NOTE: When bi-wiring or bi-amping, ALWAYS remove the metal jumpers between the
terminals before connecting cables (see Figures 9C and 9D).
For bi-wiring, connect two sets of loudspeaker cables, one to the top terminals
and one to the bottom terminals of the loudspeakers. At the amplifier end, connect
both sets of loudspeaker cables to the same pair of terminals on the amplifier (see
Figure 9C).
For bi-amping, connect two sets of loudspeaker cables, one to the top terminals and
one to the bottom terminals of the loudspeakers. At the amplifier end, connect one
set of loudspeaker cables to one amplifier, and connect the other set of cables to the
second amplifier (see Figure 9D).

Like any mechanical system, a loudspeaker requires a "running-in" period to perform
at its best. You will experience a gradual increase in sound quality during the first
period of use. The break-in period will vary depending on use and playback volume. You
should expect up to 100 hours of playback until maximum performance is reached.
Unlike other mechanical systems, the life span of a loudspeaker is increased by
normal, regular playback of music.

If the loudspeaker cabinets are dirty, wipe them with a damp and well-wrung soft cloth.
Avoid touching the loudspeaker cones, as they are very fragile. If the cones need
cleaning, use only a dry, soft cloth and be very careful. Avoid touching the tweeter
domes. The loudspeaker grilles can be cleaned with a clothes brush and wiped with a
well wrung, lint-free cloth and mild all-purpose cleaner.

AVOID DIRECT SUNLIGHT
The surfaces of the loudspeakers may fade or become discoloured over time when
exposed to direct sunlight. Therefore avoid positioning the loudspeakers in direct
sunlight.
