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, break-in is important!
Many of our customers break-in their speakers in by:
A) Leaving them on at moderate to loud listening levels when they are not home.
B) Leaving them on at moderate to loud listening levels while they sleep.
C) Running pink noise through them.
It is possible to reduce the volume level you hear, while still effectively breaking in the
speakers. Place the speakers face-to-face, as close as possible. Reverse the polarity,
(reverse + and - inputs), on one of the speakers. Putting the speakers out-of-phase will
reduce the amount of perceived sound, but the speakers will be working just as hard.
Be sure to restore correct polarity before serious listening!
These methods are not convenient for everyone and we understand this. But
please know that you will not know how good the speakers really sound until they
are fully broken-in!
THANK YOU!
