The Importance Of Wires

Interconnect  and  speaker  wires  are  an  important  element  in  your
stereo  system.  Interconnects  are  available  which  will  permit  a
reference  quality  system  to  blossom  and  fulfill  its  promise  of
musical reality. Others will strangle the system to the point where it
becomes  little  better  than  average.  To  complicate  matters,  our
experience  suggests  that  the  choice  of  interconnects  will  be
system dependent - those that are top ranked on one system may
be  a  poor  choice  for  a  different  system.  Consult  your  conrad-
johnson dealer for recommendations for your specific system.

Performance Tip

Warm  up  the

CAV45

  before  listening:  The  sonic  performance  of

the

CAV45

  improves  noticeably  as  the  unit  warms  up.  The

midrange  becomes  more  lucid,  the  highs  smoother,  and  the
soundstage expands. The warm up period can be expected to last
about fifteen minutes.
