Running-in period
Polyglass drive units use the very latest components. To ensure such complex mechanical
elements work in harmony with each other, they must be allowed to function correctly in this
environment. Such changes in temperature and humidity are regarded as very hostile. For
Polyglass speakers to benefit, a running-in period must be used to ensure they are prepared
for this. We recommend that once the system is ready for listening the drive units should be
run-in with medium volume setting, with music that has the full bandwidth of frequencies (sub-
bass through to treble). This running-in period should be used for a few weeks, to gain the
full potential. After which the excellent performance of your Polyglass products can be fully
appreciated.
What is the power for your amplifier?
Polyglass speakers are already highly efficient, with improved sensitivity. Therefore, their use
with a high power head unit will produce comfortable listening pleasure.
However used in a more high-end system, with separate amplification, the audio quality will
be greatly improved. It is very important to know the rated power of the amplifier is suitable for
the speakers used. Otherwise your speakers may distort, or possible damage could occur.
Always consult the owners manual of the principal source (head unit/amplifier), to ensure the
power rating is compatible. A safe guide is to ensure the maximum power of the amplifier is
not greater than the nominal power of the speakers.
Conditions of warranty
In the unlikely event of any problem, please contact your Focal retailer. Outside of France, all Focal
speakers are covered by the guarantee drawn up by the official Focal distributor in your country.
Your distributor can provide all details concerning the conditions of guarantee.
