Introduction
hank you for purchasing
Model Six loudspeakers by
Henry Kloss. More than 30
years ago, Henry Kloss
T
designed the now-legendary
KLH™ Model Six, the first speaker
system to exploit the potential of
two-way design to provide
extraordinary performance at a
moderate cost. A decade later, he
took the two-way concept still
further with The Advent
Loudspeaker, one of the bestselling speaker models of
all time.
Today Henry Kloss has come
full circle to yet again exploit the
cost/performance advantages of a
properly conceived two-way
loudspeaker. The result is
Cambridge SoundWorks’ Model
Six loudspeakers, a basic twoway system named in honor of
his first ground-breaking twoway system.

Unpacking The System
1. Upon unpacking your Model
Six loudspeakers please
examine them carefully for any
signs of shipping damage. If
there is evidence of shipping
damage, do not discard the
shipping carton, do not install
or use the Model Six loudspeakers, and contact the store
where you purchased the
system or call your Cambridge
SoundWorks Audio/Video
Consultant immediately at
1-877-YES-HIFI. Your Audio/
Video Consultant will tell you
how to proceed and will help
minimize any inconvenience.
2. Check to make sure the box
includes eight rubber feet.
Simply peel the feet off their
backing, and place them near
the corners on the bottom of
each speaker.
3. We suggest that you keep the
shipping carton and packing
materials in case you later
move, or have to ship your
speakers.

About Amplifier Power
The amount of amplifier or
receiver power needed to drive the
Model Six loudspeakers satisfactorily varies significantly with such
factors as the size of the listening
room, its acoustics and furnishings, the type of music you like to
listen to, and most importantly,
how loud you like to play it. Power
requirements can range from 20 to
150 watts per channel.
The Model Six loudspeakers can
be used safely to play music with
the most powerful amplifiers and
receivers designed for home
listening. However, take reasonable care to prevent strong nonmusical transients. Keep the
volume turned down when
connecting or disconnecting
components, raising or lowering
your turntable’s tonearm, and so
on. This will help protect your ears
as well as the speakers.
If at a given volume level the
sound is consistently “grainy” or
“gritty,” you may be overdriving
your amplifier or receiver. Back off
on the volume control until the
symptoms disappear. If that is not
loud enough for you, you may
need a more powerful amplifier or
receiver for satisfactory results.
Call your store or a Cambridge
SoundWorks Audio/Video Consultant, who will advise you on how
much power would be appropriate
for your particular circumstances.
Cleaning The Cabinets
If more than dusting is needed, the
finish on your Model Six loudspeakers can be cleaned with a window or
vinyl cleaning product. Avoid spraying the cleaner directly on the
speaker grilles to prevent damage
to them or the speaker.
