HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR SPEAKERS

Use a soft terry cloth towel slightly dampened with water, glass cleaner, or a diluted
mild detergent. The towel should be just damp enough to wipe the surface clean without
leaving a trail of moisture.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or any cleaner containing chemicals harsher than those
found in glass cleaner.

LISTENING LEVELS AND POWER HANDLING

The power recommendation for the system assumes you will operate the amplifier in a
way that will not produce distortion. All speakers can be damaged by even a modest
amplifier if it is producing distortion. If you hear a gritty noise or other signs of strain,
turn down the volume. Prolonged or repeated operation of your speakers with a
distorted signal can cause damage that is not covered by the warranty. It is especially
important that you do not overdrive the bass capability of smaller speakers. Watch for
noises, such as pops, caused by the music’s bass line. Use of the loudness control and/or
full bass boost at louder volumes is likely to overdrive the woofer. Use such controls
sparingly.
