Protecting�the�Speakers�/�Operating�Safety
NOMOS LS speakers may only be used in combination with a K&F SystemRack.
In general, audio signals must not be overdriven. This may be caused by mixing consoles, equalizers,
effect equipment, etc. and should be indicated on this equipment. When a power amplifier is over-
loaded at the output (clipping), then the amplifier activates a clipping warning signal. In any case, the
signal must be reduced as soon as it sounds unnaturally distorted.
For�damage�caused�by
•
overloading the speakers
•
using the speakers without K&F SystemRack
we do not assume warranty and excludes liability for possible consequential damage.
The�following�signals�may�damage�the�speakers:
•
permanent high-level signals with high frequency and continuous noise from feedback.
•
permanently distorted high-level signals.
•
noises, which occur when the amplifier is on while equipment is being con-nected, disconnect-
ed or switched on.
Do�not�install�devices�in�any�of�the�following�places:
•
where the devices are permanently exposed to direct sunlight.
•
where the devices are exposed to high moisture or rain.
•
where the devices are exposed to strong vibrations and dust.
Damage�caused�by�the�speakers'�magnetic�fields
Speakers are permanently surrounded by a magnetic field, even when they are not connected. There-
fore, during transport and placement of the speakers, it is important to ensure that there is always ap-
prox. 1 m between the speakers and magnetic data media and computer/video monitors.
