Congratulations
Congratulations on your purchase of the
Alta Audio Alec
speakers. Your purchase indicates you are a listener at the
highest levels in the audio world. The
Alecs
will enhance your appreciation for all of the music you listen to. They are
designed to most closely match the sound of live music. Everything about this speaker has been designed with only the
highest level of performance in mind.
Before Beginning
Please make sure to inspect the speaker carefully. If you notice any damage please inform the dealer immediately. If the
loudspeaker was shipped to you, you must notify the carrier. Please save all packing materials. Should it become
necessary to transport this loudspeaker, proper packing will help to prevent damage. If the carton has strapping, slide
the straps off. Do not cut them so that they could be used for repacking if necessary.
Warranty
The speaker comes with a 90 day limited warranty extendible to a 5 year warranty when registered within 14 days of
purchase. The warranty is limited to defects in manufacturing and workmanship. Please be sure to operate the speaker
within its power handling parameters. Damage can result from overdriving the speaker, or the amplifier powering it, and
is not covered.
Full warranty information is located on the last page of this manual
Speaker Spikes
The speaker comes with 1 ½ inch adjustable spikes that are cone shaped. They screw into the bottom just inside of the
four corners. Four small metal pucks are also included for the spikes to sit on. Be careful, the spikes are sharp! You may
want to experiment with speaker placement before putting the spikes on the speakers. When the spikes are installed
you should hear increased resolution, detail and control.
Connection
The
Alec
uses two pairs of high amperage shielded 5 way binding posts allowing for several connections including spade
plugs and banana plugs. The top pair of connectors are for the tweeter, while the bottom pair of connectors are for the
woofer/midrange. Removable jumpers are pre installed between these connectors. To connect the
Alecs
to your
amplifier simply plug your + and – cables into either of the + or – connections with the jumpers inserted. The jumpers
are removable for bi-wiring or bi-amping. It is recommended that you wait until the speakers are broken in before
experimenting with choice of speaker cables. Use of cable incorporating filter networks is not recommended. The
cleanest conducting cable will sound best. The speakers will clearly show you how open and musical a particular cable is.
