Conventions used in this manual
The following conventions are used in this manual.
- Buttons, connectors and other physical parts of this unit are written using a bold font like this: POWER switch.
Precautions for placement and use
- The operating temperature range of this unit is 5–35 °C.
- Do not install this unit in the following types of locations. Doing so could degrade the sound quality and/or cause malfunctions.
Places with significant vibrations
Near windows or other places exposed to direct sunlight
Near heaters or other extremely hot places
Extremely cold places
Places with bad ventilation or high humidity
- To enable good heat dissipation, do not place anything on top of the unit.
- Do not place the unit on top of a power amplifier or other device that generates heat.
- If this unit is placed near a power amplifier or other device with a large transformer, it could cause a hum. If this occurs, increase the distance between this unit and the other device.
- This unit could cause color irregularities on a TV screen or noise from a radio if used nearby. If this occurs, use this unit farther away.
- This unit might produce noise if a mobile phone or other wireless device is used nearby to make calls or send or receive signals. If this occurs, increase the distance between this unit and those devices or turn them off.
Beware of condensation
If the unit is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the unit sit for one or two hours at the new room temperature before using it.
Cleaning the unit
Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the unit clean. Do not wipe with chemical cleaning cloths, thinner, alcohol or other chemical agents. Doing so could damage the surface or cause discoloration.

Preparation
Precautions before making connections
- When unpacking a speaker from its box, do not hold it by its tweeter or woofer units.
- Connect signal cables and power cords so that they will not become caught on anything.
- Before turning the built-in amplifier on, minimize the volume of the input signal. Turning it on while inputting a loud signal could damage the speaker.
-
Do not continuously use it for a long time at a loud volume. Doing so could harm your hearing.
-
This speaker system has been magnetically shielded, but when used with some types of televisions and monitors, the on-screen image could be affected.
Before determining the final installation position, try various installation configurations and positions. - Use power cords, power outlets, audio signal cables and connectors that are undamaged and free of wiring shorts and other defects.
- Set the power switch to OFF before connecting the power cord.
- Do not input signals other than audio signals.
- Before connecting an audio signal to this unit, confirm that the level of the input signal is minimized and the power switch of the built-in power amplifier is set to OFF.
• Always use the correct polarity.
Connections
- Set the POWER switch to OFF.
- Connect the included power cord to the speaker and then to the power supply.
- Input an audio signal to an input jack (XLR or TRS).
Installation
Installing speakers correctly is extremely important. The volume of low frequencies will seem to change according to the positions where the speakers are installed. Test various installation positions to find the best places for maximizing the capabilities of the speakers.
- For a stereo set up, place the speakers so that they form an equilateral triangle with the listening position.
