All full-range loudspeakers are fitted with a self-resetting
poly switch that protects the high-frequency driver from
damage caused by excessive power.
If a loudspeaker cabinet loses high-frequency output,
immediately remove power from the unit and wait for
two to three minutes. This should be long enough to
allow the poly switch to reset. Reapply power and check
the performance of the high-frequency driver before
continuing, with the power reduced to a level that does
not cause the poly switch to interrupt the signal.
