WARNINGS 

 
Hearing Damage

The Pinyon™ loudspeaker system is capable of 

producing surprisingly high sound levels and hearing damage may 
result if misused. Please read the LISTENING CONCERNS section of 
this manual for a more complete understanding of hearing damage 
avoidance and responsible playback. 
 

Lifting Advisory

Each Pinyon™ loudspeaker weighs approximately 

16 Kg (35 lb). It is highly recommended that you employ proper lifting 
techniques and have adequate help...especially if the loudspeakers 
need to be moved up or down stairs. 
 
 

Shock Hazard

Children should not be left unattended around 

electronic devices with accessible power and loudspeaker level cables. 
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, disconnect your amplifier 
from the power source prior to disconnecting or connecting 
loudspeaker cable. Do not expose loudspeaker to rain or moisture. Do 
not operate loudspeaker near a pool, bathtub or other standing water. 
Do not attempt to open up (or service) this unit beyond instructions 
contained in this manual. 
 

Note: 

The Pinyon™ is fully shielded and should not present any 

magnetically-related problems to local CRT’s, or other magnetically 
sensitive devices.
