A Few Suggestions

We recommend that you do not operate your speakers or
subwoofer with the bass, treble and loudness controls set to 
full boost. This will place undue strain on your electronics and
speakers and could damage them.

The volume control setting on your processor/preamp or

receiver is not a specific indication of the overall loudness level
of the speakers.The only important consideration is the loudness
level at which the system can be played, regardless of where the
volume control is set.

Always turn down the volume control setting on your processor/

preamp or receiver when changing a cassette or CD, or
switching inputs to AM or FM operation. Excessively loud
transients (clicks or popping sounds) can damage the satellite
speakers and possibly the subwoofer.

Important!

Whenever changing cables, pulling plugs, etc., ALWAYS TURN
OFF ALL EQUIPMENT, including the subwoofer.This prevents
transients from entering the speakers and prevents electrical
energy from reaching you. Keep all connections out of the reach
of children.
