Running-in period
The drivers used in the loudspeaker are complex mechanical devices and require run-in period before they deliver
their best performance. They must get adapted to the tem-perature and humidity conditions of their environment.
This breaking-in period depends on the encountered conditions and can last several weeks. In order to shorten
this period, we advise you to let your loudspeakers operate for about twenty hours at medium level, playing standard
musical programmes, but with a large amount of bass.
Once the components of the loud-speakers are completely stabilized, it is possible to enjoy the real performance of
your loudspeakers.
User precautions
All the products are lacquered in order to offer a resistant cabinet surface and to make the upkeep easy.
We recommend the use of a dry cloth to dust your pair of loudspeakers. If the loudspeaker is stained, then use a
damp cloth. Never use any solvents, detergents, alcohol or corrosive products, scrappers or scouring powder to
clean the surface of the loudspeaker. Avoid placing the loudspeakers near a heat source.
