Aftercare
The cabinet surfaces will usually only require dusting. Avoid products that are abrasive, or contains acid, alkali or
antibacterial agents. Marks on the paint surface may be removed with diluted soap solution. Remove any
remaining marks by spraying with a proprietary glass cleaner and lightly wiping dry with a micro-fiber cloth. Do
not use cleaning agents on the drivers and avoid touching them.
Keep cabinets away from heat sources (radiators and warm air vents) and direct sunlight sources. Avoid placing
loudspeakers in very moist or wet conditions. Expect some gradual color changes as the cabinets age. This is
normal for any wood furniture.

Running In
Markaudio-Sota speaker drive components are engineered to tighter tolerances than most other units. Careful
thoughtful running-in and general operation will be rewarded by many years of faithful service. Use low volumes
for the first 100 hours to allow the driver suspensions to adjust to their normal tolerance.
Over-driving loudspeakers (high volumes) risks damaging the drive units. It is also a major cause of human loss of
hearing.

Amplifier and Source Recommendations
Nearly all Loudspeakers are passive components. They can only perform at their best if amplification, source and
cable components are of high quality.
Careful and thoughtful choice of a suitable amplifier should optimise performance. Suitable amplifiers will range
from: Class A/B 50 Watts to 100 Watts per channel at 8 Ohms. Class A from 12 Watts to 25 Watts per channel at 8
Ohms and Class D from 30 Watts to 60 Watts per channel at 8 Ohms. Amplifier design and performance varies so
these recommendations can only be a guide.
Source components such as CD players, DAC’s and similar vary in performance quality. Take time to research
better quality components and recordings. Cables can also effect performance. Be prepared to experiment
with cables to suit your listening tastes
