Precautions for use
•
Do not strike the enclosure
(cabinet) or fro
nt
surface
Saran
Fi
ber with hard
objects. Doing
so
could
cause
scratching or damage the speaker units.
•
Avoid contact with rubber and vinyl for
l
ong
periods
of
time, because
it
could
damage the surface.
•
This product
has
been designed
to
minimize magnetic effects,
but
you
should not
pl
ace
ca
rd
s,
tapes and discs that
use
magnetic recording
or
other
it
ems that
are
easily
affected by magnetic force on
top
of
it.
Failure
to
do
so
could result
in data
loss
or damage.
•
Listen within
an
appropriate
input
level
range
from the amplifier.
Excess
i
ve
input
could
damage the speaker uni
ts.
Moreover, even
if
the input
level
is
less
than the maximum, signals
with a
frequent
clipping,
for
example, will
have a negative impact on the speaker
unit
s.
Please
be
careful
to
prevent distortion
of
the audio at the
amplifier.
Cleaning
•
When the surface becomes dirty,
use
a soft dry
cloth
to
wipe it
clean.
Do
not
wipe
it
with
finemeshed
cleaning cloths, chemical cleaning cloths,
thinner, abrasives or similar materials. Doing
so
could
damage the surf
ace.
•
Use
a
clothing brush or a
similar tool
to
remove dust that sticks
to
the
Saran
Fiber.
Setting
up
the
speakers
Precautions for installation
• Do not install in a location that becomes hot, including places exposed to
direct sunlight or near heating equipment. Doing
so
could cause damage.
• Do not install in a location that becomes humid, including n
ea
r humidifi
ers
.
Moreover,
do
not
install in a location that become smoky. Doing
so
could
cause
damage.
• Do not place obstacles between
the
speakers and
the
listening positi
on
.
Obstacles block
the
direct sound, which can change
the
sound quality.
•
Ideally,
no items
that
reflect sound or resonate should be in
the
nearby
environment.
For
example, gla
ss
doors sometimes resonate.
To
prevent
this, fix
them
securely or
use
thick curtains
or
similar materials
to
absorb
sound.
In addition, parallel walls make
it
easy for standing waves
to
occur,
so
place furniture
to
disrupt parallel surfaces and
use
thick curtains or simi
lar
materials
to
absorb sound.
Speaker placement
•
For
stereo playback,
the
left and right speakers should usually be placed
so
that they form an equilateral or isosceles triangle
with
the listener at
the top corner.

Checking
the
phase
If
the polarities(+/
-)
of
the
left and right speakers do
not
match, they
will
be
o
ut
of
phase and good stereo
playback
sound will
not
be possible.
To
c
he
ck
the
phase,
play
a
mo
no
audio recording that
has
strong
bass
frequen
cies
through one speaker and then both
speakers.
If
the
bass
frequen
ci
es
sound
is w
ea
ker with
both
speakers,
they
are
probably
out
of
pha
se.
If
th
ey
are in phase,
l
ow
-frequency
sound should
be
ri
ch abundant and the
stereo image
should be
placed
in
the
middle
between the
left
and ri
ght
speakers.
If
they
are
out
of
phase,
low
frequencies
will be missing and the
stereo image
will
be
unclear. In
this
case,
check the
polarities
(+/
-)
ofthe
connections between the
speakers
and the
amplifier.
By
reversing
th
e
polarity
for
one
speaker,
the
phase
ca
n
be
corrected.
Spea
ker
cabl
es
are connected
to
the
input
terminals
on the backs of the
sp
eakers. The red
terminal
is
po
sitive (+) and the
black terminal
is
negative
(-).Check the
se
carefully
when making connections.
