speaker cables and believe them to be an important tool for the enthusiast in obtaining maximum enjoyment from their music reproduction system. High quality cab-ling is a significant tool in the fine- tuning of any audio system.

As with any purchase, listen carefully and allow your ears to guide you.

It is beyond the scope of this manual to provide a useful compendium concerning cables, or to make specific brand or model recommendations. A number of high quality magazines do in fact list cable recommen-dations.

AMPLIFICATION

Our speakers demonstrate outstanding sonic results with a variety of amplifier types. They feature a combination 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 combination works well sonically for you.

Though rated amplifier wattage bears little correlation to either sound quality or drive capability, the user is cautioned that ampli-fiers of low wattage ratings, when stressed beyond their limits will produce audible amounts of distortion.

This distortion can and will damage loud-speaker components and will not be covered by warranty.

NEW LOUDSPEAKERS

Your loudspeakers contain a large number of precisions built moving parts. These parts require playing time initially to develop their maximum smoothness 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 have reached their full musical potential.
