RECEIVER SETTINGS
The recommended setting for the front, rear and center speakers is the "small"
position.
AMPLIFIER REQUIREMENTS
All ENERGY Speakers are designed to operate on a wide range of receivers and/
or amplifiers. The impedance for all models is rated at 8 ohms, allowing almost
any amplifier to function well. Of course, the better the amplifier and the system
components, the better the overall system will sound.
Warning: If an amplifier or receiver is over-driven, the resulting distortion is actu-
ally many times greater than its rated power. Over-driven amplifier distortion is
called "Clipping", easily identified by its fuzzy, distorted sound, and can damage
any speaker. The volume control of most amplifiers and receivers is a logarithmic
type, which means that full power may be reached with the volume control set
at as little as the halfway point. Operating the loudness, treble, or bass controls
increases power output well beyond rated levels. The warranty on your speakers
is therefore void if the voice coils are burned or damaged as a result of overpow-
ering or clipping.
