Break In Period
Allow 18-24 hours of listening time to adequately allow the EW series speakers to break-in. During this rst 18-24 hour listening period, the driver’s
suspensions will loosen, resulting in an increase in low frequency response,
improved denition, and increased clarity and detail.

Care and Cleaning
To maintain the speaker’s high quality appearance, it is recommended to
regularly use a dry or slightly-damp so cloth to keep the exterior free from dust
or dirt. To clean dust from the grille, use a vacuum with a brush attachment.
Features
e EW series was designed to be mounted directly onto a wall, and coordinate
with at panel displays. ese speakers may be used for stereo, or can be
used in surround sound applications such as le and right front channels,
dedicated center channel, and as surround channels. e composite woofer
cone, fabricated from cellulose acetate pulp impregnated with mica substrate
and damped with carbon ber/resin polymer has a very high ratio of weight to
rigidity, permitting the EW series on-wall to deliver thundering bass response
in combination with breathtaking vocal clarity.
For high frequencies, a premium quality silk/polymer resin dome tweeter is
used. is tweeter uses a special magnetic liquid cooling to protect the tweeter
from damage and allow greater power handling.
e EW series specialized crossover design allows the speaker to be used
horizontally or vertically. e crossover system enables at frequency response
with either placement.
The EW series’ sealed cabinet, constructed from extruded aluminum,
eliminates midrange resonances, and the narrow prole minimizes cabinet
diraction. e speakers virtually disappear, leaving only a deep, wide sound
stage with pinpoint imaging.
System Setup
In order to extract the best possible sound from your speaker system, it is
important to determine where the speakers will sound best in your listening
room. Room reections from the oor, ceiling and side walls will inuence
the balance, imaging and overall sonic quality of the listening experience. It
is suggested you experiment with dierent speaker placement possibilities to
determine which location oers the best overall sound. Since the EW series
is designed to be installed next to at-panel televisions or displays such as
plasma and LCD monitors, this may dictate placing the speakers on each side
of the television, and either above or below if used as a center channel.
