14  Optional Tweeter Attenuation 

   

Th

ere are two principal reasons for needing to attenuate the Magneplanar 

Quasi-Ribbon Tweeter and Super Tweeter: 

A.  Pop or rock recordings o

ft

en exhibit a pronounced rise in the treble 

 

region. 

B.  

Th

e Magneplanar Quasi Ribbon Tweeter is very e

cient in its total energy 

 

dispersion. If the surrounding walls are exceptionally re

fl

ective, the overall 

perceived acoustical balance will be tipped towards a "hot" high end. 

Attenuation is performed through insertion of a resistor in place of the jumper. 

Th

e pair of 1.2 ohm resistors will attenuate the tweeter 1-2 dB. Other values are 

available from your Magneplanar dealer. 

16  Maintenance 

   

Light vacuuming of the grille cloth is possible.

* Because there are no universally accepted methods for loudspeaker 
measurements, frequency response speci

fi

cations may be stated by most 

manufacturers without reference to measurement techniques and/or speci

fi

locations in rooms. Magneplanar loudspeaker frequency response 
speci

fi

cations are average performance levels that may reasonably be expected 

in normal installations.
