In common with many types of complex mechanical systems the 5000
loudspeakers will not deliver their optimum performance until they have
been in use for a certain initial running-in period. The correct performance
of a loudspeaker depends in part on the compliance of the suspension
materials used during manufacture and these will only attain their long
term steady state once they are operating at the temperature and modulus
of elasticity specified during the design phase. It can take several days for
a loudspeaker which has been stored in a cold warehouse to finally reach
room temperature and so we recommend at least 24 hours of normal
use for the drive units to loosen up sufficiently for them to perform as the
designer intended.
Running In
Cabinet Care
Clean cabinets only with a lightly dampened cloth. Do not use
solvent based cleaning materials. Never use abrasives of any
kind.
The cabinet surfaces will usually only require light dusting. Should an
aerosol or other cleaner be used, apply the cleaner onto the cloth first
and not directly onto the product. Test a small area first, as some cleaning
products may damage the finish. Avoid products that are abrasive, or
contain acid or alkaline agents. Do not use any cleaning materials on the
drive units and avoid touching them as damage may result.
Grilles
Grilles should only be cleaned using a soft brush when necessary.
If using the the loudspeakers with the grilles removed, remember to
replace them if pets or children are present.
Drive Units
Do not touch the drive units as they are easily damaged when exposed.
