For the 1st year of ownership, ACI also provides a unique Total Assurance Guarantee, (TAG). TAG

No warranty will be transferred absent this notification.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
All new speakers require a minimum of 60 hours break-in-time before
they sound the way they are supposed to. A speaker's performance improves significantly once broken
in. It is critical that you have at least 60 hours on your speakers before you evaluate them. Don't worry
if your speakers do not sound perfect the first time you play them. This is normal until they are broken
in. If you are having difficulty getting enough hours on your speakers and your 30 day return privilege is
getting near, call us. We will work with you. Please give us the courtesy of breaking the speakers in
before you determine they don't sound right.
Many of our customers break their speakers in by:
3
A) Leaving them on at moderate listening levels when they are not home.
B) Leaving them on at moderate listening levels while they sleep.
C) Running pink noise through them.
These methods are not convenient for everyone and we understand this. But please know that
you are not giving yourself, your speakers or us a fair chance if you do not break them in before critical
evaluation.
THANK YOU!
