Description
Model AW-424 Indoor/Outdoor Speaker System
Congratulations on your purchase of the Atlantic Technology AW-424
indoor/outdoor speaker system. Utilizing tough, environmentally-resistant
materials and state-of-the-art acoustic design, the AW-424 lets you take
Atlantic’s famous sound outdoors.
The advanced design of these speakers deliver detailed, articulate sound, for
a dramatic listening experience. Each speaker contains two GLH (Graph
ite Loaded Homopolymer) 4 ½-inch (115mm) woofers, and an advanced
1” (25mm) ferrofluid-cooled, damped soft dome tweeter with a powerful
neodymium magnet structure. The drivers are mounted in an acoustically
inert, heavily-reinforced enclosure made from mineral-filled polypropylene.
This is a far more neutral, less “ringy” material than is typically used with
conventional outdoor speakers, and it contributes to the AW-424’s amaz
ingly musical sound.
All the component parts of the AW-424 have been designed for durabil
ity under harsh conditions: UV and impact resistant cabinets, aluminum
powder-coated grilles and mounting brackets, and gold-plated speaker
terminals.

Speaker Placement
Placement has a significant impact on the sound of your system. Please take
a few minutes to experiment with different speaker locations to assure that
you obtain pleasing sound and adequate coverage of your primary listening
area before you commit to running speaker wire and permanently attach
ing the mounting brackets.
The speakers should be far enough apart (6 to 10 feet, 2-3 meters is usually
best) that you get a good stereo “image” when they are playing, but not so far
apart that the sound seems to come only from each individual speaker.
Wall- or corner-mounting will tend to increase the speaker’s apparent bass
output compared to a free-standing speaker, so take this into consideration
when choosing a mounting location.
Although the AW-424 speakers are constructed of the highest quality
materials, common sense should be observed when using them. Place
ment under the eaves reduces the speaker’s exposure to direct sunlight and
precipitation, which tends to increase the speaker’s life and minimize any
potential weather-related wear and tear. (See figure 2)
