The carbon panels actually improve in structural integrity as they age. The quality of 

the sound that you hear when you first use your Wilson Benesch speakers will improve 

quite significantly over time, though this change will not be instantly perceptible. Allow 

at least seventy hours of running in before making any subjective judgements of the 

speaker’s performance. 

 

Surface Finish 

 

Carbon fibre is a unique material with unusual physical and visual characteristics. We 

like to remain truthful about the fibrous nature of the material as opposed to 

concealing or obscuring it. The surface finishes applied to all Wilson Benesch 

loudspeakers require no further attention other than the occasional dusting. Treat the 

driver cones with respect and they will last a decade with relative ease. 

 

Due to the angle of the cabinet top the appearance of stains, as a result of a glass 

being placed on the surface for example is of course impossible. With a little care the 

speakers will look as good in ten years as they do today and will probably sound even 

better. 

 

Other Adjustments 

 

Under no circumstance should you make any adjustment to the system’s parts. Any 

adjustments not described as required by the setting up procedure will nullify all 

guarantees. 

 

Should there be any question regarding the performance of this system you should 

refer to your dealer immediately for advice and/or assistance. If in the unlikely event 

that the problem cannot be dealt with by your dealer do not under any circumstances 

return the gods to Wilson Benesch without prior agreement with the company. 

 

Connections 

 

This is a guide to the connections found at the base of each C60 speaker. When a 

single run of speaker cable is used the supplied jumpers must be placed to bridge all 

the negative and corresponding positive terminals. In order to assist in the fine-tuning of 

C60 within your chosen environment we have provided additional input options that 

allow for adjustment of the WB Tweeter output. When wiring the system please ensure 

only one of the positive tweeter connections is used at a time to achieve desired 

output (there should only ever be a maximum of 6 connections per speaker). The 

Sphere, ultrasonic generator) is fed from the unfiltered midrange input to allow for full 

frequency extension.
