CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated ‘dangerous voltage’ within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
CAUTION: In Canada and the USA, to prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot in the socket and insert the plug fully into the socket.
Important safety instructions
This product is designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. However, you should be aware of the following installation and operation precautions.
1. Take heed of warnings and instructions
It is important that you:
A. read all the safety and operating instructions
before operating this speaker. B. keep this handbook for future reference. C. follow all instructions and adhere to all warnings
in the handbook or on the speaker.
2. Water and moisture
Do not use this speaker near water. The presence of electricity near water can be
dangerous – for example next to a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.
3. Object or liquid entry
Take care that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled, dripped or splashed into the enclosure through any openings. Liquid-filled objects such as vases should not be placed on the equipment.
4. Ventilation
Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Do not place the equipment on a bed, sofa, rug or similar
soft surface, or in an enclosed bookcase or cabinet, since ventilation may be impeded. We recommend a minimum distance of 50mm around the sides and top of the appliance to provide adequate ventilation.
5. Heat
Do not install the speaker near any heat producing equipment such as radiators, stoves or other appliances (including other amplifiers) that produce heat.
6. Climate
The appliance has been designed for use in moderate climates.
7. Siting the unit
The unit is not designed for placing in a rack or stand. It should be placed directly on the floor and sited where electrical and other leads do not cause a trip hazard.
8. Power sources
The speaker is supplied with a market-suitable electrical plug. Do not substitute or modify the supplied plug – see your dealer if a replacement is required.
This product is a Class II or double insulated electrical appliance. It has been designed in such a way that it does not require a safety connection to electrical earth (U.S. = ground).
The primary method of isolating the Logo speaker unit from the mains supply is to use the switch on the rear of the unit. The Logo speaker unit must be installed in a manner that makes plug disconnection possible.
9. Power-cord protection
Power supply cords should be routed so that they are protected against being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs and the point where they exit from the speaker.
10. Protection from electrical storms
Unplug the speaker during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
11. Abnormal smell
If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from the appliance, turn the power off immediately and unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer immediately.
12. Cleaning
Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning. The case should normally only require a wipe with a
soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use paint thinners or other chemical solvents for cleaning.
We do not advise the use of furniture cleaning sprays or polishes as they can cause indelible white marks if the unit is subsequently wiped with a damp cloth.
13. Servicing and repair
Refer all servicing to qualified servicing personnel. Servicing is required when: the speaker has been
damaged in any way, such as:
A. the power-supply cord or the plug has been
damaged, or
B. liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen
into the enclosure, or
C. the appliance has been exposed to rain or
moisture, or
D. the appliance does not appear to operate
normally or exhibits a marked change in performance, or
E. the appliance has been dropped or the
enclosure damaged.
Safety compliance
This product has been designed to meet the IEC 60065 international electrical safety standard.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

... and congratulations for buying the Arcam Logo sub-bass loudspeaker system.
Logo can extend the bandwidth of your main (satellite) speakers by accurately revealing the low frequency components of stereo and surround-sound programme sources. It also offers a separate but concurrent LFE (low frequency effects) connection – this is a channeI intended by the recording engineer to be exclusively reproduced by a subwoofer. Logo’s own volume control permits the level to be adjusted independently to achieve a perfect balance in the listening room.
Logo features its own 200W amplifier which is close-coupled to a downward-facing long-excursion driver that takes full advantage of the latest materials technology and a sophisticated braced cabinet design. The bass response is actively corrected by a Linkwitz transform crossover circuit to give a Bessel alignment: this minimizes time distortion for accurate bass transients. The result is a performance of great power and musicality.
Please take a moment to read this handbook, as the advice that it contains will help you get the maximum benefit from your purchase.
