1 INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a Martin Audio C516 ceiling loudspeaker.  This is
a versatile flush-mount loudspeaker designed for high quality music and
speech reproduction in distributed sound systems.  It has been styled to
present a discrete, high quality appearance which will blend unobtrusively
into commercial and architectural environments.  

It features a 6.5" (160mm) 2-way drive unit utilising patented ICT™
(Inductively Coupled Transducer) technology. This size of driver has been
chosen to optimise the conflicting requirements of low frequency extension
and high frequency dispersion.

The C516 is available in the following electrical configurations:

C516

4 ohm

C516T

100V line (Europe and Japan)/ 70V line (USA)

UNPACKING

Each C516 is built to the highest standard and thoroughly tested before it
leaves the factory.  After unpacking the loudspeaker, examine it carefully for
any signs of transit damage and inform your dealer if any such damage is
found.  Check that the electrical configuration supplied (4 ohm, 70/100V
line) is the one you require.  It is suggested that you retain the original
packaging so that the speakers can be repacked and returned if necessary.

Please note that Martin Audio and its distributors cannot accept
responsibility for damage to any returned product through the use of non-
approved packaging.
